REMOVAL
To remove the rear wheel, place the bike in a stand.
In preparartion, the tension has to be removed from
the chain. Acheive this by disengaging the CT. Once
the chain is slack, it can now be removed from the C,
and out of the way for the wheel to be taken off. Use
a 5mm hex key to loosen the WS. Once loosened, to
avoid the skewer nut SN spinning on the oppposite
side, hold it in place. Then completely remove the WS.
For the wheel to pass the brake caliper, the tyre has to
be deflated. The wheel can now be guilded out with
little pressure.
