You can then remove the
front wheel according to
the steps listed above.
The following applies for rear wheels:
• If your bicycle uses a derailleur gear system,
change gear to the smallest sprocket. In this
position, the rear derailleur poses the least hin-
drance in removing the wheel.
• If your bicycle has quick-release levers or ax-
les, open them.
• If your bicycle has hexagonal bolts, then loos-
en them in anti-clockwise direction with a fitting
ring spanner or box-end wrench.
• Pull the rear derailleur backwards somewhat.
• Lift the bicycle slightly.
• Lightly strike the wheel from above with the
palm of the hand.
• Take the wheel out of the frame.
If your bicycle has a gear hub, please consult the
instructions supplied by your manufacturer for re-
moving the wheel.

3. Removing the tyre and inner tube
• Unscrew the valve cap, the fastening nut and
possibly the cap nut from the valve.
• Release all of the remaining air from the inner
tube.
• Insert the tyre lever opposite the valve on the
inside of the tyre.
• Insert the second tyre lever approx. 10 cm from
the first, between the rim and tyre. Lift the tyre
wall over the edge of the rim.
• Repeat this lifting action around the wheel until
the entire tyre is free.
• Remove the inner tube from the tyre.

4. Change the inner tube
Switch the inner tube for an intact one.
Tubular tires and tubeless tires must be
changed according to the tires and rims'
manufacturer's instructions.
5. Reassembling the tyre and inner tube
Please avoid allowing foreign bodies in-
side the tyre. Ensure that the inner tube
does not have any folds and is not
squashed.
Ensure that the rim tape covers all spoke
nipples and does not have any damage.
• Place one edge of the rim into the tyre.
• Push one side of the tyre completely into the
rim.
• Insert the valve through the valve hole in the
rim and put the inner tube into the tyre.
• Pull the second side of the tyre into the rim with
the balls of your hands.
• Ensure that the inner tube is correctly posi-
tioned.
• Pump the inner tube up somewhat.
• Check that the tyre is properly in place and
runs true using the control ring on the side of
the tyre. Adjust the positioning of the tyre with
your hand if it does not quite run true.
• Pump the inner tube up to the recommended
tyre pressure.
Please take note of the running direction
of the tyre when installing it.
6. Reattaching the wheel
Reattach the wheel securely back in the frame or
fork with the corresponding quick release, bolted
connection or full floating axle mechanism.
If your bicycle has disc brakes, please
ensure that the brake discs are correctly
secured between the brake pads!
Read the gear manufacturer's instructions to cor-
rectly and safely assemble and set up derailleur
gear systems, gear hubs and combined hub and
derailleur gear systems.
Tighten all screws to the recommended
torque. Failing to do so could cause the
screws to tear and components to come
apart.
