7. Checking/adjusting chain tension
Free play from the chain’s midpoint
should not exceed 20 mm.
The chain will be stretched during use.
Make sure that chain tension is regularly
checked and adjusted to maintain
optimum chain tension.
8. Attaching/removing the wheels
If a wheel needs to be removed, e.g. when a tyre is flat, remove the brake wire’s metal guide from
its bracket in order for the tyre to lift out freely.
• Front wheel change: Screw in the adjustment barrel
(8) on the hand brake as far as it can go. Pinch
the two brake arms together to remove the guide
from its bracket. Spread the brake arms apart.
• Rear wheel change: Screw
in the adjustment barrel (8)
on the hand brake as far
as it can go. Pinch the two
brake arms together to
remove the guide from
its bracket. Remove the
bellcrank (37). Use a 10 mm
spanner (see fig) and
loosen the bellcrank
locking screw (38) and
move the bellcrank to
the side.
Refit all the disassembled parts in reverse order. Remember to screw the adjustment barrel (8) on
the hand brake back out again and adjust the rear brakes for proper functioning after mounting
the rear wheel, see the
Checking/adjusting the gears
section. Check wheel alignment, see
the
Wheel alignment
section. Ensure that re-assembly was done correctly and check that
the brakes are functioning properly before riding.
