derailleur right to the outside where it does not
interfere with the removal of the wheel.
Open the quick-release of the wheel, as
described in the
chapter “How to use the
quick- releases”.
If you cannot remove the front wheel after
releasing the lever, this is due to the drop-out
safety tabs. They come as metal catches which
engage with recesses in the dropouts. Just
release the quick-release adjusting nut a little
and slip the wheel past the tabs.
You will find it easier to remove the rear wheel
when you pull the rear derailleur slightly
backwards. Lift your FISHAW electric bike a
little off the ground and give the wheel a light
blow with your hand so that it drops out.
Rotors can become hot, so let them cool
down before removing a wheel!
If you purchased a FISHAW bike with
hydraulic disc brakes, never turn your FISHAW
bike upside down for repair work, i.e., with
the handlebars and saddle underneath, as the
brakes will fail otherwise.
Never pull the (disc) brake lever while a
wheel is removed and always make sure that
you fit the safety locks before removing the
wheel.
Observe the instructions of the brake
and gear manufacturers; found on their
respective websites.

DISMOUNTING TYRES
Remove the cap and the fastening nut off the
valve and deflate the tyre completely. Press
both tyre sides from the rim side towards the
centre of the rim. This will ease the removal.
Apply a plastic tyre lever to one bead of the
tyre about 5 cm beside the valve and lever the
tyre out of the rim in this area. Hold the tyre
lever fast in its position. Slip the second tyre
lever between rim and tyre at a distance of
about 10 cm on the other side of the valve and
lever the next portion of the bead there over
the edge of the rim.
After levering a part of the tyre bead over the
edge of the rim you should normally be able to
slip off the whole tyre on one side by moving
the tyre lever around the whole circumference.
Now you can remove the inner tube. Make
sure the valve does not get caught in the rim,
as this can damage the inner tube. If necessary,
you can remove the whole tyre by pulling the
other tyre bead off the rim.
Repair the puncture according to the
instructions of the repair kit manufacturer or
replace the inner tube.
When you have removed the tyre, you
should also check the rim tape. It should lie
squarely in the rim trough, covering all spoke
nipples, and should neither be damaged nor
brittle.
In the case of double wall rims the tape must
cover the entire rim base, but it should not be
so broad as to stand up along the inside edges
of the rim trough. Rim tapes for this type of rim
should only be made of fabric or durable
plastic. If you are in doubt or if you have any
questions, contact your bicycle mechanic.
