REMOVE & REPLACE YOUR WHEELS
Be careful not to press the brake lever after removing the wheel. This may close the brake pads making it
difficult for the rotor to go back inside the pads.
REMOVE THE REAR WHEEL
1. Shift down to the smallest gear in the cassette.
2. Loosen the thru-axle on the wheel.
3. Grab the derailleur body and push down, then back and release the wheel from the dropouts.
4. Tilt the wheel and remove the chain from the cassette. Set the wheel and your eBike down with
the gears up.
REPLACE THE REAR WHEEL
1. Standing at the rear of the eBike, with the wheel between your knees, grab the rear derailleur with
your right hand and pull back and push down making sure the top of the chain drops over the first (or
smallest) gear on the cassette. Make sure the wheel axle fits all the way into the frame of the eBike.
2. Tighten the thru-axle bolts.
REMOVE & REPLACE YOUR TIRE
1. Deflate the inner tube.
2. Loosen the tire from the rim.
3. Use your hands or tire levers to remove the tire from one side of the rim. Do not use a sharp object
such as a screwdriver to remove the tire.
4. With one side of the tire removed, you can reach in and remove the inner tube.
5. To remove the tire completely use your hands or tire levers to remove the other side of the tire
from the rim.
REPLACE THE TIRE ON THE WHEEL
1. Take this opportunity to examine the tire and the rim for defects.
2. Inflate the inner tube just enough for it to take shape.
3. Place the inner tube in the tire so that it is inside the tire all the way around. Insert the valve stem
through the hole in the rim.
4. With your hands only, push one side of the tire over the rim. Make sure the tube is now inside the rim.
5. Push the other side of the tire over the rim.
6. From the outside of the tire, prop the valve stem up through the rim.
7. Inflate the tire to the pressure indicated on the side of the tire. Do not over-inflate.
8. Check to make sure the tire bead is set on the rim.
