3.2 Wheel removal - OEM and OEM2 versions
No loosening of a torque arm is neccessary with these versions. Simply open the quick release lever (CC versions)
or loosen the axle nuts (TS versions).
On the OEM versions, the axle and
the support block are released
together from the OEM dropout.
On the OEM2 versions with
the axle
falls out of the dropouts at the
same time as the axle plate seat
falls away from the
support peg.

On the OEM2 versions with just a
support bolt, the axle falls out the
dropout at the same time as the
axle plate seat falls away from the
support bolt.
3.1 Removal of the wheel from the frame
Remove the wheel from the
dropouts and the chain from the
sprocket.
A chain tensioner prevents the easy
removal of the rear wheel (when
mounted). The chain tensioner
must be pulled backwards in the
direction of the arrow to allow the
sprocket to pass the chain
tensioner. When, however, it is a
DH chain tensioner, the mounting
bolt must be loosened before the
rear wheel can be removed.

1.2 Wheel installation - OEM or OEM2 versions
On the OEM or OEM2 versions, the axle and the torque support are installed together.
1.1 Wheel installation
Place the wheel into the dropouts,
taking care that the chain is sitting
properly on the sprocket and that
the hub cables do not get clamped
between the dropouts and the axle.
On the OEM versions, the axle
must enter the long OEM dropout
first, followed by the support block
into the same slot.
On the OEM2 versions with
take care
that the
support peg lines up with the axle
plate seat as the axle is entered into
the dropouts.

On the OEM2 versions with just a
support bolt, take care that the
support bolt lines up with the axle
plate seat as the axle is entered into
the dropouts.
After installing the wheel, close the quick release lever (CC versions - tightening torque: max. 7Nm/62in.lbs.) or
tighten the axle nuts (TS versions - tightening torque: max. 35Nm/310in.lbs.).
A chain tensioner prevents the easy
installation of the rear wheel (when
mounted). The chain tensioner must
be pulled backwards in the
direction of the arrow to allow the
sprocket to pass the chain tensioner.
When, however, it is a DH chain
tensioner, then the mounting bolt
must be loosened before the rear
wheel can be installed.
Before closing the quick release lever or tightening the axle nuts, check that
both sides of the axle sit properly in the dropouts and that the wheel runs in
the center of the frame.
