correctly.
Removing a disk brake or rim brake Rear Wheel
If you have a multi-speed bike with a derailleur gear system: shift the rear
derailleur to high gear (the smallest, outermost rear sprocket). If you have an
internal gear rear hub, consult your Whyte dealer or the hub manufacturer’s
instructions before attempting to remove the rear wheel.
If your bike has a Fox or Shimano branded Through Axle retention device, carefully
note the current orientation of the cam lever, since it must be located in the same
orientation when refitted.
If your bike has rim brakes, disengage the brake’s quick-release mechanism to
increase the clearance between the wheel rim and the brake pads. Follow the manu-
facturer’s instructions or ask your Whyte dealer to make sure that you understand
the way the brake quick release works on your bike.
On a derailleur gear system, pull the derailleur body back with your right hand.
Move the cam lever at the end of the wheel axle from the locked or CLOSED position
(figure 10) to the OPEN position (figure 11).
For a Through Axle retention device (figure 9), unscrew this in an anti-clockwise
direction using the cam lever. Once the threads have disengaged, pull it out com-
pletely. For a Quick Release Skewer retention device (figure 10), unlike the front
fork drop-outs, there is no secondary retention device at the rear drop-outs. Conse-
quently it is not necessary to undo the adjusting nut.
Lift the rear wheel off the ground a few inches and remove it from the rear
dropouts.
Installing a disk brake or rim brake Rear Wheel
CAUTION: If your bike is equipped with a rear disk brake, be
careful not to damage the disk, caliper or brake pads when re-
inserting the disk into the caliper. Never activate a disk
brake’s control lever unless the disk is correctly inserted in
the caliper.
For a Quick Release Skewer retention device (figure 10):
Make sure the cam lever is in the OPEN position (see figure 12). The lever should be
on the side of the wheel opposite the derailleur and freewheel sprockets.
On a derailleur bike, make sure that the rear derailleur is still in its outermost, high
gear, position; then pull the derailleur body back with your right hand. Put the chain
on top of the smallest freewheel sprocket.
On single-speed, remove the chain from the front sprocket, so that you have plenty
of slack in the chain. Put the chain on the rear wheel sprocket.
Then, insert the wheel into the frame dropouts and pull it all the way in to the
dropouts.
On a single speed or an internal gear hub, replace the chain on the chainring; pull
the wheel back in the dropouts so that it is straight in the frame and the chain has
about 6mm (1/4 inches) of up-and-down play.
With a cam action system, move the cam lever upwards and swing it into the
CLOSED position (figure 11). The lever should now be parallel to the seat stay or
chain stay and curved toward the wheel. To apply enough clamping force, you
should have to wrap your fingers around the seat stay or chainstay for leverage,
