2.3 Remove Wheel from Forks

After removing the axel from the forks the wheel will be released. In order

to properly remove the wheel from the forks you should follow these steps:

Remove Axle and Spacers

Ensure the axle and spacers are completely removed from both front forks.

 When removing the axle (number 24 in the picture) the spacers

number (12 and 26) will fall.

 The bearings (13, 14, 15, and 25) will remain

inside the rim protected from dirt and debris.

Remove Disc from Caliper

Pull front wheel directly forward to be sure the disc break

is not bent or warped.

 To the left is an image of the front caliper.

 Warning! The disc fits directly

between the two brake pads and must be

pulled out straight to prevent any

damage.

Prepare front Wheel

Prepare front wheel to remove the tire and inner tube from the rim.

 Deflate inner tube completely by removing the valve stem: Do

this by placing the two pronged side of the valve stem remover into

the valve and twist firmly to the left. Continue twisting until valve

stem falls out.

 Find a hard smooth surface (preferably concrete).

 Lay the front wheel on its side making sure to place the side with

the disc face up.
