CAUTION!
A
Do not pull the (disc) brake lever with a removed wheel and make sure to mount the
safety locks when removing the wheel for a longer period of time.
NOTE!
I
Observe the manuals of the brake and gear manufacturers. For additional infor-
mation on your bicycle and the web links for the component manufacturers, please
visit the manual pages of the bike brand you have purchased via your Quick Start
Manual.
CLINCHER AND FOLDING TYRES
Tyre removal
Remove the cap and the fastening nut off the valve and deflate the tyre completely.
Press the tyre from the sides towards the centre of the rim around its entire circum-
ference. This will ease the removal.
Apply a plastic tyre lever to one bead of the tyre about 5 cm beside the valve (d)
and lever the tyre out of the rim in this area. Hold the tyre lever tight in its position.
Slip the second tyre lever between rim and tyre at a distance of about ten centi-
metres on the other side of the valve and lever the next portion of the bead over the
edge of the rim (e).
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 (f). 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 manuals of the repair kit manufacturer or
replace the inner tube by a new one.
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.
REMOVING THE WHEEL
If you have typical road bike rim brakes, open the quick-release lever at the brake
(Shimano, SRAM) (a) or shift the pin in the brake lever/shifter unit on the handlebars
(Campagnolo) (b).
If your bicycle has cantilever and V-brakes you first have to unhook the brake cable
from the brake arm. To do this, grip the rim with one hand and press the brake pads
and/or arms together. In this position the usually barrel shaped nipple of the lateral
brake cable or the brake hose (of V-brakes) can easily be disengaged.
If you have disc brakes (hydraulic or mechanic), check the position of the brake pads
through the inspection window. In this way you will be able to tell after the removal
whether the brake pads are still in their correct position. Read the brake manufac-
turer’s manual.
If you have derailleur gears, you should shift the chain to the smallest sprocket before
removing the rear wheel. This shifts the rear 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 chapterUsing quick-releases and thru axles”.
If you cannot remove the wheel after releasing the nuts, this is due to the drop-out
safety tabs. They are metal catches which engage with recesses in the drop-outs.
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 (c). Lift your BERGAMONT road bike a little off the ground and
give the wheel a light blow with your hand so that it drops out.
DANGER!
G
Rotors can become hot, so let them cool down before removing a wheel.
DANGER!
G
If you purchased a BERGAMONT bike with hydraulic disc brakes, never turn your
BERGAMONT bike upside down for repair work, i.e. with the handlebars and
saddle underneath, otherwise the brake can fail.
