device. As its name implies, it serves as a

back-up for a critical adjustment. If the quick

release is not adjusted correctly, the

secondary retention device can reduce the

risk of the wheel

disengaging from the fork. Removing or

disabling the secon-

dary retention device may also void the

warranty.

Secondary retention devices are not a substitute for correct

quick release adjustment. Failure to properly adjust the

quick release mechanism can cause the wheel to wobble or

disengage, disengage, which could cause you to loose control

and fall, resulting in serious injury or death.

2. Removing and Installing Quick Release Wheels

a. Removing a Quick Release Front Wheel

(1) If your bike has rim brakes, disengage the brake’s quick-release

mechanism to increase the clearance between the tire and the

brake pads (See Section 4.C fig. 8 and 9).

(2) Move the wheel’s quick-release lever from the locked or CLOSED

position to the OPEN position (fig. 6). Quick release levers should

be embossed with the words “OPEN” and “CLOSED” to indicate

the current position of the lever.

(3) If your front fork does not have a secondary retention device go

to step (5).

(4) If your front fork has a clip-on type secondary retention device,

disengage it and go to step (5). If your front fork has an integral

secondary retention device, loosen the tension adjusting nut

enough to allow removing the wheel; then go to the next step.

(5) Raise the front wheel a few inches off the ground and tap the

top of the wheel with the palm of your hand to release the

wheel from the front fork.

b. Installing a Quick Release Front Wheel

(1) Move the quick-release lever so that it curves away from the

wheel (fig. 6). This is the OPEN position.

(2) With the steering fork facing forward, insert the wheel between

the fork blades so that the axle seats firmly at the top of the slots

which are at the tips of the fork blades — the fork dropouts. The

quick-release lever should be on the left side of the bicycle. If your

bike has a clip-on type secondary retention device, engage it.

(3) Holding the quick-release lever in the OPEN position with your

right hand, tighten the tension adjusting nut with your left hand

until it is finger tight against the fork dropout (fig. 6).

(4) While pushing the wheel firmly to the top of the slots in the fork

dropouts, and at the same time centering the wheel rim in the fork,

move the quick-release lever upwards and swing it into the CLOSED

position (fig. 5). The lever should now be parallel to the fork blade

and curved toward the wheel. To apply enough clamping force, you

should have to wrap your fingers around the fork blade for leverage,

and the lever should leave a clear imprint in the palm of your hand.

WARNING: Securely clamping the wheel takes considerable
