You may need to tap the top of the wheel with the palm of your hand to
release the wheel from the front fork.
b.Installing a disk brake or rim brake Front Wheel
CAUTION: If your bike is equipped with a front 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.
See also Section 4.C.
(1) If your bike has cam action front wheel retention, move the cam lever
so that it curves away from the wheel (g. 8b). This is the OPEN position.
If your bike has through bolt or bolt-on front wheel retention, go to the next
step.
(2) With the steering fork facing forward, insert the wheel between the fork
blades so that the axle seats rmly at the top of the fork dropouts. The cam
lever, if there is one, should be on rider’s left side of the bicycle (g. 8a &
b). If your bike has a clip-on type secondary retention device, engage it.
(3) If you have a traditional cam action mechanism: holding the cam lever
in the ADJUST position with your right hand, tighten the tension adjusting
nut with your left hand until it is nger tight against the fork dropout (g.
8a). If you have a cam-and-cup system: the nut and cup (g. 8b) will have
snapped into the recessed area of the fork dropouts and no adjustment
should be required.
(4) While pushing the wheel rmly to the top of the slots in the fork
dropouts, and at the same time centering the wheel rim in the fork:
(a) With a cam action system, move the cam lever upwards and swing it
into the CLOSED position (g. 8a & b). The lever should now be parallel
to the fork blade and curved toward the wheel. To apply enough clamping
3. Removing and Installing wheels
WARNING: If your bike is equipped with a hub brake such as a
rear coaster brake, front or rear drum, band or roller brake; or if
it has an internal gear rear hub, do not attempt to remove the
wheel. The removal and re-installation of most hub brakes and
internal gear hubs requires special knowledge. Incorrect
removal or assembly can result in brake or gear failure, which
can cause you to lose control and fall.
CAUTION: If your bike has a disc brake, exercise care in touching
the rotor or caliper. Disc rotors have sharp edges, and both rotor and
caliper can get very hot during use.
a. Removing a disk brake or rim brake 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 g. 11 through 15).
(2) If your bike has cam action front wheel retention, move the cam lever
from the locked or CLOSED position to the OPEN position (gs. 8a & b).
If your bike has through bolt or bolt-on front wheel retention, loosen the
fastener(s) a few turns counter-clockwise using an appropriate wrench,
lock key or the integral lever.
(3) If your front fork has a clip-on type secondary retention device,
disengage it. If your front fork has an integral secondary retention device,
and a traditional cam action system (g. 8a) loosen the tension adjusting
nut enough to allow removing the wheel from the dropouts. If your
front wheel uses a cam-and-cup system, (g. 8b) squeeze the cup and
cam lever together while removing the wheel. No rotation of any part is
necessary with the cam-and-cup system.
