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
manual of the brake manufacturer on this SCOTT info CD.
If you have derailleur gears, you should shift the chain to the smallest sprocket
before removing the rear wheel (d). 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 chapter “Using quick-releases”.
If you cannot remove the wheel after releasing the nuts, this is due to the drop-
out safety tabs. They come as metal catches which engage with recesses in the
drop-outs (e). 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. Lift your SCOTT 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 SCOTT bike with hydraulic disc brakes, never turn your
SCOTT bike upside down for repair work, i.e. with the handlebars and sad-
dle underneath, otherwise the brake can fail.
CAUTION!
A
Never pull the (disc) brake lever while a wheel is removed and always make
sure that you fit the safety locks (f) before removing the wheel.
CAUTION!
A
In the case of drum and roller brakes as well as of internal gear hubs release
the torque support (“brake torque arm“) supporting the drive and brake
forces to the frame. The shift cables and the click box must also be dismounted
before wheel removal.
NOTE!
I
Observe the manuals of the brake and gear manufacturers on this SCOTT
info CD.
DANGER!
G
Do not ride with untrue wheels. In the case of extreme side-to-side wob-
bles, the brake pads of rim brakes can miss the rim and get caught in the
spokes! This normally instantly jams the wheel and throws you off your bicycle.
CAUTION!
A
Loose spokes must be tightened at once. Otherwise the load on the other
spokes and the rim will increase.
CAUTION!
A
Truing (retruing) wheels is a difficult job which you should definitely leave
to your SCOTT dealer.
REPAIRING TYRE PUNCTURES
Punctures during cycling are the most common cause for flat tyres. However,
as long as you have the necessary tools and a spare tube or a repair kit (a),
this need not mean the end of your cycle ride. If your wheels are attached with
quick-releases to the frame and the fork, you only need two tyre levers and a
pump (b).
NOTE!
I
Before removing a wheel, read chapters “Remounting the wheel” and “Us-
ing quick-releases”. If you are in doubt or if you have any questions, contact
your SCOTT dealer.
REMOVING THE WHEEL
If your bicycle has mechanical rim brakes (cantilever and V-brakes) you first
have to unhook the brake cable from the brake arm (c). 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.
