7.3.2.1. How to Securely Fasten the Wheel
Open the quick-release. You should now be able to read “Open” on
the lever.
Move the lever back, as if to close it. Now you should be able to read
“CLOSE” on the outside of the lever. From the start of the closing
movement up to about the first half of its travel the lever should
move very easily, i.e. without clamping the wheel.
Over the second half of its travel, the force you need to move it,
should increase considerably. Towards the end of its travel the lever
should be very hard to move. Use the ball of your thumb while your
fingers pull on an immovable part such as the fork. In its end position
the lever should be parallel to the bike, i.e. it should not stick out to
the side. The lever must lie close to the frame or fork so that it cannot
be opened accidentally.
To check whether the lever is securely locked try to turn it while it is
closed. Press on the end of the lever from the front side.
If you can turn the lever around, the wheel is not securely fastened.
Open it and increase the preload. Screw the tightening nut on the
opposite side clockwise by half a turn.
Close the lever again and check it again for tightness. If the lever can
no longer be turned, it is properly fastened.
Finally lift the bike a few centimetres from the ground so that the
wheel is suspended and hit the tyre from above. If it is properly
fastened, the wheel will remain firmly fixed in the drop-outs of the
frame.
