Removing the front wheel

front wheel by turning it down 180˚.
You will now usually be able to see the
word 'OPEN' on the inside of the lever.
3. Hook the quick-release lever into the slot and turn it anticlockwise
until the quick-release axle protrudes from the axle hole about 1 cm.
4. Lift out the front wheel and remove the quick-release axle.
IMPORTANT
Detach all cables from the wheel (e.g. lighting cables), otherwise you
could tear them.
If your bike is fitted with rim brakes you must release them.
Alternatively, you can deflate the front tyre. Otherwise you
may not be able to remove the front wheel.

Replacing the front wheel
1. Apply a thin layer of grease to the quick-release axle.
2. Push the wheel into the front forks
and align with the axle holes.
3. Reinsert the quick-release axle.
4. Move the quick-release lever
to the open position.
5. Hook the quick-release lever into the slot and turn it clockwise.
This will screw the axle in the thread. Ensure that the wheel is
correctly centred.
6. Close the quick-release skewer by swinging the lever back 180˚. You
will now usually be able to see the word 'CLOSE' on the outside of the
lever.
DANGER
It should be so hard to close the quick-release skewer that you need
to use the balls of your hands (120 N: corresponds to a weight force of
12 kg). You should have the mark of the lever imprinted on your hand.
Otherwise it could open when you are cycling, which could lead to the
wheel becoming loose and cause you to fall.
