Wheels off the nc30...?

Post by Danzio » Thu Jul 02, 2009 3:45 pm

Anyone know the easiest way to take both wheels off an nc30, what size sockets etc.

im assuming i'll need new bearings for the wheels when i refit and have a paddock stand which fits into the frame of my bike so shoudnt be too hard keeping it propped up :)

just getting tyres changed on saturday and dont want to pay and extra 40 quid for them to take the wheels off! :o

cheers lads :)

you need... a good paddock stand and a jack.

12mm for fork pinch bolts a 22 (or 24?) for the axle nut and the loosen this before you pick the bike up.

36mm for the rear socket.

bearings are inside the rear hub..you'll get round to them later. front bearings are easy to sort once the wheel is off.

jobs a good un..I'll have a bottle of dog please 8-)
