1299 Rear Wheel Removal

Stand will be required for sure, or hoist/ramp..

 

Paddock stand ideally with a wheel stop handle, 55mm socket, torque wrench capable of at least 230nm's, breaker bar, (or an impact torque wrench), lithium grease, snips and a tie-wrap or lock wire..

 

Get a reaaaaaally long breaker bar!! Some arsehole must have used an impact gun or a silverback gorilla to put wheel nut on. I had to use massive breaker, a pipe and nearly 100Kgs of british meat to get the thing to budge!

 

To remove the wheel, no.

That tool would be to adjust the chain..

 

If your bike has a quick-release axle, before removing the rear bike wheel, you should begin by shifting into the hardest gear. Examine the quick-release axle to discover if your wheel has gone loose or has just dropped out. Before you begin, keep in mind that your chain must be at the smallest gearing and your brakes must be engaged.

 

That is for a Bicycle

 

55mm bi-hex socket.

Thank god for that. I was about to rush out and spend shitloads on a genuine DP QR axle

 

What’s the tie wrap for?

 

For 'just in case' securing the securing clip...
