things every cyclist should know but nobody tells you part one removing your rear wheel can be a right pain in the but there’s actually an easy way to do it and it took me way too long to learn it the first thing to do is to make sure that your front chain ring has been changed down to that small ring the one on the inside next you’re going to make sure that you’ve changed your gears all the way down to the smallest Cog and with both of these things done the chain should be nice and slack and this is what we need next remove your through axle or your quick release but just be careful here recently I shredded a through axle by using a cheap multi-tool once you’ve got the through axle or the quick release a you’re going to want to move the rear Mech all the way back this shouldn’t require a lot of force once you’ve got it as far back as it will go the wheel should just drop out nice and easily just make sure the chain doesn’t get tangled and then to put it back on again it’s just the same in Reverse there’s probably other ways of doing this so let me know if you’ve got a different way but I hope you find this useful and I will catch you in the next episode make sure you’re following

Somebody do this for me, so effortless
Yep. That's how you do it. And you keep your chain nice and clean so you don't have to get grease all over your hand.
Keep it on the lowest cog and put it back on the lowest cog and it goes right in.
Figured this out when i was 7. Guess im just on a different level 😂😂
Every bike owner should know this.
does the 105 have a button
Thank you
Do it on the road no service stand

Sorry, but what you need to remove the rear wheel for?🤔 In like 4 years of owning my bike I've never touched the rear wheel. Even the tire isn't bald yet
Are closed axle holes on the frame common now? I’ve never seen that except on BMX bikes. Every bike I’ve ever had either had horizontal or vertical dropouts, so you don’t need to remove the axle (whether bolt-on or quick-release), just loosen it. Or, if there are lawyer lips on the dropout, loosen it a whole bunch.
Tanks
My buddy stripped all the Allen bolts on his bike using SAE (US) instead of metric… lol
My e-bike doesn’t have the front deraileur
When you're out and about.. puttin the bike upside down does make it a bit harder to get the rear wheel out..
.. just dont start pushing with the massively cross-chained gears afterwards ..
They need to add chain hangers back on the right seat stay like they used to. You put the chain on the hanger to get it out of the way and just drop the wheel and I think it would work just as well with the through axle system. Taking the back wheel off was just as easy as taking the front wheel off or nearly as.
Putting it back on is not so easy. I’m trying and trying and still get hung up.
Yes! Now that was easy!
Thing is, it's always a little trickier when you're on the side of a road, in the rain, it's pitch black and you're in your Sunday best.
Wow rear wheel has always given me ptsd. Is it that easy? Will try next time
✨️ OBAMNA ✨️
I have my bike upside down when I work on it … makes things wayyy easier. Except when I’m servicing the forks or stem or neck. That bike is right side up lol
Aye, but can you do it in battle. By the side of the road, when it matters?!?
Seeing you wash your bike with water while it is still together has removed all of your credibility 😂
