Front wheel removal ??
 
Looking to get new tyres on however, having an issue with the front wheel removal.

Loosen the pinch bolts, then unscrew the spindle yes ??

However, the spindle doesn't seem to want to unscrew, am i missing something ??

'Whoring' and 'tight' are two words not commonly used in the same sentence.

Hi...just took my front wheel out this week too, for the first time.

This is how I did it:

1. Take off the brakes.

2. Losen the pinch bolts.

3. Undo the axel bolt with a 14mm hex, possibly using a long breaker-bar (Halfords). Then the axel should unscrew out, be aware of the wheel dropping too.

4. The end.


A hex...I think that's what they're called.
