on the nexus redline hubs I have used the process was: - set the grip shift into 1st - pull the little bolt fixer-do-flochy to disconnect it from the rear hub bracket - take the wheel out - change tire - put wheel back in - put chain back on cog - reconnect the bolt fixer do-flochy - shift things to make sure the magic lines are aligned on the hub - bolt stuff tight after tensioning the chain - ride off. maybe there's a step I'm missing b/c it never took me much time to do it. -sv -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
