Hey, Please excuse my naiviety since I am fairly new to all this. I am happy enough changing the
front wheel. However, the rear wheel is a lot more involved - certainly on my bike at the minute. On
the latest road bikes, is it possible to get the rear off easily without having to mess about with
the rear gears/derailleurs? Is it just a question of whipping the chain off? I ask since I don't
have a road bike at the minute and am getting one soon.
On a similar vein, when BOTH wheels are off, is it possible to get a road bike into the boot
of a saloon car since I'm picking one up from London and don't have a bike rack for my motor
(Audi A4) yet?
When you clean the gears, do you completely srip the rear assembly and the front chainrings off and
soak them in diesel/petrol? Do you actually take the gears apart? I ask since I don't have any
biking friends to ask these questions yet.
Thanks guys, S
