Rear wheel removal

Post by casamere » Thu Feb 22, 2018 2:32 pm

How easy is it on the Ca77? Does the rear cog stay in place on the chain or do I have to take chain guard off. Fitting new tires.

From memory, the sprocket stays in place. Pull out the spindle. Drop the spacer next to the brake plate. Pull of fthe brake plate (torque arm & brake actuating rod, too) and just pull the wheel off the cush drive.

Only thing I would add to G mans explanation is to back off the brake adjuster slightly, this helps the brake plate wriggle out of the drum easier.
