Wheels

To accommodate the Front Basket, the wheels are of different sizes. Consider this when buying spare tyres!

= Front Wheel =

The front wheel is 24 x 1.75 which is ETRTO 47-507

= Rear Wheel =

The rear wheel is 26 x 1.75 which is ETRTO 47-559

Changing
To remove or replace the rear wheel, you will need the following tools:
 * To remove the hub retainer (shown in the photograph):
 * 10 mm Spanner
 * 5 mm Allan key
 * To remove the wheel itself:
 * 15 mm Spanner

Spokes
There are 36 spokes per wheel.

These are arranged as 9 leading and 9 trailing on both sides of the hub. The spokes are laced to cross three other spokes before being tied to the wheel rim.

Tyre pressure
The normal tyre pressure for both front and rear tyres are between 3.0 bar (45 psi)min and 5.0 bar (70 psi) max.

Inner Tubes
The wheel rims are drilled to accept inner tubes using the Schrader type valves. The valves being the extended type, being between 32mm and 40mm long, and can be identified by having a knurled locking nut to hold the tube in the correct position when fitted.

Inner tubes are relatively easy to source in these sizes from most manufacturers.
