[QUOTE="user 213, post: 545750, member: 213"] Nice job Lee. Now I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure you're still going to need to remove the calipers before attempting to pull the wheel. The calipers will hit the rim. It's just a couple of bolts and they slide easily back and out off the rotors. I tossed my reflectors the first time, since you have to remove those first, at least on the Gen I bikes. Don't forget the brake lines too, you will need the extra play with them loose from the fork. I have a front wheel stand that I use when pulling the front wheel. If I'm doing both wheels, I remove the rear first, then the front, and replace front, then rear. This is because the front end stand reduces the clearance at the rear when you raise the front pivoting on the center stand. [/QUOTE]
