Step 1: Prepare the Bike
- Turn off the bike and remove the battery completely.
- Press and hold the power button on the display to discharge remaining energy.
- If you don’t have a bike stand, gently flip the bike upside down onto a soft towel or blanket to protect the grips and display.
Step 2: Unplug the Motor
- Use snips or clippers to cut the zip ties holding the motor cable to the frame.
- Locate the motor plug and gently disconnect it. Align the arrows when pulling apart to avoid damage.
Step 3: Loosen the Rear Wheel
- Use a wrench to loosen the bolts on each side of the axle.
- Remove the nut and washer, sliding them down the motor cable.
- Slide the derailleur guard down the same cable.
Step 4: Remove the Rear Wheel
- Make sure the locking spacers are clear (a flathead screwdriver can help).
- Carefully move the derailleur out of the way and guide the wheel down out of the frame dropouts.
Step 5: Reinstall the Wheel
- Align the wheel under the frame, making sure the chain loops properly over the cassette.
- Slide the axle into the dropouts and ensure the locking spacers are oriented correctly.
- On the motor cable, reattach the derailleur guard, washer, and nut in that order.
Step 6: Secure the Rear Wheel
- Tighten the nuts on both sides of the axle evenly and firmly.
- Double-check alignment of the derailleur, chain, and spacers before final tightening.
Step 7: Reconnect the Motor
- Plug the motor cable back in, aligning the arrows for a secure fit.
- Attach new zip ties to keep the cable neatly secured to the frame.
