Dualdrive Hub - Bike Friday tikit Manual

DualDrive Hub

1. Shifting Rod
Underneath the click box is a
small screw head called the
shifting rod. The click box
pulls or pushes this rod in
and out to shift gears. Nor-
mally you do not need to
remove this rod to remove
the wheel.
However, be careful not to
bend the rod head. If you need to remove the rear wheel to pack
your bike, either remove the rod and keep it in a safe location or
put the protector sleeve (required for only a few bike models) over
the axle and pin head.
If you wish to add some oil to the hub, remove the shifting rod and
dip or coat the rod with good quality oil. See the paragraph on hub
maintenance for more information.
When screwing the shifting rod back into the hub, be careful not to
over-tighten. Just lightly tighten the shifting rod with a flat screw-
driver, until snug.
. Removing Rear Wheel
With the click box removed,
loosen the two axle nuts with
a 15mm wrench, a crescent
wrench, or your pedal/head-
set wrench in the tool pouch.
The wheel should slide out.
The axle washers have a tab
on one side. When reinstall-
ing the rear wheel, place the
washers on the outside of the drop outs (the part of the frame which
holds the wheels), with the tab pointed down and facing toward
the wheel. With the axle properly seated in the drop outs, tighten
the axle nuts securely.
Do not forget to reconnect the brake after installing the wheel!
