FRONT WHEEL

The Lefty fork front hub uses a self-extracting bolt to
attach the wheel to the Lefty's axle spindle. The bolt
is held into the hub by a cap that is screwed into the
non-disc side of the hub using a pin spanner tool.
The self-extracting bolt and cap combination is very
similar to that used on a crankarm, except, a Lefty
hub cap is reverse threaded. The cap should not be
removed; it is there to hold the axle bolts into the
hub. If you do need to remove the cap to replace the
bolt or bearing be sure to reinstall the cap with a
small amount of grease on the cap threads.
Remember that the cap is a left-hand thread.
NOTE :
It is not necessary to remove the front wheel to
change an inner tube or tire. Simply remove the
tire from the wheel as you normally would,
making sure to pull the tire off of the non-disc
side of the wheel.
Removing the front wheel
