qr spindle

[Matthew Peake]

Hi all.

Just took bike out of box. Qr spindle to be put into front wheel. Stupid question. Do I need to leave the lock nuts on or remove them?

Not sure what you mean. You shouldn't remove any nuts which are firmly attached to the hub. These will be keeping the bearings in place. Your fork widths should be at the right gap to let the wheel slot in.

Pictures will help explain if you are still unsure.

Cheers keith

+1 for pictures.

But I imagine you won't need to remove anything from the axle, just slot the skewer in and tighten.
