I ran over a razor blade the other night, yes a razor blade, and now need to pull the rear wheel off of my bike. I've never taken off the wheels on a bike and was looking for a "How to" or something along those lines. I did a search but did not find what I was looking for. I assume you just loosen the axle nuts, remove the brake caliper, push the wheel forward to free the sprocket from the chain, remove the axle, then the wheel. I really don't want to do about pulling the wheel and screwing something up lol

 

Only thing you missed is loosening the chain tensioners to be able to push the wheel forward.

When you do get the wheel off, do not lay it on the brake rotor. Or let anything put pressure on the rotor. Don't want to warp the rotors.

Spicy, you are FREAKIN awesome!

 

thanks,
let us know how it goes, best of luck, and take some pix

 

Here's the tire.

 

wow that's a nasty puncture.

I wonder if those car tire sealant cans would work with a patch.
Though a horrible idea, if you are poor like me it could be a temp fix as a commuter bike while you scrape up the cash to get a new wheel
