Question about MTB bicycle wheel self-release mechanism?
When I turn the lever to tighten wheen I cant close the lever, only if I leave it loose then it closes. This is on both wheels, is this normal?I dont want to ask at my local bike shop, he charges for information!
Sorry Im so thick, this is the first bike I've had with quick release mechanism!
Yes, the quick release MUST be lose before you clamp the lever down! Do NOT spin it tight then try to clamp it. The whole point is the clamping holds it in place. Releasing the clamp makes it lose to remove the wheel without spinning it off. The clamp should be firm but not super hard, you can break the thing clamping too hard.

Continental Trail King Foldable MTB Bicycle Tire with Black Chili (26x2.4, Folding) List Price: $59.95 Sale Price: $44.95 |
|
Continental 0100340 Trail King 26 x 2.4 Foldable MTB Tire with Black Chili and Apex touts it's own special blend of extra soft and tacky Black Chili compound. This special compound shreds the wet rocks, roots and mud like no Continental compound ever before. And unlike other soft compounds that go away quicker than the wind, this sticky one lasts. The sidewalls are reinforced with Conti's proprietary Apex design. Apex is a unique sidewall treatment that places additional material just above the bead where it helps to reduce pinch-flatting, while also stiffening the sidewall to improve control under hard-cornering and in off-chamber sections. The King is stout with an oversized casing and puts a massive footprint to the ground for phenomenal control. Specs: Weight - 850 grams; Recommended PSI - 45; Maximum PSI - 58; PU - 5. |
