helpful for just about everyone.
I hope you found this video helpful, let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks for Watching!

Your excellent tutorial helped me out of a tight spot. Today I had to do a roadside puncture repair for the first time and I fortunately watched your tutorial just the day before otherwise I wouldn't have had a clue. I managed to remove the back wheel and change the innertube successfully, a small triumph, but both are jobs previously done by my husband who died six months ago. It means a lot to me to have managed this by myself, so thank you! Cycling is what keeps me sane.
7:16 you are the life saver man.. You uploaded this 10 years back and your super easy to understand demo helped me to fix my rear wheel puncture ... Thanks a lot man..!! 👍🏻👍🏻❤️

Awesome. Nice work!
Been riding bikes for 55 of my 60 years and I just wanted a refresher on changing out the tubes and related rear wheel removal/install. Now that I'm retired to Florida, I can start riding again near beaches instead of on some of the crazy dangerous roads of where I lived in southeast NY. :) Thanks!
Haven't done bicycle repair for decades. This was VERY helpful and nicely done. Thanks for helping others with this very practical exercise!
The close ups and details on removing and replacing wheels etc were of great help.

A born teacher. Did not miss a single step! Excellent. Thanks. --kit J.
You just roundhouse kicked that tutorial like Chuck Norris, like no other bro thanks for being diverse with the different types of bikes.
Impressive how detailed your tutorial is. You took away the fear of the unknown. Thank you!
Just wanted to say thanks for the very helpful tuts on bike wheel removals and replacements on front and back wheels. I an 66 year old woman recently left on my own with no men around. both tires are flat and need to go to the repair shop. can't get bike into my trunk. your tuts are going to save me from asking a man for help.

🐚🦦Nice comment. Love the simplicity of bikes but so many bike people videos say nothing with bad rock music*. Worse, are the obnoxious ones speaking ad nauseam with silly face close ups. A Schwinn is a class act. This video reached that level.

That is got to be the best bike tutorial I have even seen
My bicycle had a flat back tyre. I scratched my head over how to dismantle the tyre until I stumbled upon your video. I found you are very coherent and your explanation is very detailed. Your video is just what the doctor ordered. Please keep up the good work.

Yeah without making it look like magic and only something he can do which we couldn't hope to replicate. Even tells us which socket size to use.
One of the best tutorials I have ever seen. Thank you so much! I feel very confident that I can now remove wheels across a broad range of bikes thanks to your sensible, down to earth, instructional.
You just saved me a couple hundred bucks from buying a car bike rack, this was the most informative video yet...thanks a lot man!...now I can store 2 bike frames in the trunk, with wheels.
This was an excellent tutorial. I got my son's tire off and on with your explicit instructions. Perfect!
This is the best tutorial on removing rear wheels. Easiest to understand.
This really helped me change my first rear tire just now. Thank you so much for sharing your expertise. Your video was easy to follow, and I enjoyed saving the $6/tire labor -- and for many years to come! Thank you!!

Really informative and so helpful. I spent an hour trying to figure out how ro replace the wheel. After doing this I found your video. My bad for not researching this first...
I have an older 10 speed. No quick releases. So, thank you for showing more than just the newer, quick release method. This was about the 5th video I clicked on trying to learn to do this very thing. This video was very helpful. Well done.
I appreciate the great detail and examples shown during this video. If someone is super rich, please surprise him with a 500K tip.
Fabulous!!!! Thank you so much for making this procedure much less daunting!!! Good close-ups and really clear instructions for this novice!!
Still helping people years after upload. Thank you so much. So useful, I dont understand the down thumbs lol.
This is why KZread will never die I have accomplished so many tasks by watching KZread videos on how to do it first and you sir have killed it great video thank you very much

It took me forever but this was the only video I found find that told me to unscrew both nuts and undo the brakes. Thank you so, so much!
Thank you for the information. I just started biking and wanted to learn how to do maintenance on my bike so I wouldn't be stuck on a trail. You made it very easy. I will be watching more of your videos. Thank you again.
Great video really helped me out, unlike all the other videos that just show the quick release
my son was about to be ass out walking to school but you handed it back thank so much it drives me crazy when people do tutorials and you can't understand them or they're going to fast where you have to continuously rewind and pause I had no problem with that. And for you I give a big thumbs up thanks great video
Excellent, clear tutorial. I have no mechanical skills but this KZread video makes me confident I can remove the rear wheel to replace a flat tire. Thanks!

Hello, CJ. Thanks for a very helpful video. I particularly appreciated you doing it in a realistic situation (outside on grass and not in a workshop with a support frame.)
thank you for taking the time and energy to explain all this. I found this very pleasant to watch, as well as helpful, extensive and manageable. you could also add fixies into this very informative demonstration as well.
Great Job, I really appreciate you showing the various bikes, as it provides a clear understanding on how to replace the rear tire on all 4 bikes in our home. Your voice was clear and I could understand you easily. Thank you
I watched about a dozen videos before this one. And this one is by far the most helpful. I had my rear tire busted this morning going to the pharmacy, and thanks to this video, I was able to get the tire off to fix it. Thank you.

Thank you for this tutorial. It's been a minute since I had to remove and put back on a back wheel of a multi speed bike and this was very helpful.
Thanks for this invaluable video! Managed to take the back wheel off of my mountain bike, replace the inner tube and slot it back in with no problem. I watched 3 other videos before coming across yours and I have to say that you explain things in a common sense, logical way, without missing out any details. Very pleased.
Thanks so much, none of the other videos included different kinds of bikes, mine is weird and couldn’t find one that related, I just successfully took my back wheel off!
Thank you! By far the best video I came across for removing the rear wheel.
10 years after and this video is still so helpful! thank you so much

This is the BEST tutorial I found on utube..very easy to follow and perfectly demonstrated.thankyou.
Seriously, who dislikes a video like this? I thought it was very informative and useful.
If you can make a video showing and describing the problem that you are having with your bike, I would be more than happy to take a look and offer any advice that I have. Thanks for watching!
thanks ! I was looking for this ! One thumb from me.
Just found this video over 8 years old, but a really nice instruction esp. with the different bikes. Great tutorial!

Hi there, THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU SO MUCH for this great video of how to remove the back wheel of a bike! YOU have no idea how much I appreciate it! This is the MOST AMAZING DIY video of how to remove the back wheel that I have ever seen. I was afraid to remove my back wheel of my road bike before I saw your video and it has been sitting in my storage room for years. Now I have confidence to remove and to replace back tire by myself.
I recommend disengaging the brakes. As shown in this video it only takes a few seconds to disengage and re-engage them. Pumping up a tire requires significantly more effort.
Thank you for the tutorial! I thought it was gonna be difficult.
This is super helpful and will save me $25 for a class. Thank you

Hi good video. My question is what do i do if i didn't change to the smallest chain ring before taking off my rear wheel? Am I screwed or is there a way to fix it. Please help me :(
@cjhoyle
8 жыл бұрын
+Greg S Read my responses to other people who have asked this question. Shifting to the smallest chain ring moves the chain and derailleur out of the way so it's easier to take the wheel off, but if you don't do this, it's still possible, just less convenient.
Thanks for providing an excellent and insightful video. It helped me to replace both of my hybrid bike tires in no time at all! 👍👍👍👍👍😎

Any advice you could offer to others who might have a bike similar to yours? I believe the instructions in this tutorial should have covered most of the things that you'd need to know for a 10 speed bike.

I have a 16yr old Schwinn this video was perfect for. The front tire is a quick release but the back isn't. I did have a bit of a problem w/ old parts being too tight & perhaps needing some grease, but once I fixed that it was easier.
Good day, sir. Thank you for the video. I have a question about changing the inner tube of a bike tire. Do I need to lubricate the inner tube with bike oil or something like that before put it inside the tire? Because the guy who sold it to me said that the inner tube can wear out pretty fast without proper lubrication. But, for example, in this video (kzread.info/dash/bejne/p5l7yNRwYLewcrQ.html) the guy didnt lubricate the inner tube at all. So what do you think? Thanks.

Excellent video! This is the best video that I have seen on the removal of the rear bicycle wheel. He has a very good way of breaking down the subject matter into layman terms.
Thank you for the tutorial you did a really good job of explaining how to remove the back tires and not messing up the chain system.
extremely good tutorial and the fact that u did this on a variety of bikes help with the average person. thank you very much for this. i learned a lot
Thanks a lot for showing us how easy it easy. With a little patience anyone can do it. I ordered my tubes on line and doing it myself saved me a trip to the shop and some money in my pocket!
I watched about 5 videos before finding this one and figuring out what I needed to do. Very helpful. Thanks :)
Fantastic tutorial!! I had that wheel off in no time, and putting it back on was just as effortless. Thanks!!
Excellent video and very clear instructions. I have taken off a lot of wheels but now I know the best way for speed and efficiency.
Thank you for this video! Getting the back wheel off was the easy part but getting it back on was tricky. This video helped made it really easy and saved me from having to haul the entire bike to a shop!
Best video for removing the back wheel that I could find! Perfect.
I just had my first blowout on my rear wheel today. I did remove the wheel and change the tube but man would it have been so much easier had I seen your most excellent tutorial first. Thank you so much for taking the time to post it.
Thank you so much, that was an awesome tutorial. Started riding my bike after twenty years and the tire blew out because the tire had basically rotted. Going to have no trouble now installing a new one. Thanks again, stay safe and healthy.
This saved me a lot of grief and made removing & returning the rear wheel a breeze. Thanks!
You could not have done a better job for my brain. Thank you very much for taking the time.
Thank you, this is definitely the final word on how to remove the wheels. Great video!
I have never done this before on my bike or any other bike. This was a great tutorial that helped me in removing the wheel in order to replace the tube. Thanks
Thanks to your video I was able to get my wheel back on after a spike adjustment. I appreciate it!
Thank you so much mate.. Easy to follow, no faffing about, concise and to the point...Excellent video....
you are the man! very clear and detailed tutorial. got me back on the road in no time!
THANK YOU! My inner tube popped a couple of days ago and I was going crazy just trying to find how to remove the gosh darn tire. I really appreciate it and it only took me 5 min to remove with this helpful video.
Thank you!! This was very easy to understand and I felt much more confident removing the rear wheel off my older bike to change the tire today.
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Your instfructions were GREAT ! I'm a 70-year old woman and my grandson is 14. He has a 10-speed that hs had a rear flat for over a month. Today our new slime tube arrived and we decided to tackle changing it with your guidance. Just like you said, we put it in the highest number gear, disengaged the brakes, loosened the nuts on each side and oulah. The rest was in reverse once we had done the change. I'm feeling so accomplished right now 🎉
Fabulous tutorial. Glad that you showed the various different bikes and not just the new ones. Thanks very much indeed. :)
I’m 10 years late to the party, but thanks for creating this crystal clear demonstration. Cheers!

Thanks. The back wheel is one which most amateur cyclists are reluctant to remove! Great video to keep handy offline on your phone while riding!
At first I laughed at the length of this video, but then I watched the whole thing and discovered that it is actually a very thorough and well edited video. Thanks!
Your video helped me very much. I needed help on an old mountain bike and most tutorials are for modern ones. Thank you.
Great job! I had to repair a flat and had no idea what to do. I was worried I wouldn't be able to reassemble the bicycle, but this video made it easy.
Thank you for posting this life-saving information. I have never changed a flat tire before and need to give it a shot now. Appreciate your effort!
Excellent tutorial! I changed my first bike tire at the age of 57.
I was struggling to put the rear wheel back until I saw your video !! I saw other videos too. Although they are all very visual your verbal instructions helped me better... kudos to you for saving my time !! Thanks !!
