Changing wheels

[Chalky.]

Got some SM wheels coming this weekend all being well. What's the best way to switch knobbly wheels and SM wheels? Seen one of those table type things that can lift the bike??

Cheers

Here's my method.

The bricks stabilise and lift it another bit. I was doing my Linkage bearings but changing wheels would work.

My road wheels will have a different chain and sprocket kit to swap with the wheels. Not sure if a second set of spacers would be a good idea or not yet as the other set seem fairly stuck in the hubs.

I'm having more fun than a well-oiled midget.

I lift mine onto a Youngman hop-up, it sits nicely under the bash plate!

I use one of these cheapy MX lifts, usually for pit bikes, but it has heaved my SMC off the ground a couple of times no bother. Only issue is I have to roll the front onto some 1" MDF, then put it on the paddock stand to get the clearance. So you may wish to check the description, your bikes clearance and possibly its sag before buying, as well as perhaps considering how SM wheels will affect some of those factors afterwards (otherwise you might find it still airbourne after fitting and lowering ).

I find it much better than: logs/bricks/gromit/swinging from a rope looped over rafters
