2023 Subscriptions ginty001 Posted March 19, 2018 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted March 19, 2018 Hi, Anyone packed a bike with disc wheels into a bike box before ? Is it advisable to remove the rotors from the wheels while in transit ? Cheers Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2023 Subscriptions PaulL Posted March 19, 2018 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted March 19, 2018 Wouldn't worry about Rotors, wrap them in bubble wrap to stop minor bumps But you need to be really careful with your Hydraulic brakes. If you press the brake while on wheel is off and no rotor to engage this will mess up your Hydraulic settings and you will need a bleeding kit to reset it. Some people put folded cardboard inserted where the rotor would sit and taping secure but you can buy plastic spacers http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/hayes-plastic-pad-spacer-stroker-g2/rp-prod20019 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
