Hi peeps

Anyone using a removable panel hook on a series 2? Which supposedly makes it easier getting the back wheel if punctured.

Thoughts/experiences

Thanks in advance.

Yes, that's the easiest option , you just need to remove between about 10 or 15 centimetres of metal from the outer bracket "hook" ,its a bit of trail & error until you can get the wheel off, done this on both my series 1's & its a big help ;)

I'm a little confused now! Is this with the removable hook or not?

Many thanks.

No, not as standard but you can buy a panel bracket kit off eBay that allows you to bolt/unbolt the bracket but you obviously have to remove the original bracket first to use one of these, or you could just modify the original one to make it removal ;)
