    My mechanic is travelling in tomorrow to help me put new shoes on the bike.
    He asked if I knew what sizes of wrenches he should bring to remove/reinstall the front and rear wheels.
    I have a manual at home, but will not access it until after he hits the road.

    I assume the rear will come off with the 4 lug nuts removed. Size?
    I probably have that socket though.

    The front axle nuts are the big question. What size are they?

    Also, is there any other hardware to remove for the front or rear wheels to come off?

    Thanks.
