I took my own off. There are many ways to hoist the bike but I used the two ratchet straps method. I only recommend this method if you have a couple friends to help or have good upper body strength. You will need to lift both ends of the bike a couple times to even out the stress on the ratchet straps unless you use the hooks at the end of each strap on the bike and run the strap through a pulley (the way I'll do it next time). It's not so bad going up. Coming down is more difficult  . Very doable though . Also, remember that the front axle is threaded "backwards" (Lefthanded?). I found it easier to remove the front wheel from the left of the bike. Whichever side you choose, I recommend tape on the caliper side of the spokes on the front. I tend to raise the rear of the bike only a few mm from the ground and remove the entire axle. This seems to help with removing the belt. Do NOT twist or kink the belt in any way. | ||

Just make sure whoever does it doesn't ruin your belt. Follow the manual to the T. Ride to the edge! Dave daves@h-dappleton.com | ||
