Message: I've worked on a few Autobikes but haven't had to do wheel work on them yet. Check to see if you are lucky--that is, that the holes for spokes in the right-hand flange of the rear hub are slots with "keyholes" in the middle of them instead of just small round holes, this means that a spoke can be replaced by just hooking the head of the spoke in place instead of having to pass the whole spoke through one small hole. >Ihave an autobike that I just bought for my wife, it has two broken spokes. I need to remove the back tire auto shifter to replace the spokes. Does anyone know how to do this? I have it broken down past the gears and everything is loose. I just need to know how get the automatic transmission from around the hub to get to the spokes? Telling me that I am stupid for buying an autobike is not help. Thanks
