Cassette

[Mike Cassera]

How do I remove the cassette on an S40 gen 6? I want to clean it in my Ultrasonic Cleaner. I think it just pops off once I remove the thru axle but I need some verification! TIA.

You remove the wheel from the front and the cassette will be attached to it like it would on any upright bike you ever owned. You will need a cassette removal tool like this one.

Personally would forego the chain whip - I tossed all of my old chain whips for cassettes in the trash after getting one of these. Much more soapy:

Took the cassette off, cleaned it in an Ultrasonic cleaner and re-installed on the bike. It was easier than I thought!
