Change tire/tube
I have a nexus 7 speed rear hub with the drum brake. There are cables on both sides of the rear wheel. I need to replace the tube and tire, what is the best way to do this?
Thanks :confused:

Disconnect the cables.
I have seen street-side bicycle repair guys do this in China. It takes them about 7 minutes to change a tube, make the payment transaction and get the customer back on the street.
Personally, I still take the whole wheel off.

OK, let me rephrase that. If I was only going to remove ONE of the cables, which is the easier to remove and put back correctly for a novice? The brake or the gear side?
