changing wheels
Ok so I have aquired a set of 2015 SG wheels with tires front has calipers rear no caliper or pulley. I have only had bike for 3 months and was inquiring how hard is it to swap wheels & rear rotor & pulley? Dealer wants $190.

Do you have a lift? Do you have the tools you would need to properly remove and install the wheels? Do you have a service manual?

It's easy, just follow the manual and you'll be fine. Also, I believe you are going to need a 36mm wrench/socket for the rear.

Along with a torque wrench and a belt tension gauge. Depending on mileage and condition of the bearings, he might consider changing those out while he's got the wheels off the bike, in which case he'll need a bearing removal/installer tool, along with new bearings.
