    it is pretty tricky, because you have to wedge the tube under the brakes and I have to lift the wheel up just a hair in the rear to get in. But -- at least you don't have to monkey with dropping the wheel in again.

    Eventually, I figured the rear derailleur out when I decided to put on a new chain... which was scary at first.

    Next time, I get a flat, I will take cell phone pics of how the lazy bunny_ninja changes her rear wheel tube. It keeps the fingers cleaner!

    (she says, as she types with road dirt fingers... I just changed the tire on my front wheel. It was kaput. In fact, the LBS dude didn't know how I made it through my 50 miler yesterday. He had me buy Park Tool 'Tire Boots'. I also had a therapy session with the sales guy by the tire selection. Ended up buying a Continental 4-season)
