I can change rear flats, but the horizontal dropouts on my red Merckx are frustrating, and it can take me a long time to get that wheel back on, and there might be some hair-pulling and throwing of things. Since I just got new wheels for that bike, the other night I practiced taking it off and on a couple of times with the best results ever, so I think I finally have a handle on it. I think it helped that I was in the right frame of mind to practice. It was not stressful, and it went right on.
