Well it's not really a 'skip' bike; it's a Ribble Ebike.
We had disc brakes on a tandem previously, but rarely took wheels off to transport it.
It's a hydraulic system.
So we arrive at start of ride by car with my wife's bike and mine in the back of campervan.
I have dropped out front wheel but discs have closed together on the journey.

so, with difficulty, prise apart with screwdriver - a bit too blunt really for the task, but all I had...

I wondered what I had lying around to stop them closing up , and wonder what others use?
Here's a bodge - with a 2p coin !
