This section explains the adjustment of tire pressure and of wheel bearings.
Tire Pressure
Inflate the tire to the pressure recommended on the tire sidewall. Do not underinflate or
overinflate the tire. If the tire loses pressure, it probably has a hole in the tube.
+
Standard tire: repair or replace the inner tube.
+
Tubeless tire: repair or replace the tire.
+
Tubular (sew-up) tire: Replace the tire
Tire installation instructions are on the Bontrager web site.

Adjustment
Wheel Bearings
Special tools and skills are necessary to adjust the bearings, so only your dealer must do this
procedure.
+
Do not turn the lever in a circle to increase the quick-release tension (Figure 32); this will not
correctly hold the wheel in its location.

4. Align the levers so they do not touch a part of the bicycle or an accessory part (such as
rack or fenders), and so obstacles in the path of the bicycle can not catch the levers
(Figure 33 and 34).
+
If necessary, speak to your dealer about a quick-release that closes correctly and does not
touch the bicycle.
5. Do the Quick Check on page 29 to make sure the quick-release is correctly adjusted and
locked.
