Dismounting wheels
If your bike is equipped with an SR SUNTOUR
Q-LOC-system 15 mm, open the quick-release lever
completely. Apply a little pressure on the counter nut
and turn the counter nut counterclockwise until the ex-
pander releases.
Once you have screwed out completely the thru-axle
thread from the thread of the lower leg, you can remove
the thru axle completely.

Shimano E-Thru 12 x 142 mm (rear wheel)
Mounting wheels
If your bike is equipped with a Shimano E-Thru 12 x 142
mm system
(e)
, slide the rear wheel in the rear frame,
mount the rotor in the brake caliper and guide the chain
over the outmost sprocket of the cassette.
Bring the rear wheel into the right position between the
drop-outs and slide the axle with open E-Thru quick-re-
lease lever from the left side through the drop-out and
the hub
(f)
.
As soon as the axle thread engages with the thread of
the right fork leg, close the axle by turning it clockwise.
During the first rotations you should be able to rotate the
thru axle nearly without resistance. Tighten the axle a
little.
Close the E-Thru quick-release lever like a usual
quick-release lever
(g)
.
At the beginning you should feel virtually no resistance
and clamping effect. When the lever is at right angle the
resistance you feel should increase significantly and to-
wards the end you should need even more strength to
close the lever.
If the lever cannot be closed completely, re-open it and
turn the axle a little counterclockwise. Try again to close
the quick-release lever.
Use the palm of your hand to push it in all the way while
your fingers pull on the rear frame, but not on a spoke
or the rotor.
In its end position the quick-release lever should be
tight so that it can no longer be turned. Make sure the
quick-release lever does not stand out to the rear or to
the side. The best position is in parallel to a frame tube.
