SUPERTYPE CARBON 11 CRANKSET
3
Thank you for purchasing the SUPERTYPE CARBON 11 crankset.
A product offering both safety and long-term functionality.
Designed using state-of-the-art manufacturing techniques, the
cranks, with integrated bottom bracket spindle, are built using the
patented hard-structure ‘double valves’ system, with multi-direc-
tional carbon fibre. The inner core is made of high density foam,
while the outer surface is finished in plain weave carbon. The re-
placeable drive bushings system is also patented, and automated
production processes guarantee the highest standards of quality,
efficiency and durability.

Assembly instructions
(Picture page 7)
• The crankset couples with the Evo Max bottom bracket.
• Check that the bottom bracket threads of your frame are compa
-
tible with the cups supplied with the bottom bracket.
• Carefully check that the bottom bracket shell of your frame has
been correctly milled, so as to ensure correct alignment of the bot-
tom bracket.
Warning: an incorrectly milled bottom bracket shell could
result in premature failure and reduced life span of the
bottom bracket.
• Check the thread of the bottom bracket shell for imperfections
(dirt, burrs, etc), as these could damage the threads of the cups.
• Screw the right cup (A) fully onto the bottom bracket shell (B),
applying a tightening torque of 45-50 Nm ( 1 ).
• Insert the spacers in the bottom bracket, making sure that the
compensator ring (E) is correctly positioned ( 1 ). Then, screw the
left cup (C) onto the bottom bracket shell, applying a tightening
torque of 45-50 Nm.
• Insert the spindle of the right crank (D) ( 2 )
and attach the left
crank (F) ( 3 ) using an 8mm hexagonal torque wrench (G) ( 4 ). Apply
a tightening torque of 42-45 Nm ( 4 ).
Warning: a loosely tightened crankset could result in accidents,
personal injuries or death.
• Once assembled, check that the chainset turns smoothly and
that there is no play.
Disassembly
• To disassemble the crankset, insert an 8mm allen key (G) (4) in
the left crank and turn it anti-clockwise. The screw cap acts as a
remover and the two cranks come apart.
Maintenance
• Have the crankset periodically checked (every 3 - 4 months) by a
qualified mechanic or specialist, to make sure there are no cracks
or any other signs of wear. Checking is especially important if the
crankset has been hit by something or has been involved in a fall.
Warning: abnormalities in the chainset resulting from impacts and
collisions could lead to accident, personal injuries or death.
• If the crankset should need special maintenance (for example,
gears changed or bottom bracket replaced), contact a qualified
mechanic or specialist who works with genuine Supertype 11 spa-
re parts.
• Never wash the crankset parts with pressure-fed water, because
water may penetrate the seals and cause permanent damage to
the internal components. We recommend washing the compo-
nents using a sponge, mild soap and water.
General remarks on shifting
Even if shifting under extreme conditions is possible, we do not
recommend doing so, because the whole drive system may mal-
function. Wear and tear, noises when pedalling and poor shifting
performance can result. To avoid these problems, we do not re-
commend using the combinations shown in table 1.
