Determine the correct sleeve nut
(1) for your front brake
block.
The sleeve nut must be able to be screwed onto the
thread of the brake bolt through at least 6 rotations
(6mm (0.24in)).
Risk of accident as a result of sudden fork breakage due to
carbon fibres being damaged through improper assembly.
- Make sure the head of the sleeve nut is seated against
the front shoulder
(2) of the fork head hole.
WARNING

Do not use any thread lock for the time being!
The following installation and adjusting steps are the same
for both the front and rear brake blocks and for different rim
types.
We have, however, restricted the illustrations used for the
individual steps to
- the front brake block.
- a clincher rim without tyre.
Assemble the brake block.
Align the brake block so that it is as straight as possible.
Only tighten the sleeve nut slightly to begin with.
