TORQUES
All screw connections must be tightened with an appropriate torque wrench. Proper use prevents overtightening and
breaking of the bolts.
The torques indicated below are for unlubricated threads. Lubrication affects the friction coefficient, so that you need
to choose a lower torque for lubricated bolts.
The following table shows all necessary torques for your bike.

* The maximum torque is a value which must not be exceeded. Normally, a lower torque is sufficient for a safe
connection. Especially when using assembly paste, the torque can often be reduced significantly below this value, as
the solid particles in the assembly paste increase the friction significantly.
Tip: The lower the tightening torque of the screws, the less stress is placed on the component - this is particularly
important for carbon components.
