All bolted connections of the WHEELER bicycle components have to be tightened carefully and checked regularly to
ensure the safe and reliable operation of the bicycle. This is best done with a torque wrench
that disengages as soon
as the desired torque has been reached or a click-type torque wrench. Tighten carefully by approaching the prescribed
maximum torque in small steps (0.5 Nm increments) and check in between the proper fit of the component. Never
exceed the maximum torque value indicated by the manufacturer! Where no maximum torque setting is given start with
2 Nm. Observe the indicated values and follow the enclosed manuals of the component manufacturers.
i
Some components have the maximum permissible torque values printed on them. Use a torque wrench
and never exceed the maximum torque value! If you are in doubt or if you have any questions, contact
your WHEELER bicycle dealer.
