Brake caliper installation
The Deville brake caliper bolt pattern uses PostMount 180 standard (PM180).
To assemble the disc brakes, follow this procedure:
Install the disc brake caliper, according to disc brake manufacturer's specifications.
Be sure to torque all fasteners and bolts to manufacturer's recommendations. Consult the instructions that
came with your disc brakes for proper installation procedures. It is recommended to install new brake
pads, to ensure proper alignment.
Route the disc brake hose or cable housing from the caliper to the inside of the lower leg and through the
supplied disc brake hose guide.
Test the brakes for proper operation on ground level before hitting the trails.
The disc brake caliper mounting bolts must have
10
mm of thread engagement with the fork.
The disc brake caliper mounting bolt tightening torque level must never exceed 10 N.m.
Ressort AIR
The first adjustment that should be done on the fork is to set the air pressure.
This adjusts the stiffness of the air spring according to your weight. The stiffness of the air
spring induces a degree of fork travel when you sit on your bike. This value, commonly
called SAG, can vary based on your usage.
This value should be between 20% and 30% of the fork overall travel. The SAG
measurement should be taken standing with both feet on the pedals and both hands on
the bars. The Deville has an O-ring on the fork upper tube in order to measure the SAG
position. You can experiment and vary your sag percentage to better suit your riding style
and overall feel.
To achieve the best performance from your BOS product, it is important to set your
optimal pressure. The chart below will give you some base values based on your weight.
Your specific pressure may vary based on your riding style and personal preference.
However, do not stray too far from the indicated pressures, or you may risk changing the performance of
your fork.
It’s recommended to use our BOS high pressure pump with a digital manometer more
accurate and comfortable to use, available at your Bos suspension dealer.
