Tire puncture
Flat tires are the most common cause of puncture
during cycling. However, as long as you have the
necessary tools and a spare tube or a repair kit, this
need not mean the end of your cycle ride. If your
wheels are attached with quick-releases to the frame
and the fork, you only need two tire levers and a
pump (a) .
i
Before removing a wheel, read the
chapters “Mounting wheels” and “How
to use quick-releases and thru axles”.
If you are in doubt or if you have any questions,
contact your CENTURION dealer.
Dismounting wheels
If you have typical road bike rim brakes, open the
quick-release lever at the brake ( Shimano, SRAM )
(b) .
If your bike has V-brakes you first have to unhook
the brake cable from the brake arm. To do this, grip
the rim with one hand and press the brake pads and/
or arms together. In this position the brake hose can
easily be unhooked (c) .
If you have disc brakes (hydraulic or mechanic),
check the position of the brake pads through the
inspection window. In this way you will be able to
tell later whether the brake pad is still in its proper
position. Read the brake manufacturer’s operating
instructions.
If you have derailleur gears, you should shift the
chain to the smallest sprocket before removing the
rear wheel. This shifts the rear derailleur right to the
outside where it doesn’t interfere with the removal of
the wheel. Open the quick-release of the wheel, as
described in the chapter “How to use quick-releases
and thru axles”.
If you cannot remove the front wheel after releasing
the lever, this is due to the drop-out safety tabs. They
come as metal catches which engage with recesses
in the drop-outs. Just release the quick-release ad-
justing nut a little and slip the wheel past the tabs.
You will find it easier to remove the rear wheel, when
you pull the rear derailleur slightly backwards (d) . Lift
your CENTURION road bike a little off the ground and
give the wheel a light blow with your hand so that it
drops out.
G
Rotors can become hot, so let them cool
down before removing a wheel.
G
Do not pull the (disc) brake lever with a
removed wheel and make sure to mount
the safety locks when removing the
wheel for a longer period of time.

Special case CX1: By pretensioning and
simultaneously activating the lock key
the cage lock blocks the cage in ten-
sioned condition.
