Installing the Front Wheel
Using a RWS Thru Axle
Check before every ride
Before every ride, ensure that the wheel is securely mounted in the fork. Ensure that the RWS lever is tightened
to at least 15 Nm.
Using a Quick Release
Install the front wheel in accordance with the instructions of the manufacturer of the quick release.
DANGER
Risk of injury due to collision of the tire with parts of the fork!
A collision test must be performed after the front wheel was installed!
DANGER
Risk of injuries due to damages of the fork caused by parts with sharp edges!
Mounting hubs, thru axles or quick releases with sharp edges can damage the fork. Such damages can
lead to a sudden failure of the fork.
• Check hubs, thru axles or quick releases for sharp edges.
• Do not use hubs, thru axles or quick releases if there are sharp edges.
