Before mounting or replacing a fork/wheel combination with thru-axle
system, be sure to read first the manuals of the respective fork or wheel
manufacturer on this BERGAMONT info CD. More information are also provided

Maxle for RockShox
Wheel mounting
In the case of the Maxle thru-axle system for RockShox forks with quick-release
lever, insert the wheel from the front into the recess of the fork (a). Slide in the
brake disc into the brake calliper at the same time.
Make sure the wheel is positioned accurately in both recesses and that both
drop-outs are at the same height.
Insert the axle with the Maxle quick-release lever open into the hub until the axle
reaches the borehole of the thread (b).
Make sure the quick-release lever is fully open. When the axle thread engages
with the thread of the left fork leg, turn the axle clockwise (c). During the first
turns you should be able to turn the thru axle nearly without resistance.
Subsequently, turn the lever forcefully clockwise until the axle is hand-tight.
Finish by closing the Maxle quick-release lever like a usual quick-release lever. In
closed condition the quick-release lever must point to the rear (d); make sure it
does not stand out to the front or to the side.
Wheel removal
Open the quick-release lever fully.
Subsequently, turn the thru axle anticlockwise. Once the thru-axle thread is fully
disengaged from the thread, you can remove the thru axle completely.

Manitou Hex Lock QR15 (e.g. Manitou Mattoc and Marvel)
The Manitou Hex Lock system can be adjusted without tools and locked with
a quarter turn after wheel mounting.
In contrast to the QR15-axle there is no need to unfold the lever and to
unscrew the axle with diculties. The only thing you have to do is to unfold
the quick-release lever, to move it by a quarter turn and the axle is free.
The special feature is located at one end of the axle: the two pins which are
designed to lock the axle in a respective guide in the drop-out.
Bring the front wheel into the right position between the drop-outs. Insert
the axle with the Hex Lock quick-release lever open from the right through
the drop-out and the hub (e). The marking on the axle must show towards
the fork crown, i.e. upwards. The hex must slide into the left fork leg.
Once the axle is fully inserted, turn the axle until the two pins engage. Close
the quick-release subsequently (f) by applying the force usually necessary
for closing a quick-release.
