ADJUSTING THE RIDING POSITION, PEDALS
Once you’ve adjusted the handlebar angle,
you need to adjust the brake lever position.
Loosen the hex-key bolt on the lever hous-
ing clamps.
• Turn the lever on the handlebar. Sit on the
saddle and grip the levers with your fingers.
Check that your hand makes a straight line
with your forearm.
• Retighten the bolts (torque setting 5-6 Nm).
BAR ENDS
Bar ends oer additional hand positions.
They are generally fitted so that the hands
rest comfortably on them, when the rider is
in a slightly leaned forward position. They
are usually angled upwards at about 25
degrees.
PEDALS
Grease the threads before assembly and
insert the pedal by rotating the axle 2 or
3 turns by hand. The left/right pedal has a
“L”/“R”-sign. Tighten the pedals to 15 Nm.
Always be sure that securing
bolts on stem, handlebars, bar
ends and brakes are tightened to
the appropriate torque setting.
The appropriate values are listed
on pages 62. Otherwise, it’s pos-
sible that parts may come loose
or break. This can lead to serious
accidents.
DANGER!
ATTENTION!
The handlebar stem is designed for
handlebar bags or baskets up to 3
kg (max. load including the weight
of bar and basket).
