ASSEMBLY FROM THE BIKEGUARD
Tighten the locknut by using the Canyon torque
wrench according to the torque values on the Wheel-
guard. Do not exceed the indicated torque value!
After mounting the wheel and tightening the Wheel-
guard pull the brake lever several times and spin the
wheel subsequently. The rotor must not drag on the
brake calliper and normally not on the brake pads.
New brake pads of disc brakes have to be
!
bedded in, before they reach their opti-
mum braking performance. For more information
read chapter "The brake system".
Finally lift the bike a few centimetres from the ground
so that the wheel is suspended and hit the tyre from
above. A securely fastened wheel remains in the axle
mounts of frame or fork and will not rattle.
MOUNTING THE MUDGUARDS
Some Canyon Urban bikes have mudguards.
The rear wheel mudguard is already mounted.
The front wheel mudguard must be screwed to the
mounts at the fork. Tighten the bolts by using the
Canyon torque wrench according to the marked
torque values.
ADJUSTING AND MOUNTING THE HANDLEBARS
(CANYON H27 FLATBARS)
Make the adjustments of the handlebars with the
front wheel mounted and the tyre inflated to the suit-
able pressure. The brake levers of a ready-for-use
Urban bike point slightly downwards. When you sit in
the saddle with your fingers on the brake levers the
back of your hands should form a straight line with
your forearms.
Bar ends on Urban bikes are usually fitted slightly
angled. Your hands should rest on them with your
wrists relaxed and not turned outward too far. If this
is not the case, bring the handlebars into the correct
position and tighten the stem bolts, as described
above. Adjust the brake levers/shifters, as described
in chapter "Shifter and brake lever adjustment".
ASSEMBLY FROM THE BIKEGUARD
CHECKING THE HEADSET
Check the headset for play by placing your fingers
around the head cup. Bring your weight to bear on
the saddle, pull the front brakes with your other hand
and push the Canyon Urban bike firmly back and
forth with the wheel remaining on the ground. If there
is play in the bearing, there will be a light jerk and the
upper cup gets out of alignment with the lower cup
which becomes visible by the slot between the cups.
To check the bearing for ease of running, lift the
frame until the front wheel no longer touches the
ground. The front wheel must turn from far left to far
right and back without catching anywhere. A light tap
on the handlebars must be enough to turn the fork
out to the side.
If there is play in the bearing or if it is too
i
tight, contact our service hotline at +44
