26 ASSEMBLY FROM THE BIKEGUARD
MOUNTING THE PEDALS
Canyon Urban bikes can be fitted with standard ped-
als of the major brands.
Before mounting the pedals, check the marking on
the pedal axles first. "R" stands for right pedal and "L"
for left pedal. Note that the left pedal has a left-hand-
ed thread that has to be tightened contrary to the
direction you are accustomed to, i.e. anticlockwise.
Apply a thin layer of standard assembly grease on the
pedal threads before screwing in the pedals.
Screw each pedal manually into the thread of its
crank by two to three full turns. Continue by using a
pedal spanner to tighten the pedals firmly.
Check the reliable fit of the pedals after
about 100 km (60 miles). The pedals can
come loose, and this can destroy the thread and
throw the rider off the bike. Also check the reliable
fit of the other bolts according to the prescribed
torque values.
Some pedal types have to be tightened with an Allen
key.
ADD-ON PARTS MAKING YOUR CANYON FIT FOR
PUBLIC ROADS
Fix the white reflector to the handlebars and the red
reflector to the seat post and mount a bell. Finish by
mounting the spoke reflectors. Make sure you mount
two reflectors opposite of each other to the spokes of
the front wheel and two reflectors opposite of each
other to the spokes of the rear wheel.
Observe the road traffic regulations in the
!
country where you use the bike. You can
find further information in chapter "Legal require-
ments for riding on public roads".
ASSEMBLY FROM THE BIKEGUARD
CHECKING AND ADJUSTING
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 heavily on the brake calliper
and normally not on the brake pads. Spin both wheels
to make sure they run true.
New brake pads of disc brakes have to be
!
bedded in.
