PACKING YOUR URBAN
BIKE
If you pack your Urban bike, e.g. to send it in for ser-
vicing to our workshop, or if you want to take it with
you on holidays, you must bear in mind a few things
to bring your bike safe and sound to its destination.
You will find more information on how to pack your
Canyon under "Service" at our website www.canyon.com!
Strictly follow these instructions, whenever you pack
your bike.
For travelling with your bike by plane pack your bike
either into the Canyon BikeGuard or use a suitable
bike case.
For a transport by car be sure to secure your bike
appropriately in order to avoid any shifting inside the
car. If you are in doubt or if you have any questions,
contact our service hotline at +44 208 5496001.
Always secure the bicycle or bicycle com-
ponents when putting it/them into the in-
terior of your car. Parts shifting around can impair
your safety.
In the event your Canyon was not packed
!
for dispatch according to the instructions
given at our website www.canyon.com, you have
no right to claim compensation for possibly oc-
curring transport damage from Canyon Bicycles
GmbH.
The Canyon BikeGuard
Packing the Urban bike
Most clamps of bike carrier systems are
!
potential sources of damage to large-di-
ameter frame tubes! Frames made of aluminium
are very susceptible to be affected by dents. Suit-
able, special-purpose models are, however, avail-
able in the car accessory trade.
When taking your bike by car, make sure to
remove all parts from your bike (tools,
pannier bags, child carriers etc.) which might
come loose during transport. Risk of an accident!
HOW TO USE THE
WHEELGUARD
NOTES ON MOUNTING WHEELS WITH WHEELGUARD
ALLURE GRAVITY
The wheels of your Canyon Commuter/Urban bike do
not have quick-releases, but a so-called Wheelguard.
These are anti-theft lock devices for your wheels,
i.e. when the Wheelguard is closed, it cannot be re-
opened as long as your bike is in upright position.
HOW TO SECURELY MOUNT THE WHEEL WITH THE
WHEELGUARD
Turn off the locknut from the Wheelguard and re-
move the spring.
Insert the Wheelguard into the hollow axle of the
wheel. Slide the spring onto the Wheelguard. Make
sure the spring shows with its small diameter to the
hub axle.
Mount the wheel as described in chapter "Assembly
from the BikeGuard".
Tighten the locknut of the Wheelguard slightly by
hand. Tighten the locknut by using the Canyon
torque wrench according to the torque values on
the Wheelguard. Do not exceed the indicated torque
value!
WHEELGUARD
Remove locknut and spring from the Wheelguard
Slide Wheelguard into the hollow axle
Observe the indicated torque value
Never use other tools than those recom-
i
mended by the manufacturer. Make it a
rule to use a torque wrench. Never exceed the
maximum torque value indicated by the manufac-
turer! A too tight fixing of the axle can damage the
axle or the fork leg.
