outward too far.
If you want to make any adjustments, release the
bolts by one to two turns. Proceed as described in
chapter "Mounting the handlebars to the Canyon Ur-
ban (Canyon H27 Flat AL)".
Release the Allen bolt at either shifter/brake lever
mount.
Turn the brake and shift lever on the handlebars. Sit
on the saddle and place your fingers on the brake
levers. Check whether the back of your hand forms
a straight line with your lower arm.
Re-tighten the shifter/brake lever mount according
to the indications in chapter "Mounting the handle-
bars to the Canyon Urban (Canyon H27 Flat AL)".
Check the firm seat of the handlebars and the shift-
ers/brake levers by standing in front of your Canyon
and seizing the handlebars at both brake levers.
You should not be able to turn the handlebars and
the shifter/brake lever mounts downwards, even
by applying force. Gently retighten the clamping
bolt(s), if necessary.

hands on bar ends. The brake levers are not in all
positions within easy reach.
