10:9 HANDRIMS
Twin is delivered with aluminium or stainless steel handrims as
standard. The way in which the user is able to grip the handrim is
influenced both by the type of handrim chosen, and its distance
from the wheel. Friction-coated, cellular rubber and plastic-coated
handrims are available as options.
The optional handrims give a better grip, but also
increase friction. It is therefore important to
remember that when stopping suddenly, friction
burns (e.g. blisters) may occur.
Remember that when passing through a narrow
space you may pinch your fingers between handrim
and wall. Also be careful that your fingers do not slip
into the spokes.
If there is a risk that the user's fingers will catch in
the spokes we recommend the use of spoke-guards.
10:10 Adjusting the distance of the handrim
Aluminium/stainless steel handrims: the distance between wheel
and handrim can be adjusted by adding or removing spacers.
Tool: 4 mm Allen key.
