FRAMESETS – ASSEMBLY
Frames are delivered ready for assembly, i.e. with
threads cut and bearing seats and seat tube faced.
There is no need for any machining on the frame. Do
not modify the frame or any of its attachments, e.g.
the adjustable cable guides etc., by filing, boring or
the like.
Mount all components onto the frame by using high-
grade assembly grease (except for carbon seat posts,
stems on forks with a carbon steerer tube and all seat
posts on carbon frames). This helps to avoid corro-
sion. If you omit the grease, you may find it impossible
to disassemble your Canyon at a later date.
Canyon road bike frames are delivered with the head-
set and fork already mounted.
Tighten the bolts carefully by approaching the max-
imum permissible torque in small steps. Check the
secure seat of the component, as described in the
relevant chapters.
For parts with no torque range given, tighten the
bolts gradually to the maximum torque and check in
between regularly the reliable fit of the component.
The stem included in the delivery is the
!
only stem approved for assembly.
Whoever assembles a Canyon bike frame
from a bare frame carries the responsibil-
ity for ensuring that the components are selected
and mounted in accordance with the manufactur-
ers' guidelines, generally accepted standards and
the state of the art in science and technology. In
case there are any questions regarding compati-
bility of individual parts, please contact our ser-
vice hotline at +44 (0) 20 8501 2582.
Always observe the tightening torques indicated
Make it a rule to use a torque wrench
All carbon fibres of the Canyon F10 frame
!
were arranged in a way to meet the
strength specifications for those directions of
force to which they are normally subjected. For
this reason the riveted cable stops must only be
subjected to forces as they are exerted by the
gear or brake cable. Do not pull on them at an
oblique angle or against the direction of the cable,
i.e. away from the frame, e.g. in an attempt to alter
the effective cable length. This could otherwise
cause damage to the frame.
Some components have torque specifica-
i
tions printed or labelled on them. Be sure
to observe these specifications. Also follow the
component manufacturers' operating instruc-
tions enclosed with the delivery!
HEADSET
All frames are delivered with fully mounted bearing
cups and an integrated headset.
Canyon road bike framesets are delivered with the
stem and fork mounted and the headset already ad-
justed.

Common cartridge bearings can be mounted directly
into the bottom bracket shell of all models with high-
grade grease. Observe the torque specifications of
the bottom bracket manufacturer.
