ADJUSTMENT TO THE RIDER
FORE-TO-AFT POSITION AND SADDLE
SADDLE CLAMP AEROAD
Insert the seat post into the seat tube to the desired
saddle height. Tighten the two Allen bolts that point to
the rear to the indicated tightening torque of 5-7 Nm.
SEAT POST MONORAIL
The saddle system Monorail from Selle Italia has a
special seat post head for the saddle mounting. The
saddle is not fitted with two saddle rails, as usual,
but has a single carbon rail running underneath the
centre of the saddle cover. This makes for a larger
horizontal adjustment range of the saddle.
After releasing both bolts at the seat post head you
can move the saddle to the front and to the rear.
These two bolts also allow the adjustment of the
saddle tilt (e.g. lowering the front end of the saddle).
Tighten the bolts to a maximum torque of 8 Nm.
Tghten both bolts by using a torque wrench

HANDLEBARS AND BRAKE LEVERS
HANDLEBARS
AND BRAKE LEVER
ADJUSTMENT
With road bikes the straight bar ends should be par-
allel to the ground or slant slightly downwards toward
the rear. The tips of the brake levers should coincide
with an imaginary straight line extending forward
from the straight extension below the drops. Shifting
the brake levers is a job best left to an expert, as it
involves retaping the handlebars afterwards.
ADJUSTING THE HANDLEBAR POSITION BY TURNING
THE HANDLEBAR
Release the Allen bolt(s) at the front side of the
stem.
Turn the handlebars to the desired position.
Make sure the handlebars are accurately centred in
the stem.
Please note that there are two different procedures of
how to securely fasten the handlebars.
Alternative 1
Screwing in Canyon Aheadset
®
-stems with faceplate.
Screw in both upper bolts (pos. 1+2) without tight-
ening them (1 Nm). The slot should be fully closed in
the end, the faceplate should be flush with the body.
To do so, you may have to release both lower bolts
(pos. 3+4).
Continue by tightening both lower bolts (pos. 3+4)
according to the tightening torques on the stem (5
or 8 Nm).
Finish by re-tightening both upper bolts (pos. 1+2)
according to the tightening torques on the stem (5
or 8 Nm). Please note that this tightening torque
only applies to the combination of the Canyon stem
with the Canyon handlebars.
ADJUSTMENT TO THE RIDER
The straight extension below the drops should be parallel to the
ground or slant slightly downwards towards the rear
