12 ASSEMBLY FROM THE BIKEGUARD
Pull the seat post out again.
Apply a little Canyon assembly paste to the
bottom part of the seat post and inside the
seat tube.
Slide the seat post into the seat tube to the
desired saddle height.
Measure the saddle height of your
previous bicycle from the middle of
the bottom bracket up to the top edge of
the saddle in the middle of the saddle.
Then transfer the saddle height to your
new Canyon Speedmax CF SLX.
Insert the built-in seat post clamp.
Tighten the Allen bolt of the seat post clamp
to the indicated torque value of 6 Nm.
Your seat post must go into the frame as a
minimum to as far as underneath the top tube
and up to the MAX marking of the seat post.
For more information on the correct saddle
height read the chapter "Adjusting the saddle
to the correct height".
Never apply any grease or oil to
clamping areas made of carbon!
Never ride your Canyon Speedmax
CF SLX if the MAX marking of the
seat post is visible.
The Canyon Perfect Position Sys-
i
tem (PPS) offers you the possibility

ASSEMBLY FROM THE BIKEGUARD
MOUNTING THE HANDLEBARS
Remove the protective film from the handle-
bars, if available, and undo the extensions
fastened to the handlebars with special
straps with Velcro fastener. Hold the handle-
bars tight while you do this so that they do not
drop and get damaged.
It is recommended that you remove the pro-
tective material in general by hand. If that is
not possible, it is best to use scissors, and if it
is really necessary, use a box cutter.
When using a box cutter make sure
you do not damage the component
or injure yourself. Make it a rule to cut
away from you and the component!
