DT-WIRE TENSION
DT-wire is factory adjusted. A correctly adjusted DT-wire ensures that the bike can be locked/unlocked and that the bike frame is stable while riding.
The DT-wire should never be too tight or too loose. If for any reason the cable adjustment has been modified, follow the manual directions to ensure
that the DT-wire is correctly tightened.
In locked position, middle of the DT-wire should move from X1 to X2mm from initial position, under a W1 gr. load.
Turn the lower bolts on the hook under the bottom bracket 360 degrees, counter-clockwise, tighten the lower bolts if cable is loose, upper bolts if
over-tensioned.
Once adjusted, make sure that the upper bolts and lower bolts are tightly screwed around the hook. There should be no gap between the bolts and
the hook.
The DT-wire may become slack over time. Make sure to adjust the wire regularly.
LOCKING MECHANISM
Always remember to lock your bicycle. Always remember to remove the key from the lock when leaving your bicycle or when riding your bicycle.
MAINTENANCE OVERVIEW
Please read through this overview carefully. Failure to properly maintain your bike may result in the warranty being void and may result in damage to
your bike.
IMPORTANT: 3 months after purchase have a mechanic tighten all screws and bolts and test the brakes and the belt drive. 1 year after purchase it is
important to take the bicycle to a mechanic for a complete service check.

GEAR CABLES/WIRES
Lubricate with a Teflon spray every six months. Spray a small amount of Teflon where the cables enter the housing, taking care not to spray on disc
brake rotor or brake pads. Work the cables a few times, and repeat if necessary. Check that the housing does not have cracks as this will reduce
function and ultimately cause loss of braking power.
BRAKES
Do not spray or wash your disc brakes with lubricant or soap. Use water only.
We recommend that you carefully read the attached Shimano disc brake manual for detailed information.
BRAKE FLUID
Shimano brakes use mineral oil, brake fluid.
BRAKE PADS
Change pads once a year or when they become less than 3mm thick.
ROTOR
If there are gouges, cracks or wobbles of more than 1mm, replace the rotor.
