Canyon Pedelec Manual page 15

26 ASSEMBLY FROM THE BIKEGUARD
Bring the saddle into alignment and do not over-
tighten the seat post binder bolt, i.e. do not exceed
the permissible maximum torque. Use the Canyon
torque wrench.
Never ride your pedelec if the MIN/MAX
marking of the seat post is visible.
For correctly adjusting the saddle tilt
observe the remarks in chapter "Adjust-
ing the saddle to the correct height" as well as
the permitted torques in chapter "General
notes on care and inspection" of your detailed
type-specific Canyon bicycle manual and on
the enclosed CD and also observe the specifi-
cations of the component manufacturer.
Keep yourself informed by visiting our
always updated website
www.canyon.com. There your will find the
manuals for many models.
ADJUSTING AND MOUNTING THE HANDLEBAR
Make the adjustments of the handlebar with the
front wheel mounted and the tyre inflated to the
suitable pressure. The brake levers of a ready-to-
use e-mountain bike point slightly downwards.
When you sit in the saddle with your fingers on
the brake levers the back of your hands should
form a straight line with your forearms.

Use the Canyon torque wrench and finish by tight-
ening the clamping bolts in cross pattern. Do not
exceed the maximum torque values!
Do not apply grease or oil on clamping
areas made of carbon!
at Assemble your Canyon by using the
Canyon torque wrench enclosed with
the BikeGuard.
MOUNTING THE PEDALS
Pedelecs can be fitted with standard pedals of the
major brands.
Before mounting the pedals, check the marking
on the pedal axles first. "R" stands for right pedal
and "L" for left pedal. Note that the left pedal has
a left-handed thread that has to be tightened con-
trary to the direction you are accustomed to, i.e.
anticlockwise.
ASSEMBLY FROM THE BIKEGUARD
Apply a thin layer of standard assembly grease on
the pedal threads before screwing in the pedals.
Screw each pedal manually into the thread of its
crank by two to three full turns. Continue by using
a pedal spanner to tighten the pedals firmly.
Some pedal types have to be tightened with an
Allen key.
Check the reliable fit of the pedals once
again after 100 km (60 miles). The ped-
als can come loose, destroy the thread which
could result in a fall. Also check the reliable fit
of the other bolts according to the prescribed
torque values.
