Mounting the wheel with a quick release

Alternative
Crash caused by unfastened quick release
A faulty or incorrectly installed quick release may
become caught in the brake disc and block the wheel.
This will cause a crash.
 Never fit a defective quick release.
Crash caused by faulty or incorrectly installed
quick release
The brake disc becomes very hot during operation.
Parts of the quick release may become damaged as a
result. The quick release comes loose. This will result
in a crash and injuries.
 The front wheel quick release lever and the brake
disc must be situated on opposite sides.
Crash caused by incorrectly set clamping force
Excessively high clamping force will damage the quick
release and cause it to lose its function.
Insufficient clamping force will cause a detrimental
transmission of force. The suspension fork or the quick
release may break. This will result in a crash and
injuries.
 Never fasten a quick release using a tool (e.g.
hammer or pliers).
 Only use the clamping lever with the specified set
clamping force.
