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. This will cause
a crash with injuries.

hammer or pliers).
 Only use the clamping lever with the specified
set clamping force.
 Open the clamping lever.
 Pull the locking lever on the stem up, and
simultaneously pivot the handlebars into the

releases
 Open and close the quick releases on the stem
or the seat post.

lever can be moved easily from the open final
position into the middle and has to be pressed
with the fingers or base of the thumb from the
middle point onwards.
6.6.3.5 Adjusting the quick release clamping
force
 If the clamping lever on the handlebars cannot
be moved into its final position, screw out the
knurled nut.

specialist dealer will need to check the quick
release.

Brake failure due to incorrect setting
If the pressure point is set with brakes where the
brake linings and brake disc have reached their
wear limit, the brakes may fail and cause an
accident with injury.
Before you set the pressure point, ensure that the
brake linings and brake disc have not reached
their wear limit.
The pressure point setting is adjusted using the
twist knob.
 Turn the twist knob towards the plus (+)
symbol.
 The brake lever moves closer to the handlebar
grip. Re-adjust the grip distance as necessary.
 The lever pressure point activates sooner.
