Removing The Rear Wheel; Mounting The Rear Wheel - Canyon Pedelec Manual

26 GEAR SYSTEM ENVIOLO AUTOMATIQ

REMOVING THE REAR WHEEL

Switch off the drive system of your Canyon
pedelec and remove the battery or both batteries
from the frame.
To take out the rear wheel, first undo the plug
connection on the hub interface of the enviolo
AUTOMATiQ gear system.
Never grab the cable to unplug the con-
nection; always pull on the ribbed sur-
face of the connection/plug.
In drive mode, the connection carries
electric current. Protect the connection
against water and other conductive elements
while it is unplugged.
Undo the axle nut(s) with the installed Croozer
adapter anticlockwise using an open-end spanner
or ring spanner. In most cases, completely remov-
ing the axle nuts is not required; it is usually suffi-
cient to undo them by three to five turns.
Push the lockwashers on the axle outward so that
the retaining lugs on both sides no longer inter-
lock with the dropouts.
If you completely remove the axle nuts
and the lockwashers from the axle,
make a note of the installation position for
subsequent reinstallation.
Take great care not to bend or twist the
existing drive belt.
With some models, it is necessary to turn the hub
interface of the enviolo AUTOMATiQ gear system
upward to be able to unhook the belt.
The belt must be fully slack before you can re-
move it carefully and without bending from the
rear belt wheel. It must be possible to remove the
belt with only little effort.
Now you can guide the rear wheel out of the
frame's dropouts.
For more information on removing the rear wheel
read the chapter "The wheels – tyres, inner
tubes and air pressure" in your comprehensive
world-specific Canyon bicycle manual.

MOUNTING THE REAR WHEEL

Carefully place the belt on the rear belt wheel with
your hand. Take care not to bend or twist the belt.
Place the rear wheel in the frame. While doing so,
take care not to pinch the gear cables. Ensure that
the brake pads sit properly in the callipers and
that the rotor sits between the brake pads.

read the chapter "The wheels – tyres, inner
tubes and air pressure" in your comprehensive
world-specific Canyon bicycle manual.

Slide a lockwasher onto each of the two axle arms.
The indented side of the lockwasher must point
toward the rear triangle. The rectangular retaining
lug needs to interlock with the rear fork dropout.
Tighten the axle nuts to 30-40 Nm torque.
If the lockwasher is not installed cor-
rectly, this can result in damage to the
rear triangle and to the hub. Exceeding the
specified tightening torque could damage the
components, while not tightening the compo-
nents sufficiently means that the axle could
slide within the rear fork dropout.
For disk brakes, actuate the brake levers
several times after mounting the wheel.
An exact pressure point should be reached.
