10 ASSEMBLY FROM THE BIKEGUARD
It also retains its effectiveness in wet conditions
and provides maximum protection against corro‑
sion. Canyon assembly paste can be used for all
carbon and aluminium connections. It's ideal for
this purpose, as it does not harden.
Prior to applying Canyon assembly paste, remove
dirt particles and lubricant residues from the sur‑
faces to be treated. Apply a thin and even film of
Canyon assembly paste to the cleaned surfaces
using a brush or a chamois.
Mount the components, as specified. Use the
Canyon torque wrench and never exceed the pre‑
scribed maximum torque value. Remove excessive
Canyon assembly paste and re‑seal the small sa‑
chet after use.
Wheel bags are not supplied with every
Speedmax.
UNPACKING
Remove the protective cardboard cartons, if avail‑
able, and remove the front and rear wheel, packed
in a cardboard carton or wheel bag as well as the
box with the small parts and the FITTING KIT from
the BikeGuard.
Lift the frame carefully out of the BikeGuard. Make
sure that your also lift out the protective card‑
board carton above and in front of the handlebar
as well as the bottom cardboard box to which the
frame including thru axles are attached.
Keep the entire packaging material as
well as the BikeGuard in a dry place. If
you intend to ship your Canyon or to take it
with you on a trip, you will have everything at
hand.
Place the frame carefully with the protective card‑
board carton on the ground.
MOUNTING THE SADDLE AND THE SEAT POST
Unpack the saddle and the seat post from the
front cardboard box and remove the front card‑
board carton completely.
Before mounting the seat post to the frame, make
sure that the seat tube is absolutely free of sharp
edges and burrs.
ASSEMBLY FROM THE BIKEGUARD
Take the clamp mechanism out of the box with
the small parts. Insert the clamp mechanism into
the frame and make sure it is properly aligned.
Slide your seat post to the MAX marking into the
frame to avoid the scratching of the seat post. The
saddle height will be adjusted later.
The seat post has to slide easily into the frame
without pressing. If it does not, loosen the clamp
a little more.
The Canyon Speedmax has a seat post
with a specific aero profile. The pointed
end of the TRI CF seat post at the top of the
seat post must always show towards the front
in direction of motion.
