ThE BRAKE SYSTEM
If the pads cannot be set correctly, then they
are worn and must be replaced by new brake
pads (from Canyon!).
Completely undo the small Allen bolt.
Pull the worn brake pads out of the pad hold-
ers. Pay attention to their alignment.
Push into the pad holder the new original
brake pads that match the rim. Tighten up the
Allen bolt to 2 Nm.
Check the adjustment of the brakes as de-
scribed above.
In order to replace the pads together with the
holders or to install other spacers, including
bolts, for another type of wheel, remove the
two stoppers from the fork blades.
Firmly hold the brake pad and holder and
undo the bolt. Remove it completely and pay
attention to its alignment.
The brake system may only be fitted
with the original brake pads that are
supplied or else with those that match the
wheel if a different wheel has been fitted.
Otherwise there is a risk of brake failure!
Mount the new brake pad together with the
holder and the spacer and bolt in the same
order and alignment that you removed them
previously.
Mount the front wheel again.
Ensure that the brake pads are aligned cor-
rectly to the braking surface of the rim. You
can find further information in the chapter
"Checking and readjusting road bike brakes"
in your bicycle manual road bike.
ThE BRAKE SYSTEM
Always tighten up the retaining bolts of the
brake pads to the prescribed torque of 5 to
7 Nm.
Check the adjustment of the brakes as de-
scribed above. After that, adjust the two
brake arms with an Allen wrench with the aid
of the the Brake Adjuster.
Take the Canyon Brake Adjuster off, remove
the clamping bolts and put the Brakebooster
back into position. Tighten up its clamping
bolts to the prescribed torque of 2.5 Nm. En-
sure that the clamping bolts have a locking
paste ("Loctite", medium strength) applied
to them.
