50 ThE BRAKE SYSTEM
Correct the position of the cable carrier as
required with the aid of the associated cable
adjuster that is located underneath the stem
cover.
If its adjustment range is not sufficient, undo
the two clamping bolts at the cable carrier
and correct the cable adjustment.
Then tighten up the two clamping bolts to the
prescribed torque of 2.5 to 3 Nm.
Once the position of the cable carrier is cor-
rect, the spring can be put back. Check
whether the pads have an air gap of around
1 to 1.5 mm on each side of the Canyon Brake
Adjuster.
If that is not the case, adjust the two brake
arms accordingly by screwing the relevant
setscrew in or out with a 1.5 mm Allen wrench.
The setscrews for the rear brake are acces-
sible from the outside.
If the pads cannot be set correctly, then they
are worn and must be replaced by new brake
pads (from Canyon!).
Read the description above of the work steps
for the front brake and follow them for the
rear brake.
Ensure that the brake pad holders are closed
in the direction of rotation of the rim. With the
rear brake the holder is then closed under-
neath.
Always tighten up the retaining bolts of the
brake pads to the prescribed torque of 5 to
7 Nm.
Remove the Canyon Brake Adjuster.
ThE BRAKE SYSTEM
Press the two brake arms together, put the
Brakebooster back into position and tighten
up its clamping bolts to the prescribed torque
of 2 Nm. Ensure that the clamping bolts have
a locking paste ("Loctite", medium strength)
applied to them.
Now the rear wheel can be mounted again.
Ensure that the brake pads are
aligned correctly to the braking sur-
face of the rim. You can find further infor-
mation in the chapter "Checking and read-
justing road bike brakes" in your bicycle
manual road bike.
