ASSEMBLY FROM THE BIKEGUARD
Close the quick-release and verify that the wheel is se-
curely fixed. Read chapter "How to use quick-releases
and thru axles" beforehand.
Verify that the rear wheel is accurately centred be-
tween the rear stays. Make sure the quick-release le-
ver and the drop-out safety-tabs are properly closed.
CHECkING THE BRAkE AND THE GEARS
After mounting the wheel and tightening the quick-re-
lease pull the brake lever several times and spin the
wheel subsequently.
The rotor should not drag on the brake caliper or on
the brake pads. Spin both wheels to make sure they
run true. For more information, read chapter "The
wheels - tyres, inner tubes and air pressure".
Check the proper functioning of the gears. Shift
through all gears and make sure the rear derailleur
does not collide with the spokes when the chain runs
on the largest sprocket. Read up on how to adjust the
gears in chapter "The gears". After the wheel mount-
ing do a brake test in stationary. Actuating the brake
lever should generate a clear-cut braking response
before the lever touches the handlebars.
New brake pads of disc brakes have to be
!
bedded in.
REAR DERAILLEUR ASSEMBLY CANYON STRIVE ES / ESX
To ensure a secure transport the Strive is supplied
with the rear derailleur dismounted. The rear derail-
leur can be assembled with a few simple steps.
The rear derailleur is mounted to the derailleur hang-
er. This derailleur hanger connects the rear derailleur
to the frame. The derailleur hanger is mounted to the
right drop-out at the Strive's rear frame.
Slide the greased bolt through the drop-out.
ASSEMBLY FROM THE BIKEGUARD
Start by screwing the bolt into the derailleur hanger
without tightening it. Mount the rear wheel, as de-
scribed in chapter "How to use quick-releases and
thru axles".
Tighten the derailleur hanger by using the torque
wrench supplied with the Strive.
Do observe the appriopriate torque value of 6 Nm.
