Seat Tube - Canyon Mountain bike Manual

40 FRAMESETS – ASSEMBLY
BOTTOM BRACkET BEARINGS
All frames: BSA/BSC 1.370x24T,
(Right cup left hand threading!)
Width of bottom bracket shell:
Mountain bikes 68 mm
Torque model 73 mm
Pressfit 92 mm
(or 89.5 mm with 2.5 mm spacer)
Common cartridge bearings can be mounted directly
into the bottom bracket shell of all models with high-
grade grease. Observe the torque specifications of
the bottom bracket manufacturer.
REAR FRAME WIDTH
All mountain bike frames: 135 mm
Rear frame width with X12: 142 mm
REPLACEABLE DERAILLEUR HANGER
All frame models have a sufficiently fastened replace-
able derailleur hanger. Observe a tightening torque of
1.5 Nm. Do not exceed the maximum torque of 1.5 Nm.
Expect: Strive 6 Nm
BOTTLE CAGE
Use a maximum torque of 4.5 Nm. Do not exceed the
maximum torque of 4.5 Nm.
CABLE STOPS
The cable stops riveted onto the Canyon Ultimate CF
and Spectral frame must only be subjected to forces
acting in the same direction as the gear or brake ca-
bles. Forces acting at an oblique angle or against the
direction of the cable can cause damage to the frame.
Do not exceed the tightening torque of the bearing manufacturer
Do not exceed the maximum torque of 1.5 Nm when replacing the re-
placeable derailleur hanger
Do not exceed the maximum torque of 4.5 Nm when tightening the
bottle cage
When replacing the derailleur hanger,
i
make sure to apply a little grease between
derailleur hanger and frame!
SEAT POST
When selecting a new seat post make sure it has the
same nominal diameter as the frame's seat tube. You
should be able to slide it in easily without pressing or
turning. A mismatch between frame and seat post can
cause failure of the seat post.
Before mounting the seat post on the frame make
sure the seat tube is absolutely free of sharp edges
and burrs. If either the seat post or the frame is made
of carbon, then both parts have to be free of oil and
grease. Clean and deburr the seat tube, if necessary.
Take care not to overtighten the seat post binder bolt
or quick-release. Be sure to read the notes given in
chapter "Adjusting the saddle to the correct height"
as well as the permitted torques in chapter "General
notes on care and inspection" and follow the operat-
ing instructions of the component manufacturers, as
well. Overtightening may cause a seat post failure,
resulting in a crash and/or injury of the rider.
Use Canyon carbon assembly paste to
i
achieve a firm seat of the seat post.
Observe the information on seat post
i
diameters given under www.canyon.com/
service
FRAMESETS – ASSEMBLY
Make sure the seat post matches accurately the frame
Do not overtighten the quick-release lever
Even a slight mismatch between seat post
and seat tube diameter can lead to a rup-
ture of frame or carbon seat post. This can result
in an accident or injury to the rider.
Never grease a carbon seat post or the
seat tube of a carbon frame.
Your seat post must be inserted into the
seat tube beyond its minimum mark and its
end must reach beyond the top tube. Never ride
your Canyon with the minimum mark of the seat
post being visible.
