Enduro style riding. The Syntace wheels are not intended for use in Freeride and Downhill applications.

Syntace Disc Shims are recommended for aligning the brake rotor. They will allow perfect alignment of your rotor within the brake caliper.They are also useful for aligning the brake rotor in the same position on multiple wheelsets so no more brake drag is experienced or re-positioning of caliper is neccesary.

• Only compatible with disc brake rotors with a 6 bolt pattern. Assembly • All Syntace hubs are supplied ready for assembly. The axial play may need to be adjusted when first as- sembling in your bike. Exact procedure for this can be found in section „Adjust axial play“.
0.1mm is always better than too much axial pressure on the bearings! All Syntace hubs use non stepped axles without spacer tubes between the bearings. This allows the correc- tion of the tolerances that add up when many components are assembled together which otherwise would not be possible.

• A video of how to service the hubs can be found on the Syntace website: Syntace.com > support • Under normal conditions, remove the freewheel body twice yearly, clean and lubricate. Under frequent use this may be neccesary at shorter intervals.
