frame or the fork so that it cannot be opened accidentally.
To check whether the lever is securely locked apply pressure to the end
of the hand lever and try to turn it while it is closed. If you can turn the
lever around, open it and increase the initial tension. Screw the tighten-
ing nut on the opposite side clockwise by half a turn. Close the lever and
check it again for tightness.
Finally, lift the bicycle a few centimetres so that the wheel no longer
touches the ground and hit the tyre from above (a). If it is properly
fastened, the wheel will remain firmly fixed in the drop-outs of the frame
without any rattling noise.
If your seat post is equipped with a quick-release mechanism, check
whether the saddle is firmly fixed by trying to twist it relative to the frame

a special, coded key or an Allen key. If you are in doubt or if you
have any questions, please contact a bicycle specialist shop of
your trust!
With the DT Swiss RWS system the clamping force is not created via
a cam, but by tightening a bolted connection with a lever.
Tighten the system by turning the lever clockwise while holding the
clamping nut tight.
Depending on frame or fork the lever may touch either frame or fork dur-
ing tightening. If it does, pull out the lever, turn it back, let it engage again
before retightening.
