DT Swiss RWS quick-release system
The RWS system from DT Swiss (a-c) for road racing and cyclo-cross racing bikes
is a special type of quick-release for front and rear wheels. The RWS system is
compatible with all standard drop-outs.
Make sure during the assembly that the axles, the hubs, the drop-outs of the fork and
the rear frame are clean. Clean the components with an absorbent cloth, if necessary,
by using water and a little detergent.
In case you do not succeed in adjusting and fixing the wheel, as described, contact
your BERGAMONT dealer.
Wheel mounting
Put the front wheel into the fork and mount the rotor simultaneously, if necessary, in
the brake calliper. Make sure that in the area of the rear wheel the chain runs over the
sprockets and over both pulleys of the rear derailleur.
Bring the front or the rear wheel into the correct position between the drop-outs and
the fork or rear frame and slide the RWS quick-release axle from the left side through
the drop-outs and the hub. Mount the lock nut on the right side.
Hold the lock nut on the right side of the hub tight. Turn the RWS quick-release lever
clockwise to pre-tighten the RWS system. Depending on the fork mounted or the
frame model, the number of turns you need varies. You need at least six, in most
cases however more turns. During the first turns you should be able to turn the RWS
quick-release lever nearly without resistance.
Turn the quick-release lever subsequently forcefully clockwise until the axle is
hand-tight.
Make sure the RWS quick-release lever does not stand out to the front (d). Open the RWS
quick-release lever a little (e, position 1) to bring it into a favourable position. Turn the
quick-release lever then into the desired position (e, position 2) and re-close it towards the
hub (e, position 3).
Close the release lever of the brake or hook in the cable. Actuate the brake lever
to make the brake work. The brake pads of rim brakes must hit the rim evenly with
their entire surface without touching the tyre during braking, in open condition or in
between.
Lift the wheel and give it a strong tap from above. The wheel must be securely fixed
and must not rattle.
Wheel removal
To open the RWS system turn the quick-release lever anticlockwise (f) by holding
the lock nut tight on the other side of the hub. Typically, you need not open the RWS
system completely. Open it only so far until the wheel slides off the drop-outs. Open it
fully only in exceptional cases and remove the axle completely from the hub.
DANGER!
G
Improperly mounted wheels may throw you off your bike or result in serious
accidents! Therefore, if you have the slightest doubt, contact your BERGAMONT
dealer and ask him to explain the system of your BERGAMONT bike to you.
DANGER!
G
After wheel mounting test the brakes in stationary. You should reach the pressure
point of the brake before the brake lever reaches the handlebars. In the case of
hydraulic brakes pump them, if necessary, until you reach a precise pressure point.
DANGER!
G
Do not open the red screw to open or close the RWS system.
NOTE!
I
Before mounting or replacing a fork/wheel combination with thru-axle system, be
sure to read first the manuals of the respective fork or wheel manufacturer. More
