b. Installing a disk brake or rim brake Front Wheel
CAUTION: If your bike is equipped with a front disk brake, be careful not to damage the disk, caliper or brake
pads when re-inserting the disk into the caliper. Never activate a disk brake’s control lever unless the disk is
correctly inserted in the caliper. See also Section 4.C.
(1) If your bike has cam action front wheel retention, move the cam lever so that it curves away from the wheel (fig. 8b). This
is the OPEN position. If your bike has through bolt or bolt-on front wheel retention, go to the next step.
(2) With the steering fork facing forward, insert the wheel between the fork blades so that the axle seats firmly at the top of
the fork dropouts. The cam lever, if there is one, should be on rider’s left side of the bicycle (fig. 8a & b). If your bike has a clip-on
type secondary retention device, engage it.
(3) If you have a traditional cam action mechanism: holding the cam lever in the ADJUST position with your right hand,
tighten the tension adjusting nut with your left hand until it is finger tight against the fork dropout (fig. 8a). If you have a
cam-and-cup system: the nut and cup (fig. 8b) will have snapped into the recessed area of the fork dropouts and no adjustment
should be required.
(4) While pushing the wheel firmly to the top of the slots in the fork dropouts, and at the same time centering the wheel rim in
the fork:
(a) With a cam action system, move the cam lever upwards and swing it into the CLOSED position (fig. 8a & b). The lever
should now be parallel to the fork blade and curved toward the wheel. To apply enough clamping force, you should have to wrap
your fingers around the fork blade for leverage, and the lever should leave a clear imprint in the palm of your hand.
(b) With a through-bolt or bolt-on system, tighten the fasteners to the torque specifications in Appendix D or the hub
manufacturers instructions.
NOTE: If, on a traditional cam action system, the lever cannot be pushed all the way to a position parallel to the fork blade, return
the lever to the OPEN position. Then turn the tension adjusting nut counterclockwise one-quarter turn and try tightening the lever
again.
D (6) With a through-bolt or bolt-on system, tighten the fasteners to the torque specifications in Appendix D or the hub
manufacturers instructions.
WARNING: Securely clamping the wheel with a cam action retention device takes considerable force. If you can
fully close the cam lever without wrapping your fingers around the fork blade for leverage, the lever does not
leave a clear imprint in the palm of your hand, and the serrations on the wheel fastener do not emboss the surfaces of
the dropouts, the tension is insufficient. Open the lever; turn the tension adjusting nut clockwise a quarter turn; then try
