KONA OWNER’S MANUAL
a. Adjusting the traditional cam action mechanism (g. 8a)
The wheel hub is clamped in place by the force of the
over-center cam pushing against one dropout and
pulling the tension adjusting nut, by way of the skewer,
against the other dropout. The amount of clamping force
is controlled by the tension adjusting nut. Turning the
tension adjusting nut clockwise while keeping the cam
lever from rotating increases clamping force; turning
it counterclockwise while keeping the cam lever from
rotating reduces clamping force. Less than half a turn
of the tension adjusting nut can make the difference
between safe clamping force and unsafe clamping
force. When using a threaded, through-bolt, over-cam
mechanism, be sure to position the cam so that it closes
parallel to the fork leg with its end oriented vertically, or
in the "12 o'clock" position.
WARNING: Failure to orient the threaded,
through-bolt over-cam mechanism parallel to the
fork leg and pointing in a vertical direction could
allow the over-cam lever to be opened by trailside
or nearby obstacles that could suddenly cause the
over-cam mechanism to open, loosening the front
wheel and causing serious injury or death. If in
any doubt, consult and check with a bicycle dealer
before riding.
WARNING: The full force of the cam action is
needed to clamp the wheel securely. Holding the
nut with one hand and turning the lever like a wing
nut with the other hand until everything is as tight
as you can get it will not clamp a cam action wheel
safely in the dropouts. See also the rst WARNING
in this Section, p. 16.
WARNING: When using a threaded, through-bolt
over-cam mechanism, be sure to only thread the axle
into the dropout while the through-bolt over-cam is in
the OPEN position. If adjusted in the CLOSED position,
the wheel will not be held securely in place, and could
result in serious injury or death.
b. Adjusting the cam-and-cup mechanism (g. 8b)
The cam-and-cup system on your front wheel will have
been correctly adjusted for your bicycle by your dealer.
Ask your dealer to check the adjustment every six months.
Do not use a cam-and-cup front wheel on any bicycle
other than the one for which your dealer adjusted it.
c. Adjusting the threaded, through-bolt over-cam mechanism
The wheel hub is clamped in place by the force of the over-
center cam pushing against one dropout and pulling ten-
sion from the threaded dropout, by way of the threaded
through-bolt. The amount of clamping force is controlled by
the amount of threads engaged within the threaded dropout.
Turning the threaded through-bolt clockwise while keep-
ing the cam lever open increases clamping force; turning it
counterclockwise while keeping the cam lever open reduces
clamping force. Less than half an additional turn engaging
more threads can make the difference between safe clamp-
ing force and unsafe clamping force.
3. Removing and Installing Wheels
WARNING: If your bike is equipped with a hub-
drive motor, please see specic instructions from the
motor manufacturer for removing the rear wheel, pay-
ing careful attention to disconnect any wiring neces-
sary for removal as instructed by the hub-drive motor
manufacturer.
