Carbon components require specific handling and care. The following points must be not-
ed during maintenance, transportation or storage:
xRefer to and follow the information enclosed by the manufacturer.
xUse a torque wrench to make the correct torque adjustments.
xNever lubricate carbon components with conventional grease. Use dedicated fitting
lubricants for carbon components.
xNever expose carbon components to temperatures above 45 °C/113 °F.
xTo avoid damage from falls, park your cycle carefully and in a way that prevents it
falling over.
xNever clamp a carbon frame directly in a work stand. Fit a metal seat post and clamp
this in the work stand.
xNever retrofit a carbon frame with a kickstand as this may result in damage to the frame.
3. 8 .1 Falls and accidents
Carbon components can be damaged by a fall or accident. Damage to carbon components
is not always visible. Fibres or paint can peel off or be destroyed, and the components can
lose strength.
xHave carbon components replaced by your dealer after a fall or accident.
3.8.2 Bike carriers
A bike carrier is a device for transporting cycles by car. There is a risk of crushing the carbon
frame when clamping it in a bike carrier. This may result in material breakage during subse-
quent use. There are dedicated bike carriers specially designed for carbon bikes.
xAsk your dealer about suitable bike carriers.
3.8.3 Torques
Specific torques must be observed for screw joints in carbon components. Permitted tor-
ques can be found on the respective components. Excessively high torques may result in
damage that is difficult to see. Components can break or change and cause falls.
When you loosen screw joints and tighten them, or when you tighten screw joints that
have become loose, always leave the screw joints as they were delivered. Some are dry;
others are greased. Never grease screw joints that were delivered dry.
xRefer to the fitting information enclosed by the manufacturer.
xIf you lack the necessary expertise and the tools required, have your dealer check the
screw joints.
