How to use quick-releases and thru
axles
Quick-release
Most MERIDA bikes and MERIDA pedelecs are fitted
with quick-releases
(a)
to ensure fast adjustments,
assembly and disassembly. Be sure to check whether
all quick-releases are tight before you set off on your
MERIDA bike. Quick-releases should be handled with
greatest care, as they affect your safety directly.
Practice the proper use of quick-releases to avoid any
accidents.
Quick-release mechanisms essentially consist of two
operative elements:
1. The hand lever
(b)
on one side of the hub which cre-
ates a clamping force via a cam when you close it.
2. The tightening nut
(c)
on the other side of the hub
with which the preload on the threaded rod (quick-re-
lease axle) is set.
G
Do not touch the brake disc directly after hav-
ing stopped, e.g. after a long down-hill ride,
you may burn your fingers! Always let the
brake disc cool down before opening the quick-release.
G
Make sure the levers of both wheel quick-re-
leases are always on the side opposite to the
chain. This will help you to avoid mounting
the front wheel accidentally the wrong way round.
In the case of MERIDA bikes with disc brakes and
quick-releases having a 5-mm-axle, it may be reason-
able to mount both quick-releases with the lever on the
side of the chain drive. This helps you not to come into
contact with the hot brake disc and prevents you from
having your fingers burnt. If you are in doubt or if you
have any questions, contact your MERIDA dealer.
G
Never ride your MERIDA bike without having
checked first, whether the wheels are secure-
ly fastened
(d)
. With an insufficiently closed
quick-release the wheel can come loose, thus creating
a serious risk of accident!
A
If your MERIDA bike is equipped with
quick-releases, be sure to lock the frame
to an immovable object together with the
wheels when you leave it outside.
