counterclockwise. (Fig. C-1)
NOTE: Be sure the directional indicators on the rotor point in the same direction as the
rotation of the wheel.
CAUTION: DO NOT TOUCH THE DISC IMMEDIATELY AFTER USE – IT WILL BE HOT.
D) MOUNTING THE CALIPER
For flat mount or post mount adapters, hold the adapter so that the stamped “UP” is oriented upwards. For use
without adaptors, proceed directly to next step.
Assemble the adapter and front caliper together, tightening torque is 5-7Nm(4mm)
(Fig. D-1)
NOTE: Tightening torque is 6-8 Nm(5mm) for post mount.
Align caliper with frame/fork mounting holes.·
Attach the caliper to the fork or frame using two mounting bolts, but do not fully tighten at this time. (Fig. D-2)
E) MOUNTING THE MASTER CYLINDER BODY
NOTE: Giant Hydraulic Disc brake systems are designed for use only with Giant Contact SL, Contact and Connect
stems
Assemble the master cylinder body to stem extension being sure that the hydraulic hoses are facing
downwards
Tighten Stem bolts following the sequence shown (Fig. E-1), fastening torque is 6 Nm (Fig. E-2)
F) Cable Installation
· The Braking cable housing are consisted by two types of cable housings (Coiled Cable Housing &Compressionless
cable Housing) Coiled cable housing serves as an adopter that protects the braking lever from getting damaged by
the compressionless cable housing. Compressionless Housing will provide the best braking performance. For cable
installation, cut the compressionless housing to accommodate your bar width and preference. Be sure to cut
accurately to minimize tight bends and acute angles for optimized brake lever feel. Confirm that the housing is cut
evenly, not frayed and wire strands are not exposed (Fig. F-1). For best braking performance, use compressionless
housing with linear wire strands andplease keep the coiled wire housing as short as possible.
