WHEEL ATTACHMENT
The wheels are attached to the frame via ei
-
ther an axle with a hex nut or a quick release
clamped in the dropouts. More information
on quick releases on page 18 –19.
AXLE NUTS
Note the respective torque settings of the
axle nuts.
THROUGH AXLES
Some Riese & Müller models use a front fork
with through axle. Please follow the instruc
-
tions in the separately included front fork
manual.
QUICK RELEASES
The quick release consists of two control
elements:
• A lever A on one side of the hub that pro
-
duces the clamping force.
• A locking nut B which is threaded on the
opposite side that sets the tension.
DANGER!
Never ride a bike without rst
checking that the wheels are
securely attached to the frame
with a quick release or bolt. If
not securely attached, the wheel
could fall out during the ride and
lead to a severe injury!
DANGER!
Check the tight t of quick re-
leases, thru axles and bolts even
if you parked your E-bike only
shortly at an unattended place.
Do not ride your E-bike with
untightened quick releases.
