rotor, available for bicycles. With this
frame and fork, use only 160mm rotors.
Changing rotor size requires adding or
removing spacers to correctly locate
the brake. Changing the spacers on this
bicycle may cause damage to the fork.

not operate the brake lever. Some disc
brakes automatically adjust clearance
when you apply the brake. If the
disc is not there, the brake will set the
clearance to the other pad, so you will
not be able to insert the disc between
the pads.

FIGURE 1 Domane Disc carbon ber fork
CARBON FIBER FORK
This bicycle has a fork made from carbon
ber composite (Figure 1). Carbon ber
can be aected by extreme heat, and
a disc brake during heavy use gets very
hot. To prevent heat from aecting the
fork, this bicycle has insulating spacers
between the fork and the brake. Do no
remove these spacers.
CONDITION 1 BICYCLE
This bicycle is equipped with disc brakes
and thru-axles. In the past, these features

equipment, but this bicycle is designed
