Thru axles

(a-d)

provide suspension forks and rear

shocks with a higher stiffness. Whenever your MERIDA

bike is exposed to high loads, it remains directionally

stable and the suspension elements work as usual.

There is currently a wide range of thru-axle systems

available. Some systems are tightened with quick-re-

leases. Other systems may require special tools for as-

sembly or disassembly.

Whatever system you use, make sure during the as-

sembly that the thru axles, the drop-outs and the hubs

are clean. Clean the components with an absorbent

cloth, if necessary, by using water and a little detergent.

In case you do not succeed in adjusting and ﬁxing the

wheel, as described, contact your MERIDA dealer.

Improperly mounted wheels may throw you

off your bike or result in serious accidents!

Therefore, if you have the slightest doubt,

contact your MERIDA dealer and ask them to explain

the system of your MERIDA bike to you.

After wheel mounting test the brakes in sta-

tionary. You should reach the pressure point

of the brake before the brake lever reaches

the handlebars. In the case of hydraulic brakes pump

them, if necessary, until you reach a precise pressure

point. Check by compressing the suspension fork re-

peatedly.

To mount the axle only use the tools rec-

ommended by the manufacturer. Always

use a torque wrench. Tighten carefully by

approaching the prescribed maximum torque value in

small steps (0.5 Nm increments) and check the prop-

er ﬁt of the component in between. Never exceed the

maximum torque value indicated by the manufacturer!

A too tight ﬁxing of the axle can damage the axle, the

fork leg or the rear frame.

Before mounting or replacing a fork/wheel

combination with thru-axle system, be sure

to read ﬁrst the operating instructions of the

respective suspension fork or wheel manufacturer on

this MERIDA CD-ROM.
