•ADJUSTING THE SCOTT BIKE TO THE RIDER

By choosing a specific type of bicycle you roughly determine the posture you will

be riding in (c+d). However, some components of your SCOTT bike are especially

designed so that you can adjust them to your body proportions up to a certain de-

gree. This includes the seat post, the handlebars and the stem as well as the brake

grips or brake levers/shifters.

Contact your SCOTT dealer, if you are not happy with the seating position of your

new SCOTT bike or if you want something changed. You may also ask them during

the strongly recommended first inspection after 100 to 300 km or 5 to 15 hours of

initial use. They will carry out your wishes so that you can be sure your new SCOTT

bike is safe in terms of roadworthiness, ergonomics and operational safety when

you take it home.

•WARNING: As all works require know-how, experience, suitable tools and

skills, you should restrict yourself to adjusting your seating position. Contact

your SCOTT dealer for all further settings and modifications. If you want to try

it nevertheless, read the instructions in your detailed SCOTT owner’s manual on

the enclosed SCOTT info CD.

•CAUTION: After any adjustment/assembly work, be sure to make a short

functional check as described in the chapter “Tests before every ride” and do a

test ride on your SCOTT bike in an area free of traffic.

•WARNING: Make particularly sure there is enough space between your

crotch and the top tube so that you do not hurt yourself, if you have to get off

your bike quickly (e).

•WARNING: Never ride your bike with the seat post drawn out beyond the

limit, maximum, or stop mark (f)! The seat post might break or cause severe

damage to the frame.

•CAUTION: The saddle should be set to a height from which you can just

reach the pedal in its lowest position with your heel. The hips should remain

horizontal. Check whether your toes reach to the floor when you are sitting on

the saddle. Your SCOTT dealer will be pleased to help you, if you are not happy

with your seating position. Risk of accident!

CAUTION: To be on the safe side you can replace the quick-releases by

special locks. They can only be opened and closed with a special, coded key

or an Allen key. If you are in doubt or if you have any questions, contact your

SCOTT dealer.

THRU AXLES ON THE SCOTT BIKE

Thru axles (a+b) are mounted when SCOTT bikes have to withstand high stress. On

forks and in particular together with disc brakes they make for extreme stiffness.

Safe mounting of wheels with thru axles

There is a wide range of thru-axle systems available now. Some systems are tight-

ened with quick-releases. Other systems may require special tools for assembly or

disassembly.

Read therefore in any case the chapter “Using quick-releases and thru axles” in your

detailed SCOTT owner’s manual and in the manuals of the suspension fork, thru

axle and wheel manufacturers on the enclosed SCOTT info CD before removing

the wheel or doing any maintenance work and mounting a fork/wheel combination

with thru-axle system. There the systems are described in detail.

If you are in doubt or if you have any questions, contact your SCOTT dealer.

•WARNING: Improperly mounted wheels may throw you off your bike or

result in serious accidents! Ask your SCOTT dealer to show you how to handle

the thru-axle type you have.

•CAUTION: Check the fixing after the first one to two hours of use and

subsequently every 20 hours of use.

•CAUTION: To mount the axle only use the tools recommended by the

manufacturer. Use a torque wrench whenever possible. Tighten carefully by

approaching the prescribed maximum torque value in small steps (0.5 Nm

increments) and check in between the proper fit of the component. Never

exceed the maximum torque value indicated by the manufacturer! A too tight

fixing of the axle can damage the axle or the fork leg.
