WHEELSET INSTALLATION

1.For mounting tires, carefully follow the instructions provided by the tire manufacturer.

2.Apply light grease onto the Freehub Body. Install the cassette per manufacturer’s recommendations. The Shimano freehub body is compatible with S11 cassette. A spacer (A) is required when mounting S9 & S10 cassette.

The Campagnolo Freehub Body is compatible with C10 and C11 cassettes.

The rims of Trimax30 are tubeless ready rims.

A tube must be installed when using the rim spoke protector (rim tape) supplied together with the weel. If you want use tubeless type tires, use a proper rim tape (after removing the rim tape supplied with the wheels) and sealant. Follow installation instructions of tubeless tire manufacturer.

WARNING Do not use Vision carbon specific pads with non carbon (alloy) rims.

3. Insert the Quick Releases into the wheel. The lever of the Quick Releases should go on the nondrive side. Thread the Quick Release nut, but do not tight.

Note: Front Quick Release is shorter than rear.

4. Install the Front and Rear Wheel into the drop-outs of the fork and frame. With the QR lever in the open position, tighten the QR until it is in contact with the frame or fork dropouts. Close the QR lever. The QR lever should require substantial effort to close the last 25-30 degrees. If it closes with only moderate hand pressure, the QR must be readjusted by opening the QR lever, then turning the

QR nut clockwise until the closing action of the QR lever requires the recommended force.

WARNING • If you are unfamiliar with Quick Release assembly it is recommended to ask for advice from your local bike shop. Riding with an improperly assembled Quick Release can cause the wheel to shift while in use resulting in accident and injury.

• Regularly check the QR adjustment. If the Quick Release is not installed correctly, the wheel may become separated from the fork and result in an accident, personal injury or death.

• Always close the skewer lever completely. Do not allow a frame or fork tube or any other member to inhibit full lever travel when closing. Failure to close the lever completely will limit cam engagement and the skewer’s ability to hold the wheel in place.

Note: The QR must be periodically lubricated at the pivot points so it can exert maximum sideways force.

WARNING Use original Vision spare parts only for your service. Use of incorrect spoke types and lengths may cause failure of the wheel resulting in accident and person injury.

WHEEL TRUING

CAUTION Bicycle wheels are straight, round, and stable because of a balance of spoke tension. The rim’s shape can be changed by tightening and loosening spoke’s nipples. Wheel truing should be performed by persons with adequate wheel truing experience or training. If you do not have confidence or experience with wheel truing, take the wheels to a qualified technician for service.

HUB MAINTENANCE

Vision hubs are equipped with high grade, precision, sealed cartridge bearings. Due to varying factors it is important to have the hub bearings inspected and maintained periodically. The recommended service intervals are:

• Inspection after each riding season, one calendar year, or 8,000 to 10,000 Km, whichever comes first.

• After use in rain, storm, muddy, and wet conditions

• Anytime rotational smoothness, signs of corrosion, damage to rubber seals and bearing covers is apparent.

Tech Tips:

• Avoid getting solvents, aerosol lubricants (as for chain), and strong cleaning solutions on the hubs. The solvent can wick passed the seals and break down the bearing grease.

• When washing the bike, use only mild soap and a gentle stream of water for rinsing.

Always avoid pressure washing. Such systems can direct super heated water with special wetting agents at 10X atmospheric pressure, forcing water passed the bearing seal and removing vital bearing grease.

CAUTION Since specific tools and experience are necessary for hub maintenance, it is recommended that the service should be done by a Vision Authorized

Service Center.

Please contact the Authorized Vision Distributors and Warranty Service Centers closest to your country of residence. A list of Authorized is posted at VISIONTECHUSA.COM.

RIM MAINTENANCE

-Carbon fiber rims are complex composite structures. Please ride them thoughtfully and inspect them regularly for damage and wear.

-Vision Carbon rim’s brake surface has a special layer to resist brake heat and abrasion.

Discontinue use and replace rim when the layer has worn off.

-When braking, especially during descents, use both front and rear brakes. Front and Rear brakes have different benefits and limitations, so use them according to instructions from an experienced rider. It is important that both rims are employed during descents to properly dissipate heat.

-When riding in wet or dirty conditions, listen for scraping sounds that might indicate soil or grit is trapped in the brake pad. If so, the pad will be less effective for stopping and extra abrasive against the rim. Stop, remove the wheel and inspect the pad surface.

Remove any debris before it damages the rim brake surface.

-Water on the rim and brake pads will reduce brake effectiveness. In the wet, allow extra distance for stopping.

-Vigorous braking will cause brake pads to melt and mark the rim brake track. Do not allow melted pad material to accumulate on the rim surface. Pad deposits should be removed with care using a slightly abrasive pad and alcohol. Be careful to keep solvents from reaching the tire or the rim cement that securing the tire. Pad material on the rim brake track can interfere with brake response, cause vibration, and create hot spots that could damage the rim.

-If, during frequent inspections, noticeable impact damage or any other deformation of the rim is apparent, discontinue use and immediately seek advice from an experienced mechanic. If an experienced mechanic is unavailable, contact Vision directly at

VISIONTECHUSA.COM.
