Correct position
Incorrect position
Installing the pedals
Locate the right pedal (marked with the letter R) and left pedal (marked with the letter L).
Fit the right pedal (R) by inserting the threaded pin of the pedal into the corresponding crank arm on the right side of the bike
and screwing it clockwise (turn it towards the front wheel) until it is tightened using a 15mm wrench.
Fit the left pedal (L) by inserting the threaded pin of the pedal into the corresponding crank arm on the left side of the bike
and screwing it anticlockwise (turn it towards the front wheel) until it is tightened using a 15mm wrench.
CAUTION
Verify and regularly check that the various bolted elements, fastening screws, quick releases and pass-through pins are
correctly tightened, and perform an overall check to ensure that all the parts are in order.
The nuts and all the other self-tightening parts can become loose so, these components need to be periodically checked and
tightened.
The recommended tightening torques for fastening the specific parts/components on the bike (e.g. handlebars, handlebar
attachment and stem, saddle, saddle clamp, wheels, etc.) can be identified depending on the relevant elements. An average
torque of 20Nm can be used for all other fastenings.
Verification of the correct tightening of the parts/components through lever systems (quick release, handlebar attachment,
seatpost collar, etc.), in the absence of technically precise indications of the relative values, can be done by testing that the
relative part/component being fixed is not mobile and/or unstable if subjected to a vigorous attempt to remove and/or extract
