Torque settings
DANGER
Only use appropriate tools to tighten screws and bolts. Observe
the specified torque setting. The component manufacturer's torque
settings take precedence (where available). Failure to comply can
result in screws/bolts becoming loose, tearing away or fracturing. If
that happens while you are riding the bike, components may come
off and you could have a severe crash. If screws are overtightened,
components can also be damaged. Tighten all screws and bolts
that are relevant for safety with a torque wrench. This indicates the
corresponding torque in newton metres (Nm).
If no values are shown on the component or component manuals, use the
torque settings from the following table.
