HIGH OCTANE FR & DH
Ultra-light, stiff and multi-adjustable chassis.
Geometry High Octane FR:
Geometry High Octane DH:
Eccentric headset insert, for an individual adjustment of
the headangle, without reducing the BB Offset and seat
angle!
This can be found on all Octane from 2000 to 2002 and on
the Octane DH from 1999 to 2001.
High Octane FR :
Serially mounted silver headset insert which permits an
adjustment of the head angle from 66° to 68°, in
OnePointFive-Standard. Black headset insert for 11/8”
standard and adjustment of the head angle from 66° to
68° in the small spare part box, which comes with the
bike/framesets.
High Octane DH :
Serially mounted black headset insert which permits an
adjustment of the head angle from 64,5° to 67,5°, in a
11/8” standard. Silver headset insert for OnePointFiveStandard and adjustment of the head angle from 66° to
68° in the small spare part box, which comes with the
bike/framesets.
How to adjust the headangle:
Since the head angle adjustment has proved itself
on team bikes of our DH-World cup team we also
offer it on our OCTANE models.
You only need:
- A 40mm wrench (11/8”)
- The 56mm wrench (OnePointFive) which accom
panies the bike/frameset
- A torque wrench with a 4mm Allen key
1. Loosen the 3 screws on the head tube with a
4mm Allen key but do not remove them comple
tely. These screws hold the internal head tube in
place. (It is not necessary to disassemble the
fork or any other components.)
2.. Turn the silver/black headset insert with a
40mm wrench (11/8”) or with the 56mm wrench
(OnePointFive) which accompanies the bike/fra
meset. Check the slot on the bottom side and in
front of the internal head tube. The slot should
always be in line with the slot of the head tube
clamp.
High end World Cup Down Hill full suspension bike with
outstanding techniques, an individually adjustable geometry, and the weight of a freeride bike. The triple chain
wheel and the position of the pivot also make this bike
perfect for Hardcore Freeriders.
Depending on the equipment it can either be the ultimate weapon for World Cup Downhill, the ultimate
hardcore Freerider or even the super fast Dualbike
The perfect basis for all leisure time riders: depending
on what the rider wants, the frame/bike can be changed
and equipped differently without having to buy a whole
new frame each time.

We recommend the flatter angle for downhill and
the steeper angle for freeriding.
3. Important: check the alignment again and make sure
that there is no gap in between the head tube flange
and head tube clamp.
4. Tighten all screws with 6Nm.
Adjustment of the saddle height:
Individually adjustable seat angle
headangle adjustment
Individually adjustable BB Offset
73° for uphill: upper hole on the seat tower
70° for freeride use: middle hole on the seat tower
67° for DH: lower hole on the seat tower
If you are on the way we recommend the clamping ring
which accomplishes the bike/frameset in the attached
spare part box, as an adjustment-aid. The clamping ring
should be mounted onto the saddle post before the first
bike-ride, so that a further sinking (of more than 25mm)
of the saddle post is not possible.
Plus/minus 15 mm
This strongly influences both the head and seat
angles and is the so called adjustable head angle for
other brands.
On the High Octane, the individual adjustment of the
angle allows to settle this negative effect.
Please note the "high” and "low” markings on the
mounted adjustment-plates (also enclosed in the
spare part box) for the different lengths of the
suspension.

out more than 25mm at the bottom end.
