Important safety information
Important safety information
Do not disassemble or modify the product. This may cause the product to not operate correctly, and you
may suddenly fall and be seriously injured.
Check that the wheels are fastened securely before riding the bicycle. Using the axle release lever
incorrectly may cause the wheel to fall off, etc. and lead to serious injury due to a fall.
Confirm that the axle release lever does not interfere with the disc brake rotor even when it is fully
engaged. The axle release lever may interfere with the disc brake rotor if it is on the disc brake rotor side,
which is dangerous. If the axle release lever interferes with the disc brake rotor, immediately stop use and
contact the place of purchase or a distributor.
For details on the E-THRU axle, refer to the E-THRU axle user's manual.
This hub must only be used in combination with special frames and through axles. If it is used in
combination with any other frame or through axle, the wheel may detach from the bicycle while riding,
resulting in serious injury.
