General indications
We thank you for buying the 9690CARBON Wheels, a product that
will guarantee you security and functionality through the years.
They have been designed to be fitted with UST Tubeless tyres and
clincher tyre for use only on cross-country bicycles (do not use
them for downhill, freestyle, acrobatic, four-cross or any extreme
off-road riding). The 990CARBON Wheels is built using a new inno-
vative procedure, firstly the wheel is assembled manually by hand,
the wheels is then balanced with a manual manipulation and lastly
using a computerised wheel balancing machine the wheel spoke
tension are set and balanced and the wheel "trued" to strict tole-
rances. All of this ensures a wheel of optimal performance.
Before proceeding with using the Wheels, please read carefully the
following instruction and store them in a safe place for eventually
reusing.

ted to your wheels.
Attention, do not use tyres/tubular tyres with
too high or low air pressure, failure to do so could lead to a serious
or fatal accident.
• Check that the wheels are firmly anchored to the frame with the
locking in the correct closed position. Raise a wheel and thrust with
force the tyre many times; the wheel must never get unhooked; do
the same with the other wheel.
MAIN INDEX
Warning, an incorrect locking may cause the detachment of the
wheel and derive in accidents and serious or fatal injuries.
• Check the tension of the spokes so as to notice any spokes
which got loose.« In the case spokes are loose, contact a qualified
mechanic or special personnel to perform the tensioning.

rious or fatal injuries.

te side the complete pin.
• Once you take out the pin from hub's body, you could, if it is
necessary, change the bearings.
To reassembly it:
• Put the pin into the hub's body and lock with power the mobile
side with a torque of 15 Nm. If necessary, adjust the hub by wor-
king on the ring (D):
• Unlock the grub screw (E) with a key (B) (Pic. 1).
• Turn the ring clockwise to drop the sliding, and anti-clockwise to
raise the sliding. Lock the grub screw (E).
