9 TESTS BEFORE YOUR FRST RDE 1. f you want to use your bike on publi roas, it has to omply with legal requirements. These requirements may vary in eah ountry. Thittings of your SCOTT bike are, therefore, not neessarily omplete (a). sk your SCOTT ealer onerning the laws an regulations appliable in your ountry or in the ountry you inten to use your SCOTT bike. Have your SCOTT bike equippe aoringly before using it on publi roas. For more information see the hapter Legal requirements for riing on publi roas. 2. re you familiar with the brake system (b)? Have a look at the SCOTT bike ar an hek whether the brake lever of thront brake is on the sie you are use to (right or left). f it is not, ask your SCOTT ealer to swith the brake levers before you set off for thirst time. Your new bike is equippe with moern brakes whih may bar more powerful than those you were use to so far. Be sure to first pratise using the brakes on a level, non-slip surfae off publi roas! Slowly approah higher brake performanes an spees. For more information see the hapter Brakes an the manuals of the omponent manufaturers on this SCOTT info CD. 3. re you familiar with the type an funtioning of the gears ()? sk your SCOTT ealer to explain you the gear system an make yourself familiar with your new gears in an area free of traffi, if neessary. For more information see the hapter ears an the manuals of the omponent manufaturers on this SCOTT info CD. 4. re sale an hanlebars properly ajuste? The sale shoul be set to a height from whih you an just reah the peal in its lowest position with your heel (). The hips shoul remain horizontal. Chek whether your toes reah to thloor when you are sitting on the sale. Your SCOTT ealer will be please to help you, if you are not happy with your seating position. For more information see the hapter justing the SCOTT bike to the rier. 5. f your SCOTT bike is equippe with lipless or step-in peals (e): Have you ever trie yling with the respetive yling shoes? First pratise loking one shoe onto a peal an isengaging it while staning on the other leg. sk your SCOTT ealer to explain you the peals an to ajust them to your nees. For more information see the hapter Peals an shoes an the manuals of the omponent manufaturers on this SCOTT info CD. Be aware that the istane you nee to stop your bike inreases, when you are riing with your hans on aero bars or on triathlon bars. The brake levers are not always within easy reah. Be sure to use your SCOTT bike only for its intene purpose, as it may otherwise not withstan the stress an fail. Risk of falling! Make partiularly sure there is enough spae between your roth an the top tube (f) so that you o not hurt yourself, if you have to get off your biyle quikly. Note that both braking effet an tyre grip an be reue rastially in wet onitions. Look well ahea when riing on wet roas an go well below the spee you woul rie at in ry onitions. 16 ENLSH OWNER S MNUL 2017 ROD BKE ENLSH 17

10 lak of pratie when using lipless peals or too muh spring tension in the mehanism an lea to a very firm onnetion, from whih you annot quikly step out! Risk of falling! n ase you ha a rash with your SCOTT bike, perform at least the hek esribe in the hapters Tests before every rie an Tests after an aient. Only rie bak very arefully on your SCOTT bike, if it passe the tests without any problems. Do not aelerate or brake har an o not rie your bike out of the sale. f you are in oubt, have yourself pike up by ar, instea of taking any risk. Bak home you nee to hek your SCOTT bike thoroughly one again. f you are in oubt or if you have any questions, ontat your SCOTT ealer! For SCOTT roa an triathlon bikes as well as time trial mahines trailers (a), hil arriers (b) an pannier raks are not permitte. We reommen that you take out private liability insurane. Make sure that overagor biyle amage is provie by your insurane. Contat your insurane ompany or ageny. TESTS BEFORE EVERY RDE Your SCOTT bike has unergone numerous tests uring proution an a final hek has been arrie out by your SCOTT ealer. Nevertheless, be sure to hek thollowing points to exlue any malfuntioning that may be ue to the transport of your SCOTT bike or to hanges a thir person may have performe on your SCOTT bike before elivery: 1. re the quik-release levers (), thru axles or nuts of thront an rear wheel, the seat post () an other omponents properly lose? For more information see the hapter Using quik-releases an thru axles an the manuals of the omponent manufaturers on this SCOTT info CD. 2. re the tyres in goo onition an o they have suffiient pressure (e)? The minimum an maximum pressure (in bar or PS) is iniate on the tyre sie. For more information see the hapter Wheels an tyres an the manuals of the omponent manufaturers on this SCOTT info CD. 3. Spin the wheels to hek whether the rims are true. f you have is brakes, wath the gap between frame an rim or tyre an, if you have rim brakes, between brake pa an rim. Untrue rims an be an iniation of tyres with rupture sies or broken spokes. For more information see the hapter Wheels an tyres an the manuals of the omponent manufaturers on this SCOTT info CD. 4. Test the brakes in stationary by firmly pulling the brake levers towars the hanlebars (f). The brake pas of rim brakes must hit the rim evenly with their entire surfae without touhing the tyre uring braking, in open onition or in between. You shoul not be able to pull the lever all the way to the hanlebars. f your bike has hyrauli brakes, hek the hyrauli brake ables for oil or brake flui leaks! Chek the thikness of the brake pas, as well. 18 ENLSH OWNER S MNUL 2017 ROD BKE ENLSH 19

11 With is brakes (a) you shoul have a stable pressure point at one. f you have to atuate the brake lever more than one to get a positive braking response, have the SCOTT bike heke by your SCOTT ealer immeiately. For more information see the hapter Brakes an the manuals of the omponent manufaturers on this SCOTT info CD. 5. Let your SCOTT bike boune on the groun from a small height (b). f there is any rattling, hek where it omes from. Chek the bearings an bolte onnetions, if neessary. Tighten them slightly, if neessary. 6. f your bike has a kikstan, make sure it is fully raise before you set off. Risk of falling! 7. Do not forget to take a high quality D- () or hain lok with you on your rie. The only way to effetively protet your SCOTT bike against theft is to lok it to an immovable objet. 8. f you want to rie on publi roas, make sure your SCOTT bike is equippe aoring to the appliable regulations of your ountry (). Riing without lights an refletors in ark or im onitions is very angerous beause you will be seen too late or not at all by other roa users. set of lights that orrespons to the regulations is a must on publi roas. Turn on the lights as soon as usk sets in. For more information see the hapter Legal requirements for riing on publi roas. Do not use your SCOTT bike, if it fails at one of these points! efetive SCOTT bike an lea to serious aients! f you are in oubt or if you have any questions, ontat your SCOTT ealer. mproperly losastenings, e.g. quik-releases, an ause parts of your SCOTT bike to ome loose an result in serious aients! Be aware that the istane you nee to stop your bike inreases, when you are riing with your hans on aero bars or on triathlon bars (e). The brake levers are not always within easy reah. During use your SCOTT bike is unergoing stress resulting from the surfae of the roa an from the rier s ation. Due to these ynami loas, the ifferent parts of your bike reat with wear an fatigue. Please hek your SCOTT bike regularly, i.e. aoring to the SCOTT servie an maintenane sheule, for wear marks, srathes, eformations, olour hanges an any iniation of raking. Components whih have reahe the en of their servie life may break without previous warning. Let your SCOTT ealer maintain an servie your SCOTT bike regularly, i.e. aoring to the SCOTT servie an maintenane sheule. n ases of oubt it is always best to replae omponents. USN QUCK-RELESES ND THRU XLES QUCK-RELESES ON THE SCOTT BKE Most SCOTT bikes aritte with quik-releases to ensurast ajustments, assembly an isassembly. Be sure to hek whether all quik-releases are tight before you set off on your SCOTT bike. Quik-releases shoul be hanle with greatest are, as they affet your safety iretly. Pratise the proper use of quik-releases to avoi any aients. Quik-release retention mehanisms essentially onsist of two operative elements (f): 1. The han lever on one sie of the hub whih reates a lamping fore via a am when you lose it. 2. The tightening nut on the other sie of the hub with whih the preloa on the threae ro (quik-release axle) is set ENLSH OWNER S MNUL 2017 ROD BKE ENLSH 21

12 Do not touh the brake is iretly after having stoppe, e.g. after a long own-hill rie, you may burn your fingers! lways let the brake is ool own before opening the quik-release. Safastening of a omponent with a quik-release Open the quik-release. You shoul now be able to rea Open (a) on the lever. Make sure the omponent to bastene is in the aurate position. For more information see the hapters justing the SCOTT bike to the rier an Wheels an tyres an the manuals of the omponent manufaturers on this SCOTT info CD. Move the lever bak, as if to lose it. Now you shoul be able to rea Close on the outsie of the lever. When you start losing the lever you shoul feel virtually no resistane with your han until the lever is at a right angle to thrame/ fork (b). When ontinuing to lose the lever the resistane you feel shoul inrease signifiantly an towars the en even more strength is require to lose the lever. Use the ball of your thumb while your fingers pull on an immovable part, suh as the fork () or a rear stay, but not on rake is or spoke, to push it in all the way. n its en position, the lever shoul be at a right angle to the quik-release axle (), i.e. it shoul not stan out. The lever shoul lie lose to thrame or thork so that it annot be opene aientally. Make sure, however, that the lever is easy to hanlor atual quik use. To hek whether the lever is seurely loke apply pressure to the en of the han lever an try to turn it while it is lose (e). f you an turn the lever aroun, open it an inrease the preloa. Srew the tightening nut on the opposite sie lokwise by half a turn. Close the quik-release lever an hek it again for tightness. Finally lift the bike a few entimetres, so that the wheel no longer touhes the groun an hit the tyrrom above. f it is properly fastene, the wheel will remain firmly fixe in the rop-outs of thrame or fork without prouing any rattling. f your seat post is equippe with a quik-release mehanism, hek whether the sale is firmly fixe by trying to twist it relative to thrame (f). Make sure the levers of both wheel quik-releases are always on the sie opposite to the hain. This will help you to avoi mounting thront wheel aientally the wrong way roun. n the ase of SCOTT bikes with is brakes an quik-releases having a 5-mm-axle, it may be reasonable to mount both quik-releases with the lever on the sie of the hain rive. This helps you not to ome into ontat with the hot brake is an prevents you from having your fingers burnt. f you are in oubt or if you have any questions, ontat your SCOTT ealer. Never rie your SCOTT bike without having hekirst, whether the wheels are seurely fastene. With an insuffiiently lose quik-release the wheel an ome loose, thus reating a serious risk of aient! CUTON! f your SCOTT roike has thru axles, rea the manuals of the thru-axle an wheel manufaturers on this SCOTT info CD. CUTON! f your SCOTT bike is equippe with quik-releases, be sure to lok the frame to an immovable objet together with the wheels when you leave it outsie. nti-theft protetion! To be on the safe sie you an replae the quik-releases by speial loks. They an only be opene an lose with a speial, oe key or an llen key. f you are in oubt or if you have any questions, ontat your SCOTT ealer. fter wheel mounting test the brakes in stationary. You shoul reah the pressure point of the brake before the brake lever reahes the hanlebars. n the ase of hyrauli brakes pump them, if neessary, until you reah a preise pressure point. 22 ENLSH OWNER S MNUL 2017 ROD BKE ENLSH 23

13 DT Swiss RWS quik-release system The RWS system from DT Swiss (a-) for roa raing an ylo-ross raing bikes is a speial type of quik-releasor front an rear wheels. The RWS system is ompatible with all stanar rop-outs. Make sure uring the assembly that the axles, the hubs, the rop-outs of the fork an the rear frame are lean. Clean the omponents with an absorbent loth, if neessary, by using water an a little etergent. n ase you o not suee in ajusting an fixing the wheel, as esribe, ontat your SCOTT ealer. Wheel mounting Put thront wheel into thork an mount the rotor simultaneously, if neessary, in the brake alliper. Make sure that in the area of the rear wheel the hain runs over the sprokets an over both pulleys of the rear erailleur. Bring thront or the rear wheel into the orret position between the ropouts an thork or rear frame an slie the RWS quik-release axlrom the left sie through the rop-outs an the hub. Mount the lok nut on the right sie. Hol the lok nut on the right sie of the hub tight. Turn the RWS quik-release lever lokwise to pre-tighten the RWS system. Depening on thork mounte or thrame moel, the number of turns you nee varies. You nee at least six, in most ases however more turns. During thirst turns you shoul be able to turn the RWS quik-release lever nearly without resistane. Turn the quik-release lever subsequently forefully lokwise until the axle is han-tight. Make sure the RWS quik-release lever oes not stan out to thront (). Open the RWS quik-release lever a little (e, position 1) to bring it into a favourable position. Turn the quik-release lever then into the esire position (e, position 2) an re-lose it towars the hub (e, position 3). Close the release lever of the brake or hook in the able. tuate the brake lever to make the brake work. The brake pas of rim brakes must hit the rim evenly with their entire surfae without touhing the tyre uring braking, in open onition or in between. Lift the wheel an give it a strong tap from above. The wheel must be seurely fixe an must not rattle. Wheel removal To open the RWS system turn the quik-release lever antilokwise (f) by holing the lok nut tight on the other sie of the hub. Typially, you nee not open the RWS system ompletely. Open it only so far until the wheel slies off the rop-outs.

The system has a larger threa an an be release with no more than two an a half turns. Make sure uring the assembly that the thru axles, the rop-outs of thork an the hubs are lean. Clean the omponents with an absorbent loth, if neessary, by using water an a little etergent. n ase you o not suee in ajusting an fixing the wheel, as esribe, ontat your SCOTT ealer. Safastening of omponents with a quik-release Wheel mounting Put the wheel into thork or the rear frame an mount the rotor simultaneously, if neessary, in the brake alliper. Make sure that in the area of the rear wheel the hain runs over the sprokets an over both pulleys of the rear erailleur. Bring thront wheel into the right position between the rop-outs an slie the thru axle with open quik-release lever from the left sie through the ropout an the hub. s soon as you have reahe the opposite sie, turn the thru axle lokwise into the nut on the right sie. Do not apply fore, but make sure the axle threa engages properly with the nut on the other sie. During thirst turn you shoul be able to turn the RWS quik-release lever of the thru axle nearly without resistane. f everything fits, turn the RWS quik-release lever all in all two an a half turns lokwise to pre-tighten the RWS system. You will feel an inreasing resistane at the lever. Only turn the axle until it is han-tight. Make sure the RWS quik-release lever oes not stan out to thront (). Open the RWS quik-release lever a little (e, position 1) to bring it into a favourable position. Turn the RWS quik-release lever then into the esire position (e, position 2) an re-lose it towars the hub (e, position 3). tuate the brake lever to make the brake work. Lift the wheel an give it a strong tap from above. The wheel must be seurely fixe an must not rattle. Wheel removal Turn the quik-release lever antilokwise to open the RWS system.

When pealling, the ball of your foot shoul be positione above the entre of the peal axle. With your feet in this position you shoul not be able to streth your legs ompletely straight at the lowest point, otherwise your pealling will beome awkwar (). Chek the height of your sale with flat-sole shoes. This is best one with suitable yling shoes. Sit on the sale an put your heel on the peal at its lowest point. Your leg shoul bully strethe an your hips shoul remain horizontal (e). To ajust the sale height loosen the quik-release lever (see the hapter Using quik-releases an thru axles ) or the biner bolt of the seat post lamp at the top of the seat tube. The latter requires suitable tools, e.g. an llen key, with whih you turn the bolt two to three turns antilokwise. Now you an perform the vertial ajustment of the seat post. Be sure not to pull out the seat post too far the mark on the seat post (f) (en, max., min., stop or the like) shoul always remain within the seat tube an always grease the part of an aluminium or titanium seat post that is inserte into a seat tube mae of aluminium, titanium or steel.

23 BRKES Brakes (a) are usor ajusting one s spee to the surrouning terrain an traffi. n an emergeny situation, the brakes must bring your SCOTT bike to a halt as quikly as possible. n the event of suh emergeny brakings, the rier s weight shifts forwar abruptly, thus reuing the loa on the rear wheel. The rate of eeleration is primarily limite by the anger of the rear wheel losing ontat with the groun (b), resulting in an overturning of the SCOTT bike an, seonly, by the grip of the tyres on the roa. Suh a problem beomes partiularly aute when riing ownhill. Therefore, in ase of an emergeny braking you shoul try to shift your weight towars the rear an the groun as far as possible. tuate both brakes simultaneously () an bear in min that, ue to the weight transfer, thront brakes an generate a far better braking effet on a surfae with goo grip. Make yourself familiar with the operation before you set off for thirst time. Pratise braking on ifferent kins of surfaes in an area free of traffi. Wet weather reues the braking power. tuate the brakes arefully when riing on wet or slippery groun, as the tyres an easily slip away. Therefore, reue your spee when riing in suh onitions. There are various types of brake systems that may be subjet to thollowing problems: Too long braking or brake ragging an result in an overheating of the rim brakes. This an amage the inner tube or make the tyre slip on the rim ausing a suen loss of air whih oul lea to a serious aient in the proess. With is brakes () prolonge braking or permanent ragging of brake pas an lea to an overheating of the brake system. This an result in a reution of the braking power or brakailure. Risk of aient! When riing ownhill, get use to braking har an then releasing the brake again, whenever the roa surfae an the situation allows for it. f you are in oubt about the braking ation, stop an let the brake system ool own.

The tyre is mounte onto the rim so that it enases the tube in the ase of the most ommon system, i.e. the linher or foling tyres. There is a rim tape running aroun the rim well (e) to protet the sensitive tube against the eges of the rim trough, whih are often sharp. CHN MNTENNCE lthough the hain is one of the wearing omponents of your SCOTT bike, there are still ways for you to prolong its life.

Try to only use gears whih run the hain in the straightest line between the sprokets an hainrings an get into the habit of high aene pealling. Chains on biyles with erailleur gears are worn out after approx. 1,000 to 3,500 km or 50 to 125 hours of use. Heavily strethe hains impair the operation of erailleur gears. Cyling with a worn-out hain also aelerates the wear of the sprokets an hainrings. nother system omprises the tubular tyres whih are glue on speifi rims. thir system omprises tubeless tyres whih also require speifi rims.

NOTES ON TYRES, NNER TUBES, RM TPE, NFLTON PRESSURE The tyres shoul provie grip an tration. t the same time they shoul run smooth an enhane the rier s omfort by absorbing small shoks. Both the rolling frition an the grip epen on the nature of the tyre arass, the rubber ompoun an the tyre trea. Your SCOTT ealer will be please to help you hoosrom the numerous types of tyres. f you want to mount a new tyre, you nee to observe the sizing system an the atual size of the ol tyre. The latter is speifie in two ifferent units on the sie of the tyre. One of the sizes is the stanarise size in millimetres whih is more preise, e.g. the number sequene means that the tyre is 23 mm wie when fully inflate an has an inner tyre iameter of 622 millimetres. The other size is iniate in inhes (e.g. 23x7/8 or 700x23) (a). Tyres must be inflate to the proper inflation pressure (b) to provie an optimal ompromise between smooth running an riing omfort. Properly inflate tyres are also more resistant to puntures. n insuffiiently inflate tyre an easily get pinhe ( snakebite ) when it goes over a sharp kerb. The air pressure reommene by the manufaturer is given on the tyre sie () or on the type label. The lower of the two pressure speifiations makes for better ushioning for lightweight riers an is therefore best for yling on a rough surfae. Rolling resistane on level groun ereases with growing pressure, but so oes omfort. Highly inflate tyres are therefore most suitablor heavy riers an for riing on tarre roas (). Therefore, ajust the pressure to your weight an your riing habits. Clinher an foling tyres an rim alone are not able to hol the air. Therefore, an inner tube has to be plae insie the tyre (f) to retain the air pressure. Rims of linher an foling tyres require in general a high-value rim tape over the omplete with of the rim base. This rim tape protets the inner tubrom the braking heat whih oul make the tyre burst. n the ase of tubular tyres that must be glue on the rim the tube is alreay integrate into the tyre an an be neither remove, nor pathe in the ase of a punture. This type of tyre requires speial rims without rim flanges. f neessary, rea the respetive manuals on this SCOTT info CD before working on suh kin of tyres. Tubeless tyres an only be use in ombination with speifially esigne wheels. Pay attention to the manufaturer s type esignations (e.g. 2way-fit / tubeless reay ). With reue pressure tubeless tyres an be use as linher tyres. The appropriate pressuror 75-kg / 165-lbs-ylists is usually 7 bar an for 65-kg / 143-lbs-ylists 6 bar. Make sure the pressure is not below 4.5 bar. Observe the marking on the tyre sies regaring the maximum pressure. Replae tyres with a worn trea or with brittle or fraye sies. Dampness an irt penetrating the tyre an ause amage to its inner struture. The tube might burst. Risk of falling! f you mount a new tyre with another size than the stanar tyre mounte, it might be possible that the learane between thront of your shoe an the wheel will be reue when you rie at reue spee. lso observe the spae between fork an frame. Risk of aient! nflation pressure is often given in the ol system of units, i.e. in psi (pouns per square inh).

Treat your tyres with are. lways rie your biyle with the presribe tyre pressure an hek the pressure at regular intervals, at least one a week. Riing with too low or too high air pressure may make the tyre ome off the rim or burst.

To remove the tubular push it a little to the sie of the rim at a plae opposite the valve until a gap appears an the tyre starts to ome off (e). f the tyre remains tight, stik a tyre lever into the gap an lift the tyre off the rim (f). Replaing an iniviual tube is impossible. nstea you have to mount a omplete tubular tyre. En route the tyre annot be glue an is onsequently not tight on the rim even when inflate. Therefore, be sure to rie bak very slowly an arefully by taking the shortest way possible. Bak home, you have to glue the tubular tyre, as esribe in the following. lso observe the instrutions of the tyre an rim manufaturers with regar to the proper glue an to possibly require speial measures. Some tyre manufaturers have poste vieos on the internet esribing the mounting of their prouts, e.g ENLSH OWNER S MNUL 2017 ROD BKE ENLSH 79

41 Tyre mounting To mount a tubular tyre properly so that it urably stays in plae you shoul take your time an proee stepwise. Some pratie an experiene with the tyre ahesive use an the relevant moel of tubular tyre an spee up the work. n general, mounting tubular tyres is a job for your SCOTT ealer. Rea the mounting instrutions of the tyre manufaturer before you start mounting. Tubular tyres an be glue either with liqui tyre glue or with ahesive tapes (a). One avantage of using tape is that it an be onairly quikly. However, this may not always give a suffiiently firm bon of the tyre on the rim. f you have a punture while out riing, the tape often remains on the tyre that has been remove an the reserve tyre no longer seats properly on the rim. For that reason we reommen a soli be mae up of several layers of liqui rim ement (tyre ahesive). lue not only gives a firmer bon, it usually also remains on the rim when ismounting the tyre. However, bak home again you shoul remove the spare tyre nevertheless. The existing be an the tyre (b) are then treate with rim ement one again an the tyre is mounte again to ensure that it seats properly. f you have wheels with very high rims, uno the valve insert with the speial mounting tool before thirst mounting an take it out of the valve, an install a valve extension in its plae (). Srew the valve insert bak into the lengthene valve. Now you an inflate an eflate the mounte tyre via the extene valve in the usual way. nflate the tyre to a point where it starts to beome roun an then stik the valve through the hole in the rim. Starting from the valve an working in both iretions press the tyre into the rim all the way roun. f you are unable to mount it ompletely on the rim or if this woul require exessivore, leave off trying, sine it might not work with fore alone. fter mounting the tubular tyre, spin the wheel an see whether the tyre runs true. The area where the valve omes out of the tyre is often thikene whih leas to a vertial runout of the rim an makes the wheel jolt uring the rie. Remove the burrs from the valve hole of an aluminium rim or ountersink it with ig rill (), a triangular sraper or a roun file. f you have arbon rims, be areful when removing the burrs from the hole ege with a roun file. nsert thile only from the outsie to the insie an not vie versa, otherwise thibres of the syntheti matrix might fray out. Seal the area with instant glue subsequently. This pretreatment will lea to an improve valve fitting to the rim. f time permits, you an leave the unglue tyre inflate on the rim for a few ays to make thinal mounting easier. Subsequently, lean the base of the rim from grease or oil by using a rag soake with aetone, spirit or benzine (e). Wait for the solvent to evaporate ompletely before you start to glue the tyre onto the rim. luing the tyre (f) is easiest with the wheel lampe in a truing stan or mounte on an ol fork lampe in a vie. With liqui tyre glue you will nee several layers to reate a goo ahesive be.

When in oubt, it is always the better hoior your safety to have these parts replae. sk your SCOTT ealer for avie. f your SCOTT bike is assemble with arbon omponents, it is imperative that you have it heke by your SCOTT ealer after an aient or similar inient. Carbon is extremely strong an urable with very low weight, making it perfet for the proution of high-performane parts. However, one of the inherent properties of arbon is that possible overstress may ompromise the inner arbon fibre struture without showing any visible eformation, as is the ase with steel or aluminium. amage omponent an fail without previous warning. Risk of falling! CUTON! Make it a rule to hek thuntioning an in partiular the limit stop of the rear erailleur after a fall or if your SCOTT bike has topple over. CRBON PRTCULR MTERL Speial harateristis of omponents mae of arbon-fibre reinfore plastis, also referre to as arbon or CRP, nee to be taken into aount. Carbon (a) is an extremely strong material whih ombines high resistane with low weight. fter overstress, however, arbon omponents (b), unlike metal parts, o not neessarily show urable or visible eformation even though some of thibres may be amage. t is very angerous to ontinue using the arbon omponent after an impat or unue stress, as it may fail without previous warning thereby ausing an aient with unforeseeable onsequenes. For this reason we reommen that you have the omponent, or to be ertain, the entire SCOTT bike () heke by your SCOTT ealer after every inient, suh as e.g. a fall. Damage omponents must be replae at one! Prevent further use by taking appropriate measures, i.e. saw the omponent into piees. Damage arbon frames an possibly be repaire. Contat your SCOTT ealer. Carbon omponents must not be expose to exessive heat. Therefore, never have a arbon omponent enamelle or power-oate. The temperatures require for enamelling or power-oating oul estroy the omponent. Do not leave arbon fibre omponents near a soure of heat or in your ar uring hot or sunny weather. n aition, arbon is sensitive to pressure. Therefore, o not mount your SCOTT frame on a mounting arrier with inappropriate lamps (). Carbon omponents have, like all lightweight bike omponents, a limite servie life. For this reason, have the stem an the hanlebars heke at regular intervals (e.g. every three years), even if they have not experiene any unue stress, suh as an aient. When you inten to transport your SCOTT bike in the boot of your ar, be sure to protet the bike or the arbon frame an omponents. Blankets (e), foam tubes or the like are a suitable paing to protet the sensitive material from amage. Do not plae any bags on your SCOTT bike lying in your ar. lways park your SCOTT bike arefully (f) an make sure it oes not topple over. Carbon frames an omponents may alreay sustain amage by simply toppling over an thereby hitting e.g. a sharp ege. f arbon omponents on your SCOTT bike proue any reaking or raking noises or show any external sign of amage, suh as gouges, raks, ents, isolorations et., o not use the SCOTT bike any longer.

46 Do not ombine arbon hanlebars with bar ens, unless they have been speifially approve. Do not shorten arbon hanlebars or lamp the brake levers an shifters more in the mile than iniate or neee. Risk of breakage! Make sure all arbon lamping areas are absolutely free of grease an other lubriants! rease will penetrate the surfae of the arbon material, thereby reuing the oeffiient of frition. This will no longer provie reliable lamping within the presribe torque values. One grease, arbon omponents may never again ensure reliable lamping! Use a speial arbon assembly paste (a) instea as offere by various manufaturers. CUTON! Most lamps of bike arrier systems are potential soures of amage to large-iameter frame tubes! s a result thereof arbon frames an fail uring use without previous warning. However, there are speial-purpose moels whih are suitable, available in the ar aessory trae. nform yourself there or ask your SCOTT ealer for avie. CUTON! Do not lamp a arbon frame or seat post in the holing jaws of a workstan (b)! The omponents may sustain amage. Mount a stury (aluminium) seat post instea an use it to lamp thrame, or hoose a work stan that hols thrame at three points insie thrame triangle or whih lamps the fork an bottom braket shell. Protet the expose areas of your arbon frame (e.g. the hea tube an the unersie of the own tube) against rubbing ables or stone hips with speial pas (+) your SCOTT ealer keeps for sale. Carbon fibre omponents are partiularly vulnerable to amage ause by exessive lamping fore. Carbon assembly paste reates extra frition between two surfaes, allowing the neessary torque value to be reue by up to 30 % (a). This is espeially useful in the lamping areas of hanlebars an stem, steerer tube an stem as well as seat post, i.e. three areas where too muh lamping fore an amage either omponent, ausing omponent failure or voiing the warranty. By reuing the lamping fore, arbon assembly paste relieves stress on sensitive arbon surfaes, preventing amage to fibres or the raking of the arbon substruture. THE HEDSET ON THE SCOTT BKE The heaset (e) onnets thork to thrame, but allows it to movreely. t must turn with virtually no resistane, if the SCOTT bike is to run straight, stabilising itself as it travels. Shoks ause by uneven roa surfaes expose the heaset to onsierable levels of stress. n this way it an beome loose an go out of orret ajustment. Riing the biyle with a loose heaset inreases the stress on fork an bearings. This an lea to amage to thork. Risk of falling! Cheking an reajusting Chek the heaset for play by plaing your fingers aroun the upper hea tube rae. Bring your weight to bear on the sale, pull thront brakes with your other han an push the SCOTT bikirmly bak an forth with the wheel remaining on the groun (f). f the bearing has play, you will feel the upper hea tube rae moving in jerks relative to the lower hea tube rae - visible as a small gap in between the hea tube raes. 90 ENLSH OWNER S MNUL 2017 ROD BKE ENLSH 91

THREDLESS HEDSET HEDSET The istint feature of this system is that the stem oes not sit within thork steerer tube, but rather slips over thork steerer tube, whih in this ase is threaless. The stem is thus an important part of the heaset, as the stem lamping fixes the ajustment. You generally only nee one or two llen keys an a torque wrenh to ajust an heaset. Release the lamping bolt(s) loate on the sie of the stem by one to two turns (b). ently tighten the ountersunk ajusting bolt on top a little, e.g. by a quarter turn (), using an llen key. Realign the stem to ensure that the hanlebars are at right angle to the wheel. Make sure thront wheel is in line with the top tube an the stem. Tighten the lamping bolts of the stem. Use a torque wrenh an never exee the maximum torque values! You will fin the presribe values in the hapter Reommene torque settings for your SCOTT bike, iretly on the omponents an/ or in the manuals of the omponent manufaturers on this SCOTT info CD.

ENERL NOTES ON CRE ND SERVCN MNTENNCE ND SERVCN YOUR SCOTT BKE Your SCOTT ealer will have assemble an ajuste your SCOTT bike reay for use when you ome to ollet it. Nevertheless, your SCOTT bike nees regular serviing (a). Have your loal SCOTT ealer o the sheule maintenane work. This is the only way to ensure that all omponents funtion safely an reliably for many kilometres. The bike will be uor its first servie after 100 to 300 kilometres, 5 to 15 hours of initial use or four to six weeks, at the latest however after three months. The being-in phase typially involves spokes slightly losing tension or gears oming out of ajustment (b), so there is every reason to have your SCOTT ealer servie the SCOTT bike at this stage. This being-in proess is unavoiable. Therefore, remember to make an appointment with your SCOTT ealer to have your new SCOTT bike inspete. This first servie is very important for both funtioning an urability of your SCOTT bike. t is avisable to have your SCOTT bike servie regularly by your SCOTT ealer after the being-in phase, i.e. aoring to the SCOTT servie an maintenane sheule. f you rie a great eal on poor roa surfaes or off-roa, it will require orresponingly shorter servie perios (see SCOTT servie plan). The off-season uring the winter months is a very goo time to take your SCOTT bike to your SCOTT ealer for the annual inspetion, as they will have plenty of timor you an for serviing your SCOTT bike. The intene use of your SCOTT bike inlues regular serviing an the replaement of worn out parts in time, e.g. hains, brake pas () or bowen an brake ables (). This will ensure the safuntioning an therefore has an influene on the liability for material efets an the warranty. For more information see the hapter SCOTT servie an maintenane sheule an the manuals of the omponent manufaturers on this SCOTT info CD. Serviing an repairs are jobs best left to your SCOTT ealer. f you have your bike servie by anyone else than an expert, you run the risk that parts of your SCOTT bike will fail. Risk of aient! When working on your SCOTT bike restrit yourself to jobs for whih you have the suitable tools, e.g. a torque wrenh, an the neessary knowlege. f a omponent nees to be replae, make it a rule to only use original spare parts (e). Wearing parts of other manufaturers, e.g. brake pas or tyres that are not of iential imension, may rener your SCOTT bike unsafe. Risk of aient! CLENN ND CRN FOR YOUR SCOTT BKE Drie sweat, irt an salt from riing uring the winter or in sea air an harm your SCOTT bike. You shoul therefore make it a habit of leaning all omponents at regular intervals (f). voi leaning your bike with a high-pressure leaner. The high-pressure jet is likely to enter bearings by passing through the seals an ilute the lubriants hereby inreasing thrition. This estroys an impairs thuntioning of the bearing raes in the long term. High-pressure jets are also likely to remove frame an rim stikers. muh more gentle way of leaning your bike is with a low-pressure water jet or uket of water an a sponge or a large brush. Cleaning your bike by han has another positive sie-effet: You may isover efets in the paint as well as worn or efetive omponents at an early stage. 104 ENLSH OWNER S MNUL 2017 ROD BKE ENLSH 105

54 fter leaning an rying (a) hek the hain for wear (b) an relubriate () (see the hapter Biyle hain an the manuals of the omponent manufaturers on this SCOTT info CD). pply a oat of stanar har wax () on painte, metal an arbon surfaes (exept from brake surfaes an brake iss). Polish the waxe surfaes after rying to give them a nie shine. Keep leaning agents an hain oil lear of the brake pas, brake iss an rim sies (braking surfaes). Otherwise the brake oul fail. Never grease or lubriate the lamping areas of a frame mae of arbon, e.g. hanlebars, stem, seat post an seat tube. One grease, arbon omponents may never again ensure reliable lamping! While leaning, wath out for raks, srathes, ents as well as eforme or isoloure material. Have efetive omponents replae immeiately an touh up paint efets. f you are in oubt or if you have any questions, ontat your SCOTT ealer. CUTON! Do not lean your SCOTT bike with a high-pressure leaner or a water jet an if you o, be sure to keep it at a istane. Do not aim at the bearings. CUTON! Only use petroleum-base solvents for leaning tough oil or grease stains from paint an arbon surfaes. Never use egreasing agents ontaining aetone, methyl hlorie or the like, or solvent-ontaining, non-neutral or hemial leaning agents that oul attak the surfae! SHELTERN ND STORN YOUR SCOTT BKE f you regularly look after your SCOTT bike uring the season, you will not nee to take any speial measures when storing it for a short time, apart from seuring it against theft. Store your bike in a ry, well aerate plae. f you want to store your SCOTT bikor a longer perio of time, e.g. over the winter months, please observe thollowing things: nflate inner tubes ten to graually lose air when the bike is not usor a long time. f your SCOTT bike is left staning on flat tyres for an extene perio, this an ause amage to the struture of the tyres. t is therefore better to hang the wheels or the entire SCOTT bike (e) or to hek the tyre pressure regularly (f). Clean your SCOTT bike an protet it against orrosion. Your SCOTT ealer offers a variety of are prouts, suh as spray wax et. Dismount the seat post an let ry away possibly penetrate humiity. Spray a littlinely atomize oil into the metal seat tube. However, o not apply oil in a arbon seat tube. Shift the gear to the smallest hainring an the smallest sproket. This relaxes the ables an the springs. a CUTON! Do not hang your SCOTT bike on arbon rims. Mount instea at least one aluminium wheel. There are harly any waiting times at your SCOTT ealer uring the winter months. n aition, many SCOTT ealers offer an annual hek-up at a speial prie. Benefit from the ile time an ask your SCOTT ealer to o the sheule maintenane work! 106 ENLSH OWNER S MNUL 2017 ROD BKE ENLSH 107
