Use only spokes of the same length and characteristics of
those being replaced. Use original spare parts exclusively
provided by Fac Michelin S.r.l.
FRONT HUB
To replace a spoke on disc side is extremely easy, slide off the
spoke from its own seat and insert the new spoke.
To replace spoke on opposite side of disc:
• Remove the contact item (A) (Fig. 1)
• On the same side from which you removed the contact item,
insert a 12mm Allen wrench (M) on the hub pin and, using
a classic 17mm wrench (N), unscrew the contact item (B)
counterclockwise (Fig. 7)
• U nscrew the spoke from the nipples with the appropriate
wrench.
• O nce unscrewed, remove the spoke from its seat (Pic. 7).
• I nsert the new spoke
• Screw the nipples with the relative washer. To avoid the tor-
sion effect, hold the spoke.
To solidify the coupling between spoke and nipple, use a me-
dium thread braking.
• I nsert the pin (C) and tighten the spoke (B) with the 17mm
wrench (N) at the torque of 15Nm (Fig. 2)
If necessary adjust the hub by working on the ring (H) (Pic. 2):
• Unlock the grub screw (I) with a allen wrentch 2mm (L) (Pic.
2).
• Turn the ring in clockwise to drop the sliding, and in counter-
clockwise to rise the sliding
• Lock the grub screw (I).
• Check the sliding of the wheel.
Please check that the hub is correctly tightened and closed,
failure to do so could lead to a serious or fatal accident.
REAR HUB
To replace a spoke is extremely easy (Pic. 8)
• Unscrew the spoke from the nipples with the corresponding
spanner.
• O nce it has been unscrewed, slide off the spoke from its own
seat.
• I nsert the new spoke
• Screw nipple with washer
Draw the spoke to be used for the replacement in the thread-
locker you chose to improve sealing.
To ensure the correct spoke tension please follow the indi-
cations below:
• Correct spoke tension for front wheel (disc side) 1200N
• Correct spoke tension for rear wheel, free wheel side
1400N
To evaluate the correct wheel tension, please use a profes-
sional spoke tension gauge, we do not recommend that spoke
tension is estimated manually; please refer to a professional
cycle mechanic if you do not own a professional spoke tension
gauge. The correct spoke tension is essential to ensure a rid-
ged and durable wheelset.
ATTENTION in correct spoke tension, too high or too low,
could lead to wheel failure and resulting serious or fatal
accident.
COMPLETE WHEELS

SWR RC DX wheels are designed to fit clincher tires. Miche
wheels are designs for use solely on the road or dedicated
cycle track with a smooth surface. Please ensure that the whe-
els are not subject to direct shock from poor road surfaces
[i.e. pot holes]. ATTENTION direct shock to the wheels from
poor road surfaces could lead to wheel failure and resulting
serious or fatal accident. In the event your wheels are subject
to any such shocks from poor road surfaces, yet do show the
signs of any damage we advise you to immediately have the
wheels checked by a qualified mechanic or other qualified
person.
If your wheel set is already prepared for fitting the Tubeless
Ready tire, in sections 5, 6 and 7 you will find useful infor-
mation on how to fit Tubeless Ready tires.
