REAR HUB (QR SYSTEM)
Insert two allen wrentch 5mm (A) in the extremity of the hubs, and turn
them counterclockwise. (Pic. 5)
• Once you take out the pin from hub' s body, the free wheel body (E)
stays attached with his pawls (Pic. 5).
• Clean carefully the pawls then put some low-density grease.
• Re-fit the axel (C) inside hub body with the spacer (Z) (Pic.6).
• Take care to position of the pawls. Lock with power the mobile side
with a torque of 15 Nm (Pic. 7), if necessary adjust the hub by working
on the ring (H) (Pic. 7):
• Unlock the grub screw (I) with a allen wrentch 2mm (L) (Pic. 6).
• Turn the ring clockwise to drop the sliding, and counterclockwise 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.

CHANGE A SPOKE
Warning
!
If you have any doubt whatsoever your service-repair ability,
please take your bicycle to a qualified repair shop.
Before any maintenance operations on your wheels, always wear
gloves and protection glasses.
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.
To replace a spoke on the XM 45 is extremely easy in both cases, front
as well as rear wheels.
• Unscrew the spoke from the nipples with the corresponding spanner.
• Once it has been unscrewed, slide off the spoke from its own seat.
Before replacing the spoke, draw the spoke to be used for the replace-
ment in the thread-locker you chose to improve sealing.
To ensure the correct spoke tension please follow the indications be-
low:
Rear wheel Front wheel
264 mm 266 mm
266 mm 264 mm
276 mm 278 mm
278 mm 276 mm
295 mm 297 mm
297 mm 295 mm
• Correct spoke tension for front wheel 1100N
• Correct spoke tension for rear wheel, free wheel side 1300N
• Correct spoke tension for rear wheel, opposite free wheel side 900N
To evaluate the correct wheel tension, please use a professional spoke
tension gauge, we do not recommend that spoke tension is estimated
manually; please refer to a professional cycle mecha-nic if you do not
own a professional spoke tension gauge. The correct spoke tension is
essential to ensure a ridged and durable wheelset.
ATTENTION in correct spoke tension, too high or too low, could lead
to wheel failure and resulting serious or fatal accident.
QUICK RELEASE
4
The XM 45 wheels quick release has already attached in the wheel
pack.
The quick release lever has two fixed positions:
• OPEN (the text OPEN is visible)
• CLOSED (the text CLOSED is visible)
Every time you will use your bicycle, check carefully that the quick
release levers are on the position CLOSE (with the lever in closed po-
sition, on the front side of the quick release the mark CLOSE must be
present) (Pic.11).
Warning
!
Please ensure the quick release lever is closed correctly and in the
correct position. Failure to do so could lead to wheel failure and
resulting serious or fatal accident.
All the positions different from the closed position have to be conside-
red extremely dangerous.
For the correct closing of the quick release:
• Starting from the opened position of the lever, making the nut con-
tact with the fork manually
• Bringing the lever from the opened position to the closed only with
the hand power (Pic.12)
• Turn manually with your fingers the quick release nut until its sits
against the cycle dropout, ensuring the quick release lever is sitting
in the "open position" (Pic. 12)
• Don't use any tools (ex: tubes, extensions, ...); the closing stress
has to be felt in the passage from the opened to the closed position
(Pic.12).
• You never have to use the quick release lever as a nut to close the
quick release, because it will injury the quick release (Pic.13).
ATTENTION, turning the quick release lever to tighten the quick
release could result in damage to the quick release and cycle
frame dropout, which could lead to wheel failure and resulting
serious or fatal accident.
• Given that the wheels will be used on irregular surfaces, impacts,
hits or a fall can cause also damage which cannot be visible with
fast locking. If one of these conditions is detected, please visit a
qualified mechanic or special personnel for an accurate inspec-
tion of the locking, since its damage may cause accidents, and
serious or fatal injuries.
• After every washing, remove the locking from the hub and grease
the pin completely to prevent oxidation.
