Specialized Roubaix Comp Road Manual De Instrucciones página 26

(1) If your bike has cam action front wheel retention, move the cam lever so
that it curves away from the wheel (fig. 8b). This is the OPEN position. If your
bike has through bolt or bolt-on front wheel retention, go to the next step.
(2) With the steering fork facing forward, insert the wheel between the fork
blades so that the axle seats firmly at the top of the fork dropouts. The cam
lever, if there is one, should be on rider's left side of the bicycle (fig. 8a & b). If
your bike has a clip-on type secondary retention device, engage it.
(3) If you have a traditional cam action mechanism: holding the cam lever in
the ADJUST position with your right hand, tighten the tension adjusting nut with
your left hand until it is finger tight against the fork dropout (fig. 8a). If you have
a cam-and-cup system: the nut and cup (fig. 8b) will have snapped into the
recessed area of the fork dropouts and no adjustment should be required.
(4) While pushing the wheel firmly to the top of the slots in the fork dropouts,
and at the same time centering the wheel rim in the fork:
(a) With a cam action system, move the cam lever upwards and swing it
into the CLOSED position (fig. 8a & b). The lever should now be parallel to the
fork blade and curved toward the wheel. To apply enough clamping force, you
should have to wrap your fingers around the fork blade for leverage, and the
lever should leave a clear imprint in the palm of your hand.
(b) With a through-bolt or bolt-on system, tighten the fasteners to the torque
specifications in Appendix D or the hub manufacturer's instructions.
NOTE: If, on a traditional cam action system, the lever cannot be pushed all
the way to a position parallel to the fork blade, return the lever to the OPEN
position. Then turn the tension adjusting nut counterclockwise one-quarter
turn and try tightening the lever again.
WARNING: Securely clamping the wheel with a cam action
retention device takes considerable force. If you can fully close the
cam lever without wrapping your fingers around the fork blade for
leverage, the lever does not leave a clear imprint in the palm of
your hand, and the serrations on the wheel fastener do not emboss
the surfaces of the dropouts, the tension is insufficient. Open the
lever; turn the tension adjusting nut clockwise a quarter turn; then
try again. See also the first WARNING in this Section, p. 18.
(5) If you disengaged the brake quick-release mechanism in 3. a. (1) above,
re-engage it to restore correct brake pad-to-rim clearance.
(6) Spin the wheel to make sure that it is centered in the frame and clears the
brake pads; then squeeze the brake lever and make sure that the brakes are
operating correctly.
c. Removing a disk brake or rim brake Rear Wheel
(1) If you have a multi-speed bike with a derailleur gear system: shift the rear
derailleur to high gear (the smallest, outermost rear sprocket).
If you have an internal gear rear hub, consult your dealer or the hub
manufacturer's instructions before attempting to remove the rear wheel.
If you have a single-speed bike with rim or disk brake, go to step (4) below.
