Product Usage Instructions – RaceFaceTM Cranks:
- Remove the crankset from the bike.
- Unscrew the existing preload screw and remove the existing
RaceFaceTM preload assembly. - Using only the Spacer Ring of the Cane Creek preload assembly,
install it completely onto the spindle of the crank so that no
preload is applied. - Reinstall the crankset onto the bike and adjust the preload as
necessary. - Fasten the 2.5mm bolt to 1.4Nm (12.4in-lb) on the Cane Creek
preload assembly to complete the installation.
Product Usage Instructions – SRAM Cranks:
- Remove the crankset from the bike.
- Completely remove the existing SRAMTM preload assembly, both
the male and female thread portion. - Apply a strip of super glue to the part of the spindle where
the Thread Ring of the Cane Creek preload will be located. The
super glue should bond the Thread Ring to the spindle, not to the
threads of the Thread Ring. - Twist the Thread Ring around the spindle to spread the super
glue evenly between the spindle and the Thread Ring. - Once the super glue is dried, install the Spacer Ring
completely onto the spindle of the crank so that no preload is
applied. - Reinstall the crankset onto the bike and adjust preload as
necessary. - Fasten the 2.5mm bolt to 1.4Nm (12.4in-lb) on the Cane Creek
preload assembly to complete the installation.
