WARNING! Do not extend the seat post beyond the minimum insertion line marked on the seat post, or the minimum seat post insertion required by the frame (see page 7). Extension beyond the minimum insertion line can result in failure, causing serious injury or death.

Your Specialized frame does not require any Bottom Bracket or Head Tube pre-installation preparation. All surfaces are already prepared from the factory, with the exception of greasing the bottom bracket threads and head set cups. It is acceptable to chase the bottom bracket threads if necessary. Do not face bottom bracket cups.

BOTTOM BRACKET

Ensure that the Bottom Bracket shell threads are clean and greased prior to installation. Recommended torque is 442 in-lbf (50 N-m). Do

not exceed maximum torque of 670 in-lbf (70 N-m).

HEADSET INSTALLATION / REMOVAL

Specialized recommends that the headset cup/bearings be pressed in using a Specialized Integrated Headset Press Tool. This tool is compatible with Park Headset Presses and ensures that the required pressure to install the cups is applied only to the outer sur- face of the cups, to prevent damage to the bearing. Grease cups prior to installation.

Note: Use only Specialized Mindset bearing/cups. These bearings are specially designed to fit Specialized Integrated Headset frames.

Removal of the headset bearings is the same as standard headset cups. Use a standard headset cup removal tool. Make sure the tool is evenly engaging the cup before removal. Be sure not to place the headset removal tool against the alloy frame inserts (cup interfaces), as they’re bonded into the frame.

COMPONENT TORQUE SETTINGS

Front derailleur: Recommended torque is 44 in-lbf (5 N-m). Do not exceed maximum torque of 60 in-lbf (7 N-m).

Rear derailleur: Recommended torque for the rear derailleur is 70 in-lbf (8 N-m). Do not exceed maximum torque of 87 in-lbf (10 N-m). Ensure that the threads are clean prior to installation.

Water Bottle Cage: Recommended torque is 35 in-lbf (3.9 N-m). Do not exceed maximum torque of 40 in-lbf (4.5 N-m).

WARNING! Great care should be taken to not damage carbon fiber or composite materials, including the frame and any carbon fiber or composite components. Any damage may result in a loss of structural integrity, which may result in a catastrophic failure. This damage may or may not be visible in inspection. Before each ride, and after any crash, you should carefully inspect your bicycle for any dents, fraying, gouging, scratches through the paint, chipping bending, or any other signs of damage. Do not ride if your bicycle shows any of these signs. After any crash, and before you ride any further, take your bicycle to an authorized Specialized retailer for a complete inspection.

Home Gym specifications

In recent years, the concept of a specialized home gym has transformed from a luxury to a necessity for fitness enthusiasts. With the increasing demand for workout convenience, specialized home gyms are designed to offer a comprehensive exercise experience tailored to individual preferences and lifestyle. One of the main features of a specialized home gym is its versatility. Many setups include various fitness equipment such as resistance bands, free weights, stationary bikes, and multi-functional machines that cater to different training needs. This allows users to engage in strength training, cardio workouts, and flexibility exercises, all within the confines of their home.

Another important characteristic is the incorporation of advanced technologies. With the rise of smart fitness equipment, specialized home gyms often come equipped with interactive screens and connected devices. These technological features allow users to access a wide array of virtual training classes, track their progress, and receive real-time feedback. Wearable technology such as smartwatches and heart rate monitors can synchronize with the gym equipment, giving users valuable insights into their performance and health metrics.

Customization is also a key feature of specialized home gyms. Users can design their workout spaces to suit their personal style and functional needs. From adjustable weight benches to multi-station machines, the flexibility to choose configurations ensures that users can optimize their workout experience. Additionally, specialized home gyms often prioritize space-saving designs and ergonomic arrangements, making them functional even in smaller living spaces.

Aesthetic appeal is another characteristic that modern specialized home gyms emphasize. Many homeowners look for sleek and stylish designs that seamlessly integrate into their home decor. This includes options for different color schemes and finishes, ensuring that the gym space serves as an attractive area for exercise rather than an eyesore.

In conclusion, specialized home gyms provide a tailored and immersive fitness experience. With features ranging from versatile equipment and advanced technology to customization options and aesthetic appeal, they cater to a growing market of individuals seeking convenience and effectiveness in their workouts. As fitness continues to evolve, specialized home gyms represent the ideal solution for those looking to maintain an active lifestyle without leaving the comfort of home.
