WARNING!  Do  not  extend  seatpost  above  the  minimum  insertion  line.  Extension 

beyond  the  minimum  insertion  line  can  result  in  failure,  causing  serious  injury  or 

death.

WARNING! Do not pull down on down tube derailleur cables to pre-stress the cables. 

This can cause damage to the cable guides.

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

Threaded 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).

Oversized Bottom Bracket:

 Please refer to the carbon crank installation guide for 

assembly instructions and compatible tools

Standard compatible top and 1.5” (52mm x 7mm x 45°) bottom bearing. Ensure that 

replacement bearings are compatible with the Specialized headset specification. No tools 

are needed for installation or removal of both bearings.

 Grease bearing surfaces before 

installation.

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.
