Important Composites
Message
WARNING
Your bike (frame and components) is made from
composite materials also known as “carbon
fiber.”
All riders must understand a fundamental reality
of composites. Composite materials constructed
of carbon fibers are strong and light, but when
crashed or overloaded, carbon fibers do not bend,
they break.
For your safety, as you own and use the bike,
you must follow proper service, maintenance,
and inspection of all the composites (frame,
stem, fork, handlebar, seat post, etc.) Ask your
Cannondale Dealer for help.
We urge you to read PART II, Section D. “Inspect
For Safety” in your Cannondale Bicycle Owner’s
Manual BEFORE you ride.
YOU CAN BE SEVERELY INJURED, PARALYZED
OR KILLED IN AN ACCIDENT IF YOU IGNORE
THIS MESSAGE.
Inspection & Crash Damage
Of Carbon Frames/Forks
WARNING
AFTER A CRASH OR IMPACT:
Inspect frame carefully for damage (See PART II,
Section D. Inspect For Safety in your Cannondale
Bicycle Owner’s Manual. )
Do not ride your bike if you see any sign
of damage, such as broken, splintered, or
delaminated carbon fiber.
ANY OF THE FOLLOWING MAY INDICATE A
DELAMINATION OR DAMAGE:
■ An unusual or strange feel to the frame
■Carbon which has a soft feel or altered shape
■Creaking or other unexplained noises,
■Visible cracks, a white or milky color present
in carbon fiber section
CONTINUING TO RIDE A DAMAGED FRAME

JEKYLL FRAMES
BallisTec Carbon Technology
Light, sti and ultra-tough carbon fiber construction.
New, High-Strength, High-Impact Carbon construction. Ultra high-strength fibers developed by the Japanese
Military for ballistic armor, and impact-resistant hot melt resins are used as the primary structural materials
of the frame, while high modulus carbon fibers are used to strategically enhance stiness. Lighter and stier
than aluminum, stronger and more durable than steel, BallisTec Carbon can shake o rock strikes and impacts
that would cripple the competition and their carbon “shields”.
SmartFormed Alloy
The alloy versions use SmartFormed, septuple-butted, heat-treated 6000 series aluminum. The down tube
alone has seven dierent wall thicknesses, created by butting the tube along its length, then mechanically
shaping the tube, then hydro forming it into the final shape. Labor intensive and dicult, it shows
Cannondale’s continued mastery of the aluminum arts.

KEY INFORMATION
A special service tool KP169/ contains parts
necessary to service the assembly. The parts of this
tool are shown shaded above.
When connecting the seatstays to the dropouts,
always insert the small end of pivot spacers into the
dropout bearings .The flat side of the spacers should
face out, as shown.
When tightening the axles, insert the 5mm hex
key completely into the axle to prevent damage
when turning the bolt. Always tighten with a torque
wrench to the specified torque.
MAINTENANCE
The condition of the bearings, pivot axles, and
spacers should be inspected periodically. These are
normal wear parts so plan to have them renewed as
they wear-out.
Inspection frequency should be based upon how
and where you ride. Evidence of damage would be
excessive play, visisble wear, or perhaps corrosion of
bearings.
If you find any damage to the parts, discontinue
riding until all the parts (bearings, pivot axles,
spacers) can be renewed. This will help prevent
damage elsewhere.
See the kits list in the back of this supplement for
renewal kits.

Check for sufficient housing cable loop. Its about 35mm as shown above. Inadequate loop can result in ghost shifting or housing ends
pulling out of down tube when the bike is at full travel. Its best to determine housing lengths with the shock out of the bike.That way
you can move the swing arm through the travel and actually see what the cable housing is doing. It always looks like there is too much
cable housing when set up properly. Photo shows crossing housing to prevent the rear derailleur housing contacting the chainring. Or a
cable tie can be used. Be sure to install nose end seals and rubber seal at the housing ends as shown.

Bearing Maintenance
Inspect bearing condition annually (at a minimum) and anytime the crankset assembly is disassembled
or serviced. With the crankset removed, rotate the inner bearing race of both bearings; rotation should be
smooth. No play or movement inside the shell. If the bearing is damaged, replace both bearings with new
ones.
Bearing Removal/Installation (Professional Bike Mechanic Only)
Remove the old bearings with the bearing removal tool KT011/.
Reinstall bearings with a headset press and tool KT010/. Clean inside of shell apply a high-quality bicycle
bearing grease to the inside surface. Press bearing one at a time. Press each bearing until seated against the
circlip. Following installation, apply a light coating of a high-quality bicycle bearing grease to both sides of
each bearing to help repel moisture.
TIP: Unless a circlip is damaged, removal is unnecessary during bearing removal. Use a small thin-blade screw
driver or pick to lift the hooked end up out of the groove and then pushing the circlip out counter-clockwise.
Adapter Removal/Installation (Professional Bike Mechanic Only)
To install, first remove the bearings and circlips and clean the inside of the BB shell and adapter. Use a clean
lint-free shop towel dampened with alcohol. Apply Loctite™ 609 carefully to the bearing seat positions to
both shell and adapter. Install the adapter with a headset press and the installation tool KF368/. Adapter
groove must be located on the BB drive side. Press until the groove side face is flush with the drive side face
of shell. Allow at least 12 hours (at 72°F) for the Loctite to cure before installing the standard bottom bracket
crankset. Follow Loctite Technical Data Sheet http://tds.loctite.com/tds5/docs/609-EN.PDF
To remove, use tool KF366/ with a headset bearing press with tool arrangement as shown. Following
removal, it will be necessary to clean all remaining Loctite residue with a before reinstalling the Si circlips and
bearings. Use Loctite 768. Use a dental pick to remove any adhesive from the grooves. For Loctite clean-up
instructions: http://tds.loctite.com/
NOTICE
BEARINGS - Frequent or routine renewal of undamaged bearings is not recommended. Repeated removal
and reinstallation can damage the inside BB shell surfaces resulting in poor bearing fit. Do not face, mill
or machine the bottom bracket shell for any reason. Doing so can result in serious damage and possibly a
ruined bike frame.
ADAPTERS - Use only adapters/tool recommended by Cannondale. Other available adapters /tools may
cause damage. See Replacement Parts. An adapter isn’t a “repair” part, so the BB shell must be in
good condition. Repeated removal and reinstallation of an adapter, or improper tools can cause damage.
Therefore it is not recommended.
Loctite 609 - Prolonged contact with the frame finish may result in discoloration or damage. Be sure to
immediately wipe up any spills and remove any compound in contact with the painted surfaces.
Do not cut, face, or use abrasives to clean the inside if the BB shell.
We strongly recommend that these procedures be performed by an Authorized Cannondale Dealer.
Damage caused by improper installation/removal is not covered under your warranty.

WARNING
USE ONLY HIGH-PRESSURE AIR PUMP – CANNONDALE – 1MP01/SLV TO SET OR READ PRESSURE. Use of an incompatible pump
(one not designed for the high pressure range of the shock) , can result serious personal injury or result in an improper pressure setting
or reading which can contribute to a loss of rider control and accident.
SETTING PRESSURE
1. Set the shock in full travel mode.
2 Release negative air pressure.
3. Set positive pressure based on chart.
4. Set negative pressure based on chart.
5. Set FLOW and ELEVATE rebound adjusters based on
chart.
6. Check sag. If you want more sag (softer), drop one
weight range on the chart. If you want more sag
(firmer), go up one weight range on the chart. and
repeat steps 1-5.
SETTING SAG
1. Slide the small O-ring up against the stop.
2 Sit on the bike in a riding position.
3. Dismount and inspect the O-ring position on the sag
indicator. The center marking between is the 35% sag
area.

SETTING REBOUND
Rebound controls the rate at which your rear wheel returns after it has been compressed. The proper rebound
setting is of personal preference, and varies with rider weight, riding style and conditions. A basic rule of
thumb is to set rebound to be as quick as possible, without kicking back and pushing you o the saddle.
To set rebound :
1. The rebound circuits work independently. Make sure the remote travel lever is set to the travel mode
you’re setting. See Setting Travel.
2. Turn the selected rebound knob clockwise until it stops. Turn it couter-clockwise; counting each click.
A good starting point to begin adjustments is 7 clicks out from closed. Each rebound dial has about 13
clicks of adjustment range.
ELEVATE 95 mm FLOW 160 mm
NOTICE
Do not force rebound dial past stop point.
WARNING
KEEP HANDS AND FINGERS AWAY FROM MOVING LINKAGE. Make adjust-
ments when you are o the saddle, not riding or sitting on bike. Attempting
to adjust rebound while sitting or riding in motion on your bicycle can lead to a
serious hand/finger injury or a loss of rider control, which can result in serious
injury or death.
SETTING TRAVEL
The DYAD RT2 has two travel modes, activated by the remote handlebar-mounted lever. Switching between
the modes changes the bike’s sag and BB height, oering a higher BB and steeper angles for climbing, or
a lower BB and slacker angles for descending, keeping the rider in the proper position for the terrain. It is
fundamentally like having two dierent bikes available to you at the flick of a switch.
To operate remote lever :
Push the lever forward until it clicks into place in the ELEVATE 95 mm position.
Press the lever button to release the lever and allow cable tension to return the lever to the FLOW 160 mm
position.
ELEVATE 95 mm FLOW 160 mm
A (short travel) mode with low volume air shock
for providing a firm, progressive spring rate,
XC type damping circuits for trail riding, rolling
terrain, and climbing performance.
Spring Rate is Steeper
Sag is cut to 60%
BB is higher / Steep Geometry
DYAD RT2’s L.A.S. (linear airspring technology)
provides a spring rate that is virtually identical
to a coil spring and mates it with speed sensitive
DH style damping circuits tuned for maximum
descending performance.
Spring rate is softer.

REMOTE CABLE INSTALLATION
Attach remote cable with shock unmounted from frame.
1. Place bike in a work stand with the rear wheel
supported so the linkage does not move and the shock
can be positioned and reconnected.
2. Determine cable housing length. Allow sufficient slack
for proper shock operation and full handlebar steering
rotation. Too much housing can interference with
moving frame parts.
3. Install ferrules at both ends of the cable housing.
4. Set lever to FLOW - 160mm mode. Insert a new
derailleur cable (1.2 mm) into lever, housing end
through to the shock end.
5. Feed housing/cable under shock bridge, and into the
bottom of the shock spool chamber, and out the shock
cable anchor. Make sure that you have a new or cleanly
snipped cable, or the anchor set screw is backed out far
enough. Otherwise, you may have difficulty feeding the
cable through the spool chamber and past the anchor
set screw.
WARNING
HIGH PRESSURE HAZARD - Do not remove the
spool chamber end caps for any reason! Very
high-pressure can propel the end caps with
extreme force and velocity, potentially resulting
in serious injury or death.
6. Pulling the cable taut, tighten the cable anchor 1.5mm
set screw firmly (5-10 in-lb torque).
7. Snip the cable 0.5” above the cable anchor, and cap it.

8. Install the DYAD RT2 back into the bicycle frame.
Clean the mounting bolt threads, apply Loctite 242
(blue) and tighten to 8.0 Nm, 71 InLbs.
9. Secure the housing to the DT frame guide.
10. Test the lever for normal operation between the
160mm and 95mm travel modes.
A frame guard should be
placed so that the cable
does not rub the frame.

MAINTENANCE
The following table lists only supplemental maintenance items. Please consult your Cannondale Bicycle
Owner’s Manual for more information on basic bike maintenance. Consult with your Cannondale Dealer to
create a complete maintenance program for your riding style, components, and conditions of use. Follow the
maintenance recommendations given by the component manufacturers for the various non-Cannondale
parts of your bike.
ITEM FREQUENCY
HOUSING AND CABLES - Your bike has been supplied with small
adhesive frame protectors - KF103/. Place this material on the the
frame between where cables and housing rub due to movement.
Overtime, cable rubbing can wear into the frame itself causing very
serious frame damage.
NOTE: Damage to your bike caused by cable rubbing is not a condition
covered under your warranty. Also, adhesive frame guards are not
a fix for incorrectly installed or routed cables or lines. If you find
that applied guards are wearing out very quickly, consult with your
Cannondale Dealer about the routing on your bike.
BEFORE FIRST RIDE
DAMAGE INSPECTION - Clean and visually inspect entire bike frame/
swingarm/linkage assembly for cracks or damage. See “Inspect For
Safety” in your Cannondale Bicycle Owner’s Manual.
BEFORE AND AFTER EACH
RIDE
CHECK TIGHTENING TORQUES - In addition to other component
specific tightening torques for your bike. Tighten according to the
TIGHTENING TORQUES information listed in this supplement.
EVERY FEW RIDES
INSPECT BEARINGS, REPLACE WORN OR DAMAGED PARTS :
• SHOCK LINK • SEAT STAY
• MAIN PIVOT
IN WET, MUDDY, SANDY
CONDITIONS EVERY 25 HRS.
IN DRY, CONDITIONS
EVERY 50 HRS.
FORK & SHOCK - Please consult the manufacturer’s owner’s manual for maintenance information for your
fork .
WARNING
ANY PART OF A POORLY MAINTAINED BIKE CAN BREAK OR MALFUNCTION LEADING TO AN
ACCIDENT WHERE YOU CAN BE KILLED, SEVERELY INJURED OR PARALYZED. Please ask your
Cannondale Dealer to help you develop a complete maintenance program, a program which includes a
list of the parts on your bike for YOU to check regularly. Frequent checks are necessary to identify the
problems that can lead to an accident.
