Going to be swapping the calipers shortly, and in the spirit of not being completely half-arsed I’d like to mildly observe the relevant torque settings. Especially, as first carbon/disc brake interaction.

Will there be a specific torque setting from Giant, if so how can I find it out as bobbins info with the bike, or do I just go off Shimano’s tech doc for the brakes?

…if anyone works, for a Giant dealer, and has a secret book of these settings laying about and could let me know, then that would be just super.

2014 TCX SLR 1 FWIW.

I looked in the official top secret deny all knowledge burn before reading book and it said…….
The torque should be somewhere between getting the top off a bottle of HP sauce and throttling a partially run over rabbit.
5-6NM will be sufficient.

Thanks for taking the time out from terrorising Tokyo to help me out.

P.S That’s me on the right.

I look quite excited (or is that a tail?).

Whatever it is, it seems tumescent.
