Chain Management:

The Orbit chain management system helps maintain chain tension and reduces noise and chain slap, especially over rough terrain. This system is automatic and requires no user intervention during riding.

Opretholdelse

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your derailleur.

• Rensning: After each ride, especially in wet or dirty conditions, clean the derailleur body, pulleys, and chain with a mild degreaser and brush. Rinse thoroughly and dry.
• Smøring: Lubricate your chain regularly with a high-quality bicycle chain lubricant. Avoid getting lubricant on the derailleur body or brake surfaces.
• Pulleys Inspection: Periodically inspect the X-SYNC pulleys for wear. Worn pulleys can lead to poor shifting performance and increased noise. Replace if necessary.
• Batteriopladning: Charge the AXS battery regularly. A fully charged battery provides approximately 60 hours of ride time, but this can vary based on usage and conditions.
• Kontrol af boltmoment: Periodically check all mounting bolts for correct torque settings. Refer to SRAM's official documentation for specific torque values.

Fejlfinding

If you encounter issues with your derailleur, consider the following common troubleshooting steps:

• Poor Shifting Performance:
  • Kontroller batteriniveauet, og oplad det, hvis det er lavt.
  • Verify B-gap adjustment.
  • Inspect chain and cassette for wear or damage.
  • Check for bent derailleur hanger.
  • Perform micro-adjustments via the AXS app or shifter buttons.
• Chain Noise/Bounce:
  • Ensure chain is clean and properly lubricated.
  • Check for proper chain length.
  • Verify Orbit chain management system is functioning (no visible damage).
• Derailleur Not Responding:
  • Kontroller batteriforbindelsen og opladningen.
  • Re-pair the derailleur with your shifters.
