MRP D-Mount 1x Manuals

IMPORTANT CONSUMER SAFETY INFORMATION WARNING: RIDING A BIKE IS DANGEROUS. NOT PROPERLY MAINTAINING OR INSPECTING YOUR BIKE AND ITS COMPONENTS IS EVEN MORE DANGEROUS. IT IS ALSO DANGEROUS TO NOT READ AND FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS. 1. DO NOT PERFORM ANY MODIFICATIONS OR ADJUSTMENTS THAT ARE NOT OUTLINED IN THIS MANUAL. 2. INSPECT YOUR CHAIN GUIDE BEFORE EVERY RIDE. INSPECT AREAS FOR ANY SIGNS OF EXCESSIVE RUBBING, BENDING, CRACKING OR OTHER DAMAGE. IF YOU NOTICE ANYTHING ABNORMAL, DO NOT RIDE IT. RETURN IT TO YOUR DEALER OR CONTACT MRP FOR A COMPLETE INSPECTION AND NECESSARY REPAIR. 3. MRP RECOMMENDS THAT YOU WEAR PROPER SAFETY EQUIPMENT EVERY TIME YOU RIDE, INCLUDING APPROVED BICYCLE HELMET. NEVER RIDE AT NIGHT WITHOUT LIGHTS. 4. ALWAYS USE GENUINE MRP PARTS. USE OF AFTERMARKET REPLACEMENT PARTS AND UPGRADES VOIDS THE WARRANTY AND COULD CAUSE STRUCTURAL FAILURE. MRP HIGHLY RECOMMENDS THAT YOU HAVE YOUR NEW GUIDE INSTALLED BY A PROFESSIONAL MECHANIC AT YOUR FAVORITE LOCAL BIKE SHOP. IF YOU HAVE ANY DOUBTS ABOUT HOW TO INSTALL YOUR GUIDE, TAKE IT TO A BIKE SHOP. YOU’LL BE GLAD YOU DID. COMPATIBILITY The D-Mount 1x guide is compatible with most single- ring specific and three-ring cranks (with outer and inner ring removed) and can accommodate a 49-51mm chainline on standard mountain bikes and 62.5-64.5mm chainline on most “fat” bikes. Used in a single-ring application, two-ring “double” cranks may produce a wide chainline incompatible with the D-Mount 1x. There are several “offset” chainrings on the market that can fix this incompatibility. The D-Mount 1x guide includes four 1mm spacers that can be installed on the mounting bolt and pivot boss between the mounting plate and guide arm. 1 USER MANUAL D-MOUNT MODEL MOUNTING PLATE GUIDE ARM PIVOT BOSS MOUNTING BOLT SPACER IMPORTANT CONSUMER SAFETY INFORMATION WARNING: RIDING A BIKE IS DANGEROUS.
