Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Occam SL M10, perform a safety check before every ride, focusing on tire pressure and brake lever responsiveness. The carbon frame should be inspected periodically for any impact marks or cracks.
- Suspension Setup: Set the sag on both the fork and shock according to your body weight using a high-pressure shock pump.
- Drivetrain Maintenance: Clean and lubricate the chain every 50-100 miles, ensuring the Shimano XT cassette remains free of debris.
- Brake Bleeding: Schedule a professional brake bleed at least once a season or if the lever feel becomes 'spongy.'
- Storage: Always store the bike in a dry, climate-controlled environment to prevent degradation of the suspension seals and hydraulic fluids.
