1.3. Installing the front wheel
To assemble the front wheel, check the following procedure :
1. Loosen the four axle pinch bolts on the lower leg with a 5 mm hex key wrench.
2. Using a 6 mm hex key wrench, turn the axle counter-clockwise to loosen and remove.
3. Install the front wheel into the dropouts and install the axle into the lower leg.
4. Put a small amount of grease on the thread of the axle and, using a 6 mm hex key wrench, turn clockwise
and lightly tighten the axle to the lower leg.
5. Tighten the two left side (caliper side) dropout pinch-bolts to 3N.m torque
6. Compress the fork on the bike a couple of times to let the right side of the dropout float and settle to its low-
friction point. Tighten the two right side dropout pinch-bolts 3N.m torque.
1.4. Disc brake installation
The Idylle disc bolt pattern uses caliper mount for post mount 160 (PM160).
To assemble the disc brakes, check the following procedure:
1. Install the DH disc brake system, according to disc brake manufacturer's specifications.
2. Be sure to torque all fasteners and bolts to manufacturer's recommendations. Consult the instructions that
came with your disc brakes for proper installation procedures. It is recommended to install a NEW disc
brake pads, to ensure proper alignment and to minimize drag.
3. Route the disc brake hose (for hydraulic disc brakes) or brake cable housing (for mechanical disc brakes)
from the caliper to the inside of the lower leg and through the supplied disc brake hose guide.
4. Tighten the disc brake hose guide screw (M3 x 12) with a 2.5 mm-hex key wrench, and torque it to 1N.m.
5. Test the brakes for proper operation on level ground before hitting the trails.
The disc brake caliper mounting bolts must have 10 mm of thread engagement with the fork.
In any case, the disc brake caliper mounting bolt tightening torque level must never exceed 10N.m.
2.1. Air pressure (IDYLLE Rare and IDYLLE Air)
The sag measurement is the amount that your fork, rear shock, or both will compress when you are positioned for
riding on your bike, with all your riding apparel and gear. Adjusting air pressure until you achieve your target sag will
help you to determine the appropriate amount of air pressure for your fork or shock, or both.
To achieve the best performance from your BOS suspension product, the proper measuring and setting of sag is
vitally important. As a starting point, set sag for your fork or rear shock according to the following instructions:

The Idylle have an o-ring on the fork upper tube in order to measure the SAG position. You can experiment and vary
your sag percentage to better suit your riding style and overall feel.
