Using the Mobile Application
The WHEEL TOP mobile application allows you to:
- Manage paired devices.
- Monitor riding data such as speed, heart rate, total mileage, riding time, and cadence.
- Potentially fine-tune shifting settings (refer to app for specific features).
Maintenance
Cleaning
Due to the IP67 water and dust proofing, the components can withstand various weather conditions. However, regular cleaning is recommended to maintain optimal performance. Use a damp cloth to wipe down the shifter and derailleur. Avoid high-pressure washing directly onto sensitive areas.
Battery Care
- Rear Derailleur: Recharge the 800mAH battery as needed. Avoid fully discharging the battery frequently to prolong its lifespan.
- Shifter: Replace the CR2032 battery when the indicator light shows low power or shifting becomes inconsistent.
General Inspection
Periodically check all bolts and clamps for tightness. Inspect the guide rollers and chain for wear. The derailleur's sealed bearings are designed for durability, but ensure no excessive play develops over time.
Troubleshooting
- Shifting Issues:
- Check shifter and derailleur battery levels.
- Ensure proper pairing between shifter and derailleur via the APP.
- Verify that the derailleur limit screws (High limit screw B, Low limit screw C) and adjustment screw (F) are correctly set.
- Inspect the chain and cassette for wear or damage.
- Connectivity Problems:
- Ensure both components are powered on.
- Re-attempt APP pairing if connection is lost.
- Check for any physical obstructions or interference.
- Compatibility Concerns:
- The groupset is designed to support 3-14 speed cassettes. Ensure your cassette falls within this range.
- Verify your cassette's maximum sprocket size is compatible with your derailleur's cage length (e.g., 93mm cage for up to 52T).
- While the system is designed for broad compatibility, specific compatibility with other brands like Shimano or SRAM components cannot be guaranteed without direct testing. Consult a professional bike mechanic for mixed-brand setups.
- Battery Not Charging:
- Ensure the charging cable is securely connected to the magnetic charging port (G) and a power source.
- Check the charging cable and power adapter for damage.
User Tips
- Always check the compatibility of your cassette with the derailleur cage length before installation to ensure optimal performance and prevent damage.
- Regularly monitor battery levels, especially for the rear derailleur, to avoid unexpected power loss during rides.
- Utilize the WHEEL TOP mobile application for monitoring riding data and potential fine-tuning, enhancing your overall cycling experience.
