[@nejcbesal1578]

Hey, I have a question about torque specs on the casette and cranks. Please someone answer me.

[@thundermountainbikes]

The cassette torque is 40Nm and the cranks are 54Nm.

[@jsassone1]

Super helpful video! I thought I had read somewhere that you need to set sag to 0, is this correct? or do you set at 30% as you would for setup of a non-transmission derailleur?

[@thundermountainbikes]

happy to help!
