How to inspect and install a set screw on your MEC Provincial
222 Road Bike
Note: The following images show the fork without the wheel installed. You do not need to remove
your wheel to inspect for a set screw.
Inspect to see if the set screw is in place:
The area to inspect is circled in red.
The set screw area is located on the
bottom of the fork tab, and is on the side
of the fork that doesn’t have the disc
brake rotor.
Set screw is in place (visible in
centre of the red circle).
If your bike looks like this, no further action
needs to be taken. Keep the enclosed set
screw as a spare.
Set screw is missing (empty
hole in centre of red circle).
Follow the next steps to install the set
screw.

How to install the set screw:
You will need:
Set screw (enclosed with this letter)
2mm hex wrench/Allen key
Note: It’s easiest to install the set screw with the front wheel removed. We also recommend that
you clean the threads in the threaded hole with a cotton swab before you install the screw.
1. Loosen the through-axle.
2. Slide out the axle nut to see
the groove on the axle nut.
3. Align the groove on the axle
nut with the threaded hole for
the set screw.
4. Slide the axle nut back into the
fork. Make sure the groove and
the threaded hole stay aligned
as you slide the axle nut back
in.
5. Use your fingers to thread the
set screw in place. You want
the set screw to go through the
threaded hole and into the
groove on the axle nut.
6. Tighten the set screw with your
2mm hex wrench/Allen key.
Note: set screw will stick out 2–
4mm.
7. Replace wheel and tighten
through-axle.
8. You have finished installing the
set screw.
