means of the stop for the outer sleeve. Rear shocks that do not have
this stop cannot be remotely controlled with RCL²!
Danger of accident due to faulty installation work.
Î – Make sure that the RCL² cannot interfere with brake and gear shift
actuation and function in any lever position.
Damage to material due to faulty installation work.
Î – Never fit the clamps in the wider area of the handlebar.
Î – Never exceed the maximum tightening torques.
There are 3 different fastening options for the RCL²:
Î – Standard clamp ( 4 ) – for fitting next to the brake lever.
Î – Standard clamp with spacer ( 5 ) and long clamping screw ( 6 ) – for fitting
next to the brake lever in combination with twist shifters.
Î – Remote mix clamp ( 7 ) – only for direct fitting to brake levers of
MAGURA MT Series and HS Series (MAGURA rim brakes) as of model
year 2011.

can be mounted on the right side if required.
) Define the position of the standard clamp on the handlebar.
О О Make sure that the brake and gear shift actuation and function is not
impaired in any RCL² lever position.
О О
The lever and return dial on the RCL² must be easily reachable.
) Tighten the clamping screw ( 6 ) ( 8 ) on the standard clamp with a tighten-
ing torque of max. 3 N·m (27 lbf·in).
) Tighten the sleeve nuts ( 9 ) on the Remote Mix clamp with a tightening
torque of max. 3 N·m (27 lbf·in).
