Post crate Pre-Ride check
1.Open the crate and remove the 2 boards locking the wheels in place. With the help of
another person, slowly roll the bike out of the crate. Remove anything else (accessories,
additional components, packaging materials) from inside the crate and recycle the packaging
wherever possible.
2.Carefully unwrap the charger from in front of the seat and ensure all the following pieces
are included with your Bowhead REACH:
• Charger
• Battery
• Seat cushion (if ordered)
• Informational hang tags (attached to bike)
• Leg strap & Rear axle pin
If anything is missing, please contact Bowhead immediately.
If you are located outside of North America, your battery and charger will be shipped
separately. Your bike will come with an empty Pelican 1200 case pre-drilled and ready for
your battery to be installed. Please see New International Battery Installation Instructions
on page 18.
3.We also recommend the following (not included) for post crate pre-ride check and
maintenance:
• Strong friend or work stand to
lift your bike when required
• 18mm socket wrench
• T25 drive-style screwdriver
• Bicycle grease
• H4 & H5 Hex Key
• Torque wrench (3Nm-30Nm) with
Hex bits
• Adjustable flat edge pliers
• Clean shop towel or paper towel
for cleaning excess grease
• Bike pump with pressure gauge
Now that your bike is un-packed, and you have checked to make sure you have all the
required components (List 2 above) for your REACH, it is time for the pre-ride check!
