Install front wheels
Attach the front wheels to their respective spindle/steering arm assemblies. First,
identify the left and right wheels and set them on the correct side of the trike. Unscrew
the quick release to remove domed axle nuts for wheel installation.
Now you can place the wheel in position, sliding the disc in between the brake pads.
Place the wheel hub opening directly over the axle, then slide the axle through the hub
from behind the spindle assembly. The quick release lever goes on the inside of the
spindle. The bolt and its retaining ring go on wheel. Place the cone-shaped retaining
ring (flat side in) against the hub, thread the quick release bolt in and hand-tighten it.
Then close the quick release lever for a tight hold.
These quick releases hold the wheels on, so, it’s very important
that they be kept secure. Check them from time to time.
Handlebar adjustment
Your new Catrike adjustable handlebars can be adjusted in many ways to give each
Catrike owner a custom fit. The long, horizontal portion of the handlebar has a gentle
incline to it. For those riders who prefer lower handlebars, this can be installed upside
down to provide a gentle downward slope. The same holds true for the shorter grip
portion of the handlebar. It has a gentle angle leaning forward but can be reversed. You
can see the difference in mounting in the pictures below. The picture on the top shows
the recommended standard setup.
The handlebar sets come in left and right sides. When mounting them upside down,
simply swap sides to keep the heads of the screws on the
inside of the trike, making them easier to reach with the
Allen key.
