STEP 1
:
INSTALL FRONT WHEEL
To install the front wheel, you rst need to determine the right and left sides of the 1.
front wheel. The easiest way to accomplish this is to nd the small magnet located
on one of the spokes, and orient the wheel so that the magnet is on the same side as
the black sensor attached to the fork. This will ensure you have correctly oriented the
wheel as to left and right.
The front wheel is attached to the bike with a quick-release type of skewer. After 2.
locating the skewer, remove the nut on the end opposite the lever, and slide one of
the conical springs onto the skewer — wide-end rst.
Once the spring is against the lever’s nut, slide the skewer through the axle so that 3.
the lever is on the left side of the wheel.
Now slide the second spring onto the skewer — narrow-end rst — then screw the 4.
nut partially back on.
Rotate the fork so the brake is toward the front of the bike.5.
Release the front brake by squeezing the brake arms, and lift the bent tube holding 6.
the cable out of its cradle (indicated by the arrow in Fig. 1B).
With the axle fully seated into the fork dropouts (the slots that accept the axle), and 7.
the lever in the OPEN position, turn the nut to adjust the clamping pressure, and
swing the lever rearward to the CLOSED position, where you will feel noticeable
resistance. The lever should leave a slight impression in your hand, and the lever
should be parallel to the center-line of the bike when adjusted properly.
