The size of the Gocycle rim is generally compatible with BMX-sized tyre (406x40-47) from 1.75" to 2".
Because tyre construction and quality vary greatly from manufacturer to manufacturer we can only
recommend that you use Gocycle approved tyres as available through the Gocycle webstore.
WARNING! Bicycle tyres do not last forever. When the tread depth is critically low and the centreline
grooves in the tyre have worn down in any part of the tyre, it may be dangerous to continue to ride
on the tyre, and in this event, we recommend that you replace the tyre.

Adjusting the Headset
From time to time it may be necessary to tighten the headset if it becomes loose. This process is
explained by the following steps:
Check for loose headset. There
should be no play in the steerer
assembly.
Remove front wheel and
carefully place Gocycle onto a
non-slip surface. Grip the
handlebars and rock forwards
and backwards to check for any
fore-aft movement between the
handlebar stem fork assembly
and the main frame as shown.
The connection of the handlebar
stem fork assembly and the
front frame should feel solid
and only be free to rotate with
respect to the main frame.
