Inating Tires and Checking
Pressure
Your Montague e-bike is shipped
with the rear tire deated for packing
purposes.
1. Remove the valve stem cap, and
using a standard bicycle tire pump,
inate the rear tire. Refer to the
instructions for your pump to ensure
proper use. The recommended
pressure for your bike is specied on
the sidewall of the tire.
2. Since bicycle tires can lose pressure
over time, the front tire may also
require ination. Check the tire
pressure and add air if necessary to
reach the recommended pressure for
your tires.
ASSEMBLING YOUR MONTAGUE BICYCLE CONTINUED
1. Align the right pedal axle into the
threaded hole in the right crank arm
and secure it in the crank by hand.
The right hand side of the bicycle is
the side of the bicycle with the chain.
2. The right pedal is installed by turning
the pedal axle clockwise (Fig. 26).
3. Align the left pedal axle into the
threaded hole in the left crank arm
and secure it in the crank by hand.
The left hand side of the bicycle is
the side of the bicycle opposite the
chain.
4. The left pedal is installed by turning
the pedal axle counter-clockwise
(Fig. 26).
5. When both are hand-tight, use the
15mm pedal wrench (in small parts
box) to tighten the pedals to 350-380
lb•in (40.2-42.9 N•m). Each pedal
should be tight against the crank
arm.
