UNBOXING
WARNING:
Failure to follow assembly instructions below can lead to serious injury or death.
QuietKat recommends that the bike be assembled, inspected and adjusted by a certified bicycle
mechanic or bicycle shop before riding. For more information on assembly, check out our
assembly and maintenance videos at www.QuietKat.com.
Carefully remove the bike from the box.
Remove all packaging materials and place them back in
the box.
Be careful not to cut hydraulic brake lines when removing
zip-ties and protective packaging.
Place the bike in a repair stand hanging from the seatpost
(if possible)
Attach the handlebars.
Use caution when opening the box as there may be staples
exposed when opening the lid.
Using a 4mm allen wrench, remove the 4 bolts from the front of
the stem and remove the faceplate.
If you do not have a repair stand, place the bike on the floor
and engage the kickstand. Use caution as the bike could tip
over prior to installing the front wheel, even with the kickstand
engaged. For extra safety, lean the bike against a wall or solid
object to avoid tipping over.

until snug. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN!
