3.4 Pedal Assembly:
NOTE: ◆ THE LEFT AND RIGHT PEDALS ARE UNIQUE.
The left pedal (marked “L”) must be installed in the left crank arm. It is reverse thread, rotate counter-
clockwise to install and tighten.
Screw each pedal into a crank by hand. They should screw in easily to start. Do not force them.
The right pedal (marked “R”) must be installed in the right crank arm. It is standard thread, rotate
clockwise to install and tighten.
Use a wrench no wider than the flats on pedals to finish tightening the pedals in place.
NOTE: ◆ THERE ARE TWO PEDALS INCLUDED IN THE BOX WITH YOUR BIKE. THE PEDALS SCREW INTO
THE ENDS OF THE CRANKS WITHOUT EXTRA NUTS, SCREWS OR PINS. FAILURE TO USE THE CORRECT
PEDAL ON THE CORRECT SIDE WILL RESULT IN A STRIPPED CRANK ARM.
3.5 Detailed Torque Settings:
Saddle Clamp Bolts: 14nm (unless otherwise marked on seat post).
Crank Arms: 39nm (pre-installed).
Handlebar Clamp: 5-7nm (unless otherwise marked on stem). Tighten evenly in a cross pattern so
the gap at each bolt is the same.
3.6 Adjust Derailleur and Shifter:
Rear derailleurs have 3 adjustment screws (2 are the high and low limit screw), plus the barrel adjuster at
the derailleur and the barrel adjuster on the handlebars
It is critical that the low and high limit screws are properly adjusted. If they are not, the chain may come of
the largest cog, into the spokes and cause permanent damage to your derailleur, derailleur hanger, motor
cable, spokes, and rim. The motor is so powerful that if this happens it can quickly destroy or damage the
components mentioned.
Verify your shifter and derailleur are properly adjusted. When you first assemble your bike, your derailleur
may need to be tuned if you hear any noise while shifting or if it is not shifting smoothly. Or lastly, if the chain
is shifting past the largest or smallest cog.
