• The right pedal (marked “R”) must be installed in the right crank arm. It is standard thread, rotate
clockwise to install and tighten.
• Use an adjustable wrench to finish tightening the pedal in place.
• Slide chainring and crankarm over the spindle of the bottom bracket.
• Using an 8mm hex wrench, tighten the crank arm to 38nm of torque.
• Check the left side crank arm as well. It should be very tight, 38nm.
• Failure to properly tighten these may result in a loose crank arm that will become damaged over
time and require replacement.
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.
2.6 Detailed Torque Settings:
Saddle Clamp Bolt: 16-17nm (unless otherwise marked on seatpost)
Crank Arms: 39nm
Compression Cap (bolt): 4-5nm (unless otherwise marked, make sure steering is still free but fork is not
loose or wobbly)
Stem/Steerer Clamp: 8-9nm (unless otherwise marked on stem)
Handlebar Clamp: 8-9nm (unless otherwise marked on stem), tighten evenly in a cross pattern. The gap by
each screw should be the same if done properly.
2.7 Adjust Derailleur and Shifter:
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.
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.
Adjusting your derailleur properly will be done best by a mechanic, however it can be accomplished by following a
helpful video. Please check our support pages at www.Ride1UP.com for the latest tips and video on how to do this
properly.
