Attaching The Rack To Your Bike
1. Install the rack onto the appropriate rack mounts on the frame using the 16mm cap screws, and grease the threads lightly.
Leave the screws slightly loose until height and angle adjustments are made. Remember: The upper hardware slides on the
rack tube to adjust for the width of the frame braze-ons.
2. Mount your rack as low as possible. Always maintain a minimum 6mm clearance between the bottom of the rack and
the rear tire. This will keep the center of gravity low when the rack is loaded.
3. Use torque wrench with 4mm bit to tighten the lower clamp hardware to 3–4Nm when the proper height is attained.
4. Adjust the rack angle, so rack is parallel to the ground.
5. Use torque wrench with 4mm bit to tighten the M8 set screws to 6Nm when the proper angle is attained.
6. Use torque wrench with 4mm bit to tighten the upper 16mm cap screws to 6Nm to finish the installation.
Ongoing Maintenance
WARNING: Improper installation of bolts may lead to product failure, causing serious injury. Do not exceed specified torque
values. Periodically inspect bolts and retighten if required.
Frequently check to make sure that all of the rack hardware is properly torqued per these instructions and the rack maintains
position 6mm above the rear wheel. Check to make sure that the rack mounting bolts are properly tightened and secure the rack
to the bicycle frame. Periodically check for any signs of cracking or failure and discontinue use if rack is damaged.
