These Trikes come partially assembled. We have previously built the entire Trike up and
adjusted the brakes and derailleurs and then disassembled to fit in the box. The things
that need to be done is installing the wheels, brakes , installing the steering bar , putting
the seat cloth on the seat and attaching it to the frame , adjusting the length of the boom
and chain, pedals, and inflating the tires.
NOTES:
As we continually try to make improvements on our models, some specifications will
change over time.
Periodically check all the bolts especially in the first 100 miles
Check Spokes after riding 50 miles and again after 100 miles. It is common for Stainless
spokes to be loosen up a little when first riding.
Most Trikes will need some readjusting after the cables stretch a little.
