The pedals will be marked L (Left) and R (Right). The R pedal is for the crank
arm with the chainring. This threads on with a narrow 15mm wrench in a
clockwise direction. The L pedal is for the non-chain side and threads on in
a counter-clockwise direction. Make sure both pedals are threaded on to
40Nm.
Remove the top cap by loosening the Allen bolt of the steer tube of the
fork. Making certain not to drop the fork, install the stem on the steer tube
and tighten the center bolt until you have adjusted any looseness out of the
headset bearing (at the same time making certain the bearings turn freely
and are not too tight). Center the stem to the fork and tighten the stem
bolts with a 4mm torque wrench to 5Nm.
The front wheel quick release skewer can be installed with the lever on the
left or right side. Install the wheel so that it is center in the dropouts and
tighten the quick release skewer.
The front fender and light attach to the bridge of the fork by means of a
5mm Allen head bolt, and on the lower portion by means of 4mm Allen
head bolts. Some bicycles may have both bolts and 8mm nuts to ax the
fender stays. Plug the light in being mindful of the keyway in the connector.
Aim the lamp in a direction that allows you to see 5m ahead of you when
seated on the bicycle.
Check all nuts and bolts on the bicycle for tightness especially the seat, seat
post, stem, and handlebar bolts. Be certain that all the levers and controls
can be reached without interference and that the gears and brakes work
properly and safely.
Inate your tires as recommended by the tire manufacturer’s
recommendation on the sidewall of the tire.
