Assembly Guide
Almost all our bicycles are delivered fully tuned. By this we mean that the
gears, brakes, chainset and all major moving parts have been adjusted
accordingly, and do not require any further setting up.
In order to fit your bicycle into it's delivery box, we may have had to
do one or more of the following, Remove front wheel, Remove pedals and the handlebars/stem.
Reinstall Front Wheel
Reinstallation is extremely simple and should take only a few
moments.
To do this ensure that the quick release skewer is in the wheel
axle. Position the wheel squarely in the fork dropouts.
Hold one side of the quick release skewer, and turn the other
end clockwise until finger tight.
Lock the skewer by pushing it up or down to secure the
wheel (use should feel resistance when locking the skewer to the closed position).
Reinstall Pedals
Reinstallation is very simple and should take no longer than a few
minutes
Simply screw the pedals in by hand at first, and then tighten
with a spanner. Please ensure however that you screw the pedals in
squarely, and not at an odd angle. DO NOT FORCE THE PEDALS IN. If they are a bit stiff, apply a
drop of oil.
Please note the right hand pedal screws in clockwise, and the
left hand pedal screws in anti clock wise. The pedals are labeled L and R respectively
on the end of the screw in thread,
ATTENTION
PLEASE NOTE THE PEDALS HAVE L AND R ON THE
END OF EACH PEDAL, IF THESE ARE PLACED ON
THE INCORRECT SIDE OR ARE CROSS THREADED
THEY WILL NOT BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY.
PLEASE TAKE CARE. THANK YOU.
Re-Adjust handlebar Stem to Correct Riding Position
Reinstallation is extremely simple and should take no longer
than a few minutes. Simply position the handlebars and forks to the correct riding position.
Ensure that the forks are facing in the correct direction. If in doubt consult the picture
of your bike on our website.

1. Remove top nut and A-head cap.
