UNPACKING INSTRUCTIONS
IT IS STRONGLY RECOMMENDED HAVING TWO PERSONS FOR UNPACKING.
HOW THE BOX IS PACKED:
- Documentation (packed in foam block): Greeting Letter; Unpacking & Assembly Instructions; Quick Start Guide; Manual. Parts: Fender Stay; Pedals; Quick Release Skewer; Charger; Touch-Up Paint.
- Main pre-assembled equipment: Frame, Battery & main componentry; Seat assembly; Rear Wheel assembly; Handlebar assembly – not yet fixed into stem, but is connected to frame by electronic & hydraulic cables.
- Front Wheel with Front Fender (packed together & zip tied to frame).
- Headlight: Packed separately in brown box.
TOOLS YOU’LL NEED:
Box cutters or scissors / Allen wrenches/hex keys, sizes: 3, 4, 5 & 6mm Open-
ended socket or adjustable wrenches, sizes: 8, 10, 14 & 15mm.
UNPACKING INSTRUCTIONS:
- Prepare to remove the front wheel and front fender which have been packed together and zip-tied to the frame of the bike. Locate the zip tie and very carefully cut using scissors or box cutter, then remove the wheel and fender as one package, together.
- Now carefully lift the rest of the bike out of the box, being sure to support the handlebar and bike together simultaneously to prevent cables from being pulled or damaged. Also make sure NOT to pull brake levers before the front wheel is securely installed. Sometimes the plastic brake caliper shim (designed to stop calipers from closing during transit) falls out.
- Remove remaining items from the box, checking thoroughly to ensure nothing has fallen loose. Check you have all items before beginning assembly.
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
IT IS STRONGLY RECOMMENDED HAVING TWO PERSONS FOR ASSEMBLY.
WARNING
DO NOT ATTEMPT THIS ASSEMBLY UNLESS YOU ARE EXPERIENCED IN CYCLE OR MECHANICAL
EQUIPMENT ASSEMBLY.
WILDSYDE LLC WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGE, INJURY OR DEATH TO PERSONS OR
PROPERTY AS A RESULT.
WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND SEEKING PROFESSIONAL HELP FROM A SPECIALTY BICYCLE STORE OR MOBILE MECHANIC SUCH AS VELOFIX.COM FOR THE ASSEMBLY OF YOUR NEW WILDSYDE BICYCLE. IT IS CRITICALLY IMPORTANT THAT ALL COMPONENTS ARE INSTALLED CORRECTLY, NUTS AND BOLTS SECURED TO THE CORRECT TIGHTNESS AND THE BICYCLE IS IN PERFECT WORKING ORDER PRIOR TO RIDING. WILDSYDE LLC WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGE, INJURY OR DEATH TO PERSONS OR PROPERTY AS A RESULT OF ASSEMBLING YOUR OWN BIKE.
A. FRONT WHEEL INSTALLATION
Unpack
Quick Release Skewer (QRS), unscrew nut from thread and gently push skewer
through front wheel axle, ensuring lever is on opposite side to brake rotor.
Once through, lightly screw nut back onto thread .
Next, remove plastic brake caliper shim from between brake caliper on front
fork (if not already fallen out during shipping). Remember NOT to pull brake
lever until wheel is securely installed to avoid locking calipers together.
Now have your assistant hold front of bike off the ground and place wheel into
forks – ensuring wheel is the correct way round so rotor is lined up with
calipers. Lower forks so wheel axle sits centered inside fork dropouts and
brake rotor is perfectly seated between calipers. Now carefully tighten nut on
QRS and fold lever tightly until wheel is completely secure. 
KICKSTAND You might now find it useful to rest bike on its kickstand for the remainder of the assembly. To adjust, loosen screw on back, then manually lengthen and tighten so ebike will stand securely on its own.
B. HANDLEBAR DISASSEMBLY/ASSEMBLY
Using 4mm wrench, remove the 2 or 4 bolts (varies between ebike models) from handlebar clamp assembly on stem and detach clamp. Have yourassistant position bars into stem, whilst replacing clamp and bolts, lightly securing handlebar into place. Now use LCD display to help find handlebar center, then tighten bolts securely (5-8N.m) until there is zero movement.
C & D. FITTING FRONT FENDER & HEADLIGHT
First attach fender stay and fender together before fitting to forks. Unscrew
bolts on fender, position closed end of stay to inside fender, then reinsert
bolts and tighten securely. Now the fender and stay are ready to be fitted to
the forks, along with the headlight.
For Hunni Bunni & Shadow: Remove bolt at top of rear front fork, slide fender
over front wheel. Locate attachment tab on fender and position to rear of rear
front fork. Reinsert bolt and tighten securely. Next remove bolt at top of
front fork, position headlight bracket in front of fork, center and angle
headlight, reinsert bolt and tighten securely. Connect cable from light to
bike cable connector, located where headlight mounts to fork. Finally attach
fender stay rods to rear (or only) fork each side using the bolts provided.
For The Beast: The fender on the Beast uses a pillar with a nut channel in it,
in which the nut of the bolt for the headlight drops into. Once nut, fender
and headlight bracket are correctly positioned, tighten bolt. The nut will
hold tight within the pillar. Connect light cable and fender stay rods, as
above.
For Paree & Roam: Remove bolt at top of front fork, slide fender over front
wheel. Locate attachment tab on fender and position into place behind fork.
Position light bracket in front of fork, center and angle light, reinsert bolt
and tighten firmly, securing both fender and light. Connect light cable and
fender stay rods, as above.
E. ATTACHING PEDALS
Once the pedals are unwrapped, identify left and right pedals marked ‘L’ &
‘R’. First apply a little grease to both pedal threads before fitting, then
carefully hand-thread one at a time onto cranks, always turning thread towards
front of bike. Once both pedals are on, tighten securely with a pedal wrench
or 15mm adjustable wrench.
Once the bike is securely assembled, we recommend fully charging the battery
before going on a long ride. Please now read the accompanied Quick Start Guide
and follow the instructions carefully on how to operate your ebike.
