FRAME PREPARATION

The mounting points for the fender struts may need to be cleared of excess paint left over from the manufacturing process.

The residual paint will make it difficult to thread the mounting bolts into their respective points.

This will cause inaccurate torque readings when attempting to tighten the bolts to their specified torque value.

Use the M6x1.0mm tap to clear the residual paint out of the mounting points in the rear dropouts. (Fig. 8)

TOOL REQUIRED

  • M6x1.0mm Tap
  • Use the M5x0.8mm tap to clear the residual paint out of the mounting points in the fork dropouts. (Fig. 9)

TOOL REQUIRED

  • M5x0.8mm Tap

REAR FENDER

  • Remove the rear wheel from the bicycle. To facilitate removal of the rear wheel, loosen the IS mount bolts on the brake caliper. Remove the aft most bolt completely and push the caliper upwards. (Fig. 20 & 21)
  • Thread the bolt back into the IS mount and allow the caliper to rest on the brake mount. (Fig, 22 & 23) This will keep the brake caliper out of the way of the brake rotor during the wheel removal.

FRONT FENDER TUNING

FRONT FENDER

Take measurements of the front edge of the fender to the centreline of the tire. (Fig. 39)Take a measurement of the rear edge of the fender to the centreline of the tire. (Fig. 40) These measurements should be as equal as possible to within a tolerance of 2-3mm.

The optimal distance for the front fender from the tire should be 15-18mm. If the measurements are not equal, please follow the following steps to ensure that the fenders are installed safely.

FRONT FENDER (Fig. 39) Measure the front edge of the fender to the centreline of the tire.

(Fig. 40) Measure the rear edge of the fender to the centreline of the tire.

The change in the bend angle of the strut will adjust the fender spacing from the tire.

Decreasing the bend angle will bring the rear of the fender closer to the tire and the front away from the tire. (Fig. 41)

Whereas increasing the bend angle will bring the rear of the fender away from the tire and the front of the fender closer. (Fig. 42)

COAST-CYCLES-BUZZRAW-X-Ultimate-Unconventional-Commuter E-Bike-

FIG17

  • Remove the strut mounting bolts. (Fig 43)
  • Using one hand, brace the strut above the bend. With the free hand push the end of the strut to decrease the bend angle of the strut (Fig. 44) or pull it away to increase the bend angle.

NOTE

  • Ensure both sides of the strut are adjusted to the same angle. If the angles are inconsistent, the fenders will form an unnatural twist. After the adjustments have been made and the struts have been bolted to the dropouts, use a ruler to take the measurement from the center of the tire to the bottom of the edge. (Fig. 41 & 42)
  • If the measurements are equal and between the 15mm to 18mm range, the adjustment is complete.
