Folding Steps

Bike Installation Instructions
Snap the front tyre of the ebike into the front wheel holder, place the rear tyre in the beam, and then use the ratchet wheel straps to fix the front wheel, rear wheel, and seat tube of the bicycle as shown in the figure below. Please place one bike on the side that is close to the vehicle first, and install the Connecting Block (12) after the bike is fixed. It’s generally recommended that use the ratchet wheel strap to fix the crossbar (if applicable) or the middle tube (or seat post). Considering that some electric bikes have thicker downtubes, please do not strap the e-downtube.
