Assembly Instruction

This bikes comes assembled- no tools required for assembly. We strongly recommend you take this bike to a professional bicycle shop for adjustment and education on its operation and maintenance.
Unfolding Your Bike And Connecting The Frame
1. Your bike comes folded. Unfold the frame and swing the two hinged halves until they almost come together – this may require extra effort as the parts are new.
2. You will need to pull up on the quick release latch (Fig. 3) to allow the two frame halves to mate against one another.
3. Once the halves are together, release the quick release latch so it locks (Fig.4).
4. Swing the quick release latch around so it fits fully in the slot in the hinge on the front half of the frame. Make sure the steel and nylon washers are on the outside of the hinge and against the lever body (Fig.5)
5. Close the quick release lever to complete attaching the two halves of the frame (Fig.6 & 7). The lever should require some effort to close. If the lever is too difficult to close, or closes with little effort, tighten or loosen the nut on the end of the latch to adjust the lever tension (Fig.5).

Line

WARNING! Using the bike with the minimum insertion line on the lower portion of the seat post showing above the frame could result in a failure of the seat post and/or the frame causing a loss of control with potential injury to rider. Such failures are not covered by warranty as it is improper use of the product.

Check Tire Inflation & Installation

  1. Locate the tire manufacturer’s recommended inflation pressure found on the tire sidewall (listed as “PSI”).
  2. Using a hand or floor pump with a gauge, begin to inflate the tire to half its recommended inflation pressure and check to see that the tire is properly seated on the rim. Be sure to inspect both sides of the tire for proper fit.
  3. If the tire is seated unevenly or bulges out along the rim, let some air out of the tire and reposition the tire by hand so that it sits evenly on the rim.
  4. Continue to inflate the tire to the manufacturer’s recommended pressure.
  5. Do not exceed the recommended pressure as this will cause an unsafe condition potentially causing the tire to unexpectedly explode.
  6. Do not use a compressed air device to inflate your tires as the rapid inflation of the tire can cause it to blow off the rim.
  7. Tires and tubes are not warranted against damage caused by over-inflation or punctures from road hazards.

Check Handlebar Stem Alignment

  1. Sit on your bike – check to make sure the handlebar stem and fork are in-line with one another.
  2. If it is all good (Fig.20), you are done. Otherwise, do the following:
    A- ­ Unfold the handlebar (Fig.17).
    B – With 5mm hex wrench loosen the Compression Cap ­ the top center bolt in the stem (Fig.18).
    C ­ With the same 5mm hex wrench, loosen the two Stem Binder Bolts on side of stem these hold the stem to the fork. Loosen just enough so you can move/adjust the stem and center it in line with the front tire (Fig.19).
    D ­ Line up the handlebar/stem with the front tire (Fig.20).
    E ­ Reverse the process:
    1. Tighten the top center bolt in the Compression cap of the stem (Fig.18).
    2. Tighten the two Stem Binder Bolts on the side of the stem (Fig.19).
