ASSEMBLY

Foreword: Assembling a bicycle is an important responsibility. Proper

assembly not only gives the rider more enjoyment of the bicycle; it also

offers an important measure of safety.

Getting Started

Open the carton from the top and remove the bicycle. Remove the straps

and protective wrapping from the bicycle. Inspect the bicycle and all

accessories and parts for possible shortages. It is recommended that

the threads and all moving parts in the package be lubricated prior to

installation.

Do not discard packing materials until assembly is complete to insure

that no required parts are accidentally discarded. Assemble your bicycle

following the steps that pertain to your model.

Note: Your bicycle may be equipped with different style components than

the one illustrated.

Handlebars

Remove the protective cap from the stem wedge and loosen the stem

bolt using the 6mm Allen key. Some models may use a 13mm hexagonal

bolt. Place the handlebar stem into the head tube, observing the minimum

insertion mark on the handlebar stem and ensuring that all cables are free

of tangles. Check that the fork and the handlebar are facing forward, and

that they are properly aligned with the front wheel. Tighten the stem bolt.

Rotate the handlebar to the desired position and tighten the Stem Cap

Binder Bolts securely using a 5mm Allen key.

SINGLE SPEED & BMX

Includes 16” and 20” BMX Bikes

Assembly is the same for boy and girl’s bikes.

The handlebar must be inserted so that the minimum

insertion mark cannot be seen. Warning: Over-tightening

the stem bolt or headset assembly may cause damage to

the bicycle and/or injury to the rider.

Check your Brakes Do not ride the bicycle until the brakes are functioning properly. To test, apply the brakes while trying to push the bike forward to make sure they will stop the bicycle. Training Wheels ASSEMBLY Press each brake lever to make sure that there is no binding and that brake pads press hard enough on the rims to stop the bike. The brake pads should be adjusted so they are 1mm to 2mm away from the rim when the brakes are not applied.
