ASSEMBLY

Front Wheel

Check the wheel hub before attaching in to the fork by rotating the threaded

axle. It should be smooth with no lateral movement. Insert the front wheel

into the fork dropouts. Tighten the wheel nuts using the appropriate 14mm

or 15mm wrench. Spin the wheel nuts using the appropriate 14mm or 15mm

wrench. Spin the wheel checking for trueness. Some bicycles have quick

release wheel axles, turn the adjusting nut so the locking lever is moved to the

closed position with a firm action. At the halfway closed position of the quick

release lever, you should start to feel some resistance to this motion. If the

quick release lever is moved to the closed position with no resistance,

clamping strength is insufficient. Move the quick release lever to the open

position, tighten the quick release adjusting nut, and return the quick release

lever to the closed position.

Correct Quick Release Axle Setting

1. Place bike upside down, resting on the seat and handlebars.

2. To set, turn the lever to the open position so that the curved part faces

away from the bicycle.

3. While holding the lever in one hand, tighten the adjusting nut until it

stops.

4. Pivot the lever towards the closed position. When the lever is halfway

closed, there must be firm resistance to turn it beyond that point. If

resistance is not firm, open the lever and tighten the adjusting nut in a

clockwise direction.

5. Continue to pivot the lever all the way to the closed position so that the
