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 parts 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 ones 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 instead of an Allen key 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. Tighten stem cap bolt 1 (see picture) |
|
two turns, tighten stem cap bolt 2 two turns and so on. Repeat until |
|
handle bar is secure to the stem. See picture for a 4 or |
|
Also check that the stem binder bolts are tightened equally and securely. |
|
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. | 46 |
