Turn it anti-clockwise with the spanner provided as shown. This will open up the break pads so the wheel fits through. B Turn the bike upside down. Loosen the nuts on the front wheel axle by turning anti-clockwise - you need enough thread showing on the axle so the wheel slots easily onto the fork. Make sure the locking washers are on the outside of the fork as shown. TOOLS NEEDED SPANNER NUTS LOCKING WASHER AXLE FORK 6 IF YOU ARE EXPERIENCING ANY PROBLEMS PLEASE CALL 0161 813 1745 BEFORE RETURNING BIKE TO STORE C Locking washers must be positioned correctly in this step: Place the pointed side of the locking washer into the hole on the fork. Make sure the gap between the wheel and the fork is equal on both sides. Tighten the nut with the spanner provided. THE PIN ON THE LOCKING WASHER MUST BE PLACED IN THE HOLE. D Once the wheel is in place and tight, turn the bike the right way up and squeeze the brake arms together until there is a 1 - 1.5 mm gap betwen the brake pads and the rim. Both sides should be equal. Whilst holding in place you then need to pull the brake cable tight, and tighten the cable pinch bolt by turning clockwise using the spanner provided as shown. CORRECT BRAKE & WHEEL FITTING IS VERY IMPORTANT FOR YOUR SAFETY IF YOU HAVE ANY PROBLEMS THERE IS MORE INFORMATION IN THE USER MANUAL FAILURE TO CORRECTLY SET THE BRAKES MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY IF YOU ARE EXPERIENCING ANY PROBLEMS PLEASE CALL 0161 813 1745 BEFORE RETURNING BIKE TO STORE 7 .1 .2 When assembling the bike make sure the forks arepositioned the correct way.

IF YOU ARE EXPERIENCING ANY PROBLEMS PLEASE CALL 0161 813 1745 BEFORE RETURNING BIKE TO STORE 8 4.- FITTING THE STABILISERS TOOLS NEEDED SPANNER i Remove the outer nut and washer from each side of the back wheel by turning anti-clockwise using the spanner provided ii Place the bracket over the thread ensuring the tabs lock in the dropout, followed by the stabiliser, the washer and the nut. iii Tighten the nut by turning clockwise until it is finger tight. Repeat for the other side. iv Once both stabilisers are finger tight, ensure they are both around 5mm from the ground with the bike vertical. This is to ensure that if the bike goes over uneven ground the rear wheel won't be lifted of the ground causing it to lose traction. v Tighten both nuts by turning clockwise using the spanner provided IF YOU ARE EXPERIENCING ANY PROBLEMS PLEASE CALL 0161 813 1745 BEFORE RETURNING BIKE TO STORE 9 TOOLS NEEDED 5.- FITTING THE PEDALS SPANNER To fit the pedals correctly, you must position them the correct way around and screw them on in the right direction: i Stickers indicate the left and right pedal. If these have dropped off, look at the end of the thread where it is imprinted. ii The correct pedal needs to be attached to the matching side of the bike i.e. left pedal to left side and right pedal to right side. iii IMPORTANT! Pedals need screwing in opposite directions so they don't fall off in use. Left pedal is screwed in anti-clockwise / Right pedal is screwed in clockwise. Tighten pedals with spanner provided. i THREADS ii LEFT iii RIGHT L R L R SCREW ANTI CLOCKWISE SCREW CLOCKWISE PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU FIT THE CORRECT PEDAL TO THE CORRECT SIDE.
