Secure the handlebar.

Tighten the two steering stem screws under the handlebar using the 5mm end of the Y-wrench so they are firmly in place.

Tool required: 5mm Y-Wrench

Hex bolt torque spec: 5±0.5 N m

7 Install the Front Wheel

Attach the front wheel to the fork.

Remove the black fork protector from the bottom of the fork and discard it.

Insert the front wheel axle into the fork slots. Ensure the brake rotor is aligned to fit the front disc brake.

Install the washers (with the serrated side facing inward) and cap nuts on the outside of the fork. Tighten them with the 15mm wrench until they are secure.

The correct tire pressure is 50-80 psi.

Tool required: 15mm Wrench

Torque spec: 20-25 N m

Parts required: Cap and washer x2

11 Reinstall the LED Display

Reinstall the display.

Reposition the display into the handlebar housing. Be careful not to pinch the cables.

Tool required: 2.5mm Allen Key

Using the 2.5mm Allen key, reinstall the screw previously removed in step 3 from under the display, so the display sits flush within the handlebar housing.

Attach the front fender to the fork.

Using the 4mm end of the Y-wrench, remove the two screws fastened to the back of the fork.

Tool required: 4mm Y-Wrench

Reinsert the two screws through the holes at the end of the fender support bracket to secure them to the fork.

Use the 4mm end of the Y-wrench to remove the screw located on the top rear side of the fork.

Reinsert the screw through the fender's mounting bracket on the top of the fender and securely fasten it to the rear of the fork.

Tip: Ensure the fender is parallel to the wheel so it does not contact the wheel's rotation.

Torque spec: 5-6 N m

Torque spec: 5-6 N m

9 Install the Seat

Adjust seat height.

Remove the soft rubber cap located on the frame just below the seat post to reveal the seat clamp bolt.

Tool required: 5mm Y-Wrench

Using the 5mm end of the Y-wrench, loosen the seat clamp bolt. Adjust the seat post to your desired height. Once positioned, tighten the seat clamp bolt until it locks and replace the rubber cap into the frame.

Do not extend the seat post beyond the minimum insertion line indicated on the seat post.
