Some final pre-ride checks. 

Tighten the seatpost collar to the torque value indicated on the collar 

– typically 7 Nm.

Reflectors.

  Make  sure your  reflectors  are tight  and  in the  correct 

position. Your front reflector should point straight ahead, perpendicular 

to the ground. The rear reflector should point straight back. Gently 

pull the wheel reflectors toward the rim to ensure they are snug.

Twist Checks.

 4. Grab the front and back of the saddle and attempt 

to tilt it on the seatpost head. It should not move.

Attempt to rotate the handlebar forward and backward in the stem. If 

it moves, the stem faceplate bolts are not tight enough. Use the torque 

wrench and correct bit to torque the faceplate bolts to specification, 

using the same “X” pattern as before.
