SET-UP STEP 2 STEP 1 STEP 3 STEP 4 PRE-RIDE CHECK
Inside the box, you’ll find a smaller box of parts, necessary tools,
documentation and manuals. Once the bike is assembled, but
before you ride, please read the owner’s manual.
First, locate the staples on the top of the box and carefully remove
them with a screwdriver. Use caution: the staples are sharp.
Push the hand flaps from the inside to the outside of the box. This
will make removing the bike easier.
Carefully lift the bike out of the box and set it onto the top of the box.
Remove the front wheel from the bike by carefully removing the zip
ties or Velcro. Then, remove all packaging from the wheel and set it
aside.
Remove all additional packaging from the bike, letting the handlebar
gently hang from the frame.
Carefully lift and rotate the bike, lowering it gently back into the box
with the fork overhanging the box side. The stem should be pointing
forward and the disc brake caliper should be on the left (non-
drivetrain) side of the bike.
