Seat and Handlebar Mounting Reflectors
First attach the reflector to the reflector bracket with the reflector screw, see the top
diagram. Next, remove the clamp screw and open the clamping reflector bracket.
Place clamping reflector bracket around the handlebar or seatpost. If the clamp is
too loose, insert a rubber spear inside of the clamp. Tighten the clamp screw to hold
reflector assembly in place, see the second diagram. Finally, adjust the reflector
assembly in place and ensure that it is upright and facing away from the bike.
Seatstay Mount Reflector Bracket Assembly
First insert one washer onto the hex bolt and insert hex bolt through the reflector
bracket and then through the seatstay bridge. Next, insert a second washer onto the
bolt and thread a hex nut onto the bolt behind the seatstay bridge. Tighten bolts until
snug, making sure the reflector is in an upright position. See diagram at the bottom
right.
RIDINg SAFELY
general Rules
When riding obey the same road laws as all other road vehicles, including giving way to pedestrians, and stopping
at red lights and stop signs.
For further information, contact the Road Traffic Authority, police department or Department of Motor Vehicles in
your State.
Ride predictably and in a straight line. Never ride against traffic.
Use correct hand signals to indicate turning or stopping.
Ride defensively. To other road users, you may be hard to see.
Concentrate on the path ahead. Avoid pot holes, gravel, wet road markings, oil, curbs, speed bumps, drain grates
and other obstacles.
Cross train tracks at a 90 degree angle or walk your bicycle across.
Expect the unexpected such as opening car doors or cars backing out of concealed driveways.
Be extra careful at intersections and when preparing to pass other vehicles.
Familiarize yourself with all the bicycle's features. Practice gear shifts, braking, and the use of toe clips and straps,
if fitted.
If you are wearing loose pants, use leg clips or elastic bands to prevent them from being caught in the chain or
gears. Wear proper riding attire and avoid wearing open toe shoes.
Don't carry packages or passengers that will interfere with your visibility or control of the bicycle. Don't use items
that may restrict your hearing.
Do not lock up the brakes. When braking, always apply the rear brake first, then the front. The front brake is more
powerful and if it is not correctly applied, you may lose control and fall.
Maintain a comfortable stopping distance from all other riders, vehicles and objects. Safe braking distances and
forces are subject to the prevailing weather conditions.
Use designated bicycle paths if possible.
This bicycle is designed for on-road use only. It is not intended to be used for stunt riding, jumping, carrying
passengers, or riding off-road. If used incorrectly, the rider risks damage to components, injury, or death.
