handlebars
The handlebars on the Dillenger Cheetah are adjustable for
height and foldable to reduce the stored size.
Depending on how the bikes were packed the bike may arrive
without the handlebar folding joint inserted into the frame.
Fitting it is very simple. When in the upright position, the
tightening bolt for the folding joint is hidden. To tighten the
bolt, the handlebars have to be folded down. The angle at
which the joint sits is designed to be on an angle. This is so that
when folded, the handlebars sit in line with the frame, rather
than across to save space.
The height of the handlebar is easily adju
sted. To change the height, open the quick-release clamp;
change the handlebars to the desired height, then close the
quick-release clamp to set the desired height.
Fault
Solution
My handlebars just
spin and do not turn
the front wheel
Fold the handlebars down and tighten the Allen bolt, this locks
the handlebars to the front forks.
My handlebars are
loose and wobbly
Check the height adjusting quick release clamp is tight. To do
this open the quick release, tighten the round bolt by one turn,
then close the clamp again. Repeat if one turn is not enough.
Pedals
Pay very close attention when installing the pedals as each
pedal only fits on one side.
●
Stamped into the end of each pedal is either an “L” or an
“R”. The threads on one side are opposite to the other to
prevent them coming undone when riding.
●
The pedal marked “R” goes on the right hand side of the
bike (this is the same as your right hand side if you were
riding the bike).
●
The right hand pedal goes in CLOCKWISE like a normal
screw.
●
The left hand pedal has to be done up ANTI-CLOCKWISE.
●
Thread the pedals in as far as you can by hand before using
a spanner.
