Urban Ryder™ uses a Quick Release Lever to lock the front wheel into the
fork dropouts (
Fig. 1.8
). Quick Release Levers are safe and convenient
when adjusted properly.
Before riding your bicycle you must understand
how they work and how to use them properly to prevent serious injury
or death from a fall.
Quick Release Levers use a cam ac on to clamp the front wheel in place.
Due to their adjustable nature, it is cri cal that you understand how they
work, their proper use, and how much force is needed to secure them
correctly.
