2. Installing the Front Wheel
Install the front wheel by
fi
rst inser ng the Quick Release rod into the wheel axel. There are 2 small springs on the Quick
Release rod that have di
ff
erent diameters on each end. Install the springs so that the ends with the larger diameter are next
to the Quick Release and the round nut (
Fig. 2.1
). Make sure the round black nut is on the disc side of the wheel and the
lock lever is on the opposite side (
Fig. 2.3
).
Tighten the round nut onto the rod so the rod threads are almost
fl
ush with the outside of the nut.
Be careful not to cross
the threads and ghten by hand only.
Place the Quick Release Lever in the open posi on. Have someone hold and li the bike by the handlebars to posi on the
front wheel into the forks. Make sure that you line up the brake disc with the brake calliper when inser ng the front wheel
axel into the fork drop outs (
Fig. 2.4
). Check to ensure that the axel has engaged all the way into the fork dropouts before
clamping.
