Drum Brake Version: Find the bag containing the
handlebars. Also find the bag containing the brake cables
(with the derailleurs). These are the ones with the inner
cables installed. Squeeze the brake lever, and slide the
small barrel end into the hanging bracket on the lever.
Feed the inner cable down through the slot on the front
of the lever (you may have to turn the adjuster to line up
the slots).
Disc Brake Version: Find the bag containing the
handlebars. Also find the box containing the hydraulic
brakes. You will have to remove the cable brake levers
from the handlebars and install the hydraulic brake
levers. Note how the Grip-shift shifter is positioned on
the handlebars. Pull the rubber handlebar grip from the
end of the handlebar. If the rubber half-grip doesn’t
want to come off, lift the top edge of the rubber grip and
dribble a little water down inside (an old spoke or
something similar can help lift the grip and let the water
go a little deeper). Undo the shifter locking screw (top
picture) and gently pulling the shifter assembly from the
handlebars. Undo the brake lever clamp bolt and remove
the lever. Re-install the shifter and the (dry) rubber half-
grip. Push the rubber half-grip so it is flush with the end
of the handlebar, then slide the shifter up to it and
tighten the locking screw. Now fasten the hydraulic
brake lever onto the handlebar. NOTE: the brake levers
are handed. The correct lever will put the oil reservoir
(with the logo on the cover) facing away from the seat
and the rider. Loosen and remove the bolt of the brake
lever clamp with a 4mm Allen wrench. Place the
lever/clamp assembly onto the handle bars (the lever
clamp is in 2 parts, so it can be installed after the shifter
is in place.) and position brake lever so it is on the
forward side of the handlebar. Be sure to slide the lever
up close to the base of the shifter. Replace and tighten
the bolt to 1.7-2.26 Nm (15-20 In. lbs).
2.3a Fit front drum brake wheels
Note: if you have purchased disc brakes,
please refer section 2.3b
Note: If you have purchased the optional
quick-release kit, please refer to the
instructions for its installation in the QR pack.
Located in the drum brake pack are the drum
brake pins. These pins need to be fastened
onto the kingposts. They are provided with hi-
tensile bolts that appear to have paint on their
threads. This is threadlocking adhesive, and it
must not be removed. If you remove and
replace the drum pin bolts, they must be held
in place with Loctite 243 Threadlocker or
equivalent.
Put the bolt (with the washer under the head)
through the centre, elongated hole in the
kingpost brake mount, thread the drum brake
pin on the other side, and tighten gently. (The
pin should be on the outside of the kingpost).
This should be only just finger-tight, so you
are able to slide the pin in the elongated hole.
Do not make this bolt tight at this time; it will
need to be adjusted later.
