2.2 Unpacking
First of all, open the box, unwrap and lay out
the pieces, inspecting for any damage that may
have occurred during shipping.
The black square of fabric-covered rubber
is not a piece of packaging. Do not throw it
away!!
You should have all the items shown on this
page, as well as any accessories you have
ordered.
Assembling your trike is quite simple, even
if you have done little bicycle assembly/work
before. If you’re uncertain about the work,
any good bike shop will be able to follow these
instructions to assemble it for you.
It will take you an hour or two to put your trike
together, but don’t be tempted to rush through.
Your trike is secured in the box using several
cable ties (zip-ties) which will have to be cut
with a knife, scissors, or snips; be careful not to
cut through the parts or to mark the paintwork.
Have a good look at the various packages and
familiarize yourself with the various parts. In
addition to the main components shown
below, there are other small packages of parts.
Don’t open them just yet; leave them sealed
until you need them.
(Please note, tyres may be supplied only
partially inflated for shipping. Please inflate
tires to correct pressure before sitting on
your trike. The correct inflation pressures are
printed on the tire sidewalls.)
