components  are  functioning  properly.  However,  for  shipping  purposes  we  have  to  partially  disassemble  your  bicycle.  
Although this bicycle has been factory pre-assembled, some loosening may have occurred during shipping and handling.

Tools required for final assembly: 

 

 

Cutting-type pliers – for removal of packaging materials, including “zip-ties” 

 

5mm & 6mm hex wrenches – for tightening stem bolt & handlebar clamp 

 

15mm wrench or adjustable wrench – for tightening pedals 

 

Phillips head screwdriver – for tightening reflectors
