Front Fender
Some bike models come with a front
fender. When unfolding it must be moved
from the down position to the up position.
1. Rotate the fender to the up position,
slide it in toward fork, rotate screw
clockwise to lock in place (Fig. 27).
Attaching the Front Wheel
Once the bicycle frame is in the
unfolded position with the frame quick
release locked, you will need to attach
the front wheel. The front wheel on your
bicycle is attached via the CLIX
®
Wheel
Release System. For more information
on CLIX
®
please visit www.CLIXqr.com.
1. Make sure the CLIX quick release is
in the open position. (Fig. 28.a)
2. Lower your fork onto the wheel hub
so that the fork dropouts are resting
on the hub axle. (Fig. 28.b). NOTE:
For forks with angled dropouts (Fig.
31.a): The dropouts are designed to
slide past the cup and adjusting nut
and click onto the hub axle.
UNFOLDING YOUR MONTAGUE BICYCLE
CONTINUED
Improper installation or improper use
of the quick release system can allow

DO NOT change or swap wheels
between different bicycles. Your
CLIX quick release wheel may not
engage another bicycle’s fork cor-
rectly, causing an accident. Your CLIX
quick release wheel is not compatible
with all forks.
DO NOT spin the CLIX quick release
lever to secure the wheel. Spinning the
lever in the open position (like a wing
nut) will not fully secure the wheel to
the bike, even if it appears to be tight.
