Fitting the front wheel
The front wheel required occasional checks to make sure it is securely and tightly fitted in the forks and is not too
loose.
What to look at during the front wheel fitment?
The lever should be tight up properly to the end of its travel. If you feel that the lever is too soft during locking,
you need to hold the locking nut on the other end of the axle and turn the lever around to set up as required. The
pictures below show correct and incorrect way of fitting the front wheel.
