Step 5: Install the front wheel
The bike is shipped with a steel spacer installed in the fork dropouts to prevent damage
during shipment. Prior to installing the front wheel, this spacer must be removed by first
disassembling with the 18mm wrench and can be discarded.
A. Remove the nuts and washers from the front axle and set aside.
B. Align the wheel to the fork so that the fork dropouts rest on the axle. Ensure the fork is
fully seated on the axle, the wheel is centered on the fork, and the brake rotor is centered
in the caliper assembly.
C. Reinstall the washers and thread the nuts onto the axle by hand. Ensure the tab of the
hook washer is fully inserted into the hole on the fork before tightening axle nuts.
D. Fully tighten the nuts using the provided 15mm open-ended wrench. Confirm the nuts
are tightened to 25 Nm using a torque wrench.
