INSTALL THE PEDALS
Depending on the type, pedals are installed using
either a flat wrench or a hex key.
CAUTION: Make sure to install the pedals
correctly. The left and right pedals have
opposite threads and can damage the
cranks if installed on the wrong side.
When tightening, both pedal threads will
rotate forward toward the front of the
bicycle.
23.
Remove the pedals from their packaging and locate
the
“L”
and
“R”
markings.
“L”
= Left side of bike or
non drive side.
“R”
= Right side of bike or drive side.
24.
Insert the right
“R”
pedal on the right crank arm
(drive side, clockwise rotation).
25.
Insert the left
“L”
pedal into the left crank arm (non-
drive side, counter-clockwise rotation).
26. HEX KEY PEDALS
: Using the corresponding hex
key inserted from the inside of the crank arm, tighten
the pedal in place. When at the correct tension, the
tool leaves a noticeable impression in the palm of
your hand.
27. FLAT WRENCH PEDALS
: Using the flat wrench,
tighten the pedal in place. When at the correct
tension, the tool leaves a noticeable impression in
the palm of your hand.
INSTALL THE FRONT WHEEL
WARNING! A wheel attachment device
that is not properly secured can allow the
wheel to loosen or come off, suddenly
stop the wheel, decrease your control,
and cause you to fall, resulting in serious
personal injury.
For more information on removing and
installing wheels, please refer to the
Owner’s Manual.
28.
Lift the bicycle out of the packaging and place the
bicycle into a bicycle stand or lean it against a stable
surface to support the bicycle during assembly.
29.
Remove the front brake pad spacer from the caliper.
CAUTION: Do not pull the brake lever with
the wheel removed and without a brake
pad spacer installed.
