¥ The bottom of the Rollamajig should
line up approximately with the bottom
of the derailleur (as shown in diagram).
¥ If you are using Gore cables, cut the
liner back so it doesn’t touch the
pulley.
¥ Make sure the cable is fully seated in
the cable groove.
Re-install the chain, adding links from the kit to the existing chain. Create a chain
one link longer than what’s needed to stretch around the big cog and big ring and
through the rear derailleur simultaneously. (The chain supplied is sized such that if
the bike’s chain was sized correctly, joining the two will yield the correct length for
the sport utility bicycle.) Unless a special size was ordered, the supplied chain is
intended to mate with 8-, 7-, and 6-speed chains. Do not attempt to mate the chain with
other sizes. Additionally, not all brands of chain are compatible with each other. Only
a professional bicycle mechanic can make the call. If the bike’s chain is worn, or a
special size is needed, or the makes are incompatible, the appropriate chain can be
ordered from Xtracycle. Attempting to connect incompatible chains can
result in sudden chain breakage while riding and lead to a crash. Improper/inadequate
chain pin connections can also lead to chain separation under stress while riding and
lead to a crash.
Don t stop following directions now!!! Excellent FreeRadical performance
DEPENDS on proper strapping and tensioning of the FreeLoaders!
{1} Make sure that the FreeLoader is taut on the V-rack. Squeeze the rack
sides together (stand the V-rack on the floor oriented like a "C" while
pushing down on the top) and stretch the FreeLoader flaps tight, i.e.
towards the V-rack ends.
{2} Place the right V-rack in the right-side Uprights, making sure both
ends seat all the way. This takes practice, and is often best achieved by
guiding the front and rear simultaneously, with each hand grabbing an
Upright while feeding in the V-rack ends.

Adjust the brakes and derailleur as per the original bicycle’s owner’s manual or
component manufacturer’s assembly guide. Bolt the supplied kickstand to the
Kickstand Plate of the FreeRadical, aligning it such that, viewed from above,
the arm (NOT the mounting plate) is parallel to the Front Bridge when extended.
Make sure it doesn’t protrude into the spokes when stowed.
NOTE: With internally geared bikes and single-speeds, proper chain tension is
achieved by adjusting the fore/aft position of the entire FreeRadical in the
bicycle’s dropouts.
