not attempt to move or unpack the box.

2. Reach in and pull the bicycle out of the box, carefully lifting the frame
by the toptube. Take extra care not to drop anything. Place it on a solid
working surface like a worktable or mat.
PRO TIP:
As you are building your bike, carefully remove the wrapping,
zip ties, or tape from the component or area of the bicycle you are
installing, one section a time. Make sure the components and frame do
not slip and fall.
