INTRODUCTION

Thank you for choosing a Frog bike. We hope it will give you many hours of cycling 

pleasure. The following pages will help you fully understand your bike and how to look 

after it. They will provide you with the information you need to properly use, adjust, 

maintain and service your new bike, so you can get the most out of every ride. Please 

pay attention to any safety information – it’s there to help you avoid serious injury.

If you have not bought the bike from a stockist and it still needs to be assembled go 

to www.frogbikes.com/manual where you will need a separate guide to setting up 

your bike. It will tell you how to attach handlebars, front wheel and brakes, saddle 

and pedals.

If you encounter any issues with your bike that aren’t covered in this manual, please 

contact your nearest Frog Bikes stockist. As your number one resource, your stockist 

can answer questions, perform required maintenance and recommend the best 

equipment to complement your ride. A list of your nearest Frog bike stockists is 

available at www.frogbikes.com

IMPORTANT

This manual contains important safety, performance and service information. Please 

read it before you ride your new bike, and keep it for reference. 

Additional safety, performance and service information for specific components such 

as suspension or pedals on your bike, or for accessories such as helmets or lights 

that you purchase, may also be available. Make sure your stockist has given you all 

the literature that was included with your Frog bike or accessories. In case of a conflict 

between the instructions in this manual and information provided by a component 

manufacturer always follow the component manufacturer’s instructions. 

If you have any questions or do not understand something take responsibility for your 

safety and consult your stockist. 

NOTE: This manual is not intended as a comprehensive use, service, repair 

or maintenance manual. Please see your stockist for all service, repairs or 

maintenance. Your stockist may also be able to refer you to courses or books 

on bike use, service, repair or maintenance.
