BICYCLE ASSEMBLY GUIDE

Adjustable stems
Some bikes have stems that can be
adjusted to increase or decrease the
angle of the stem to a more desirable
position. Ensure the bolt securing the
angle is securely tightened as failure to do
so may cause loss of steering control.
Loosen the seat post clamp. If your bike
has a quick release lever rotate the quick
release clamp until it is fully open.
Quick
release levers operate with an adjusting
nut at one end, and a lever on a cam at
the other end. Always adjust the Quick
release clamp with the lever in the open
position, and by turning the nut (not the
lever).
If your bike has a has a nutted seat post
clamp, use a wrench (or allen key if
appropriate) to loosen the clamp.
Place the seat post into the frame and
slide it down to the desired height,
ensuring the minimum insertion mark
cannot be seen.
