USER MANUAL - URBAN RYDER™
ASSEMBLE THE BIKE: FRONT WHEEL
To tighten the Quick Release and axel into the fork dropout, ensure the Quick
Release is in the open position with the lever parallel to the ground (the lever
should be at a 90° angle to the forks). With the lever in this position, tighten
the round nut finger tight. You will not be able to close the lever to the locked
position yet.
Next, loosen the nut approximately 3 quarter turns (counter clockwise) and lift
the lever upward to lock the wheel in place. The lever should be almost parallel
to the front fork when locked. If the tension is correct, the lever should close
tightly. When closing the lever it should leave a clear imprint in the palm of
your hand (the imprint may not be as deep as the hand model’s picture).
When the lever is locked in this position (parallel to the fork), it will not easily
be opened if it catches on any objects while riding your bike. To increase or
decrease the tension, open the lever and adjust the nut clockwise or counter
clockwise, 1/8 turn at a time. Repeat until the tension is sufficient. Less than
1/2 a turn on the adjusting nut can make the difference between safe clamping
force and unsafe clamping force.

3. Pedal Installation
Note:
“L” and “R” (“L”=left & “R”=right) is stamped on the threaded ends of the
pedals. The pedals have opposite thread directions and must go on a specific
side of the bike. Left and right side of the bike is determined by sitting on the
seat.
The
Left Pedal
has a reverse, non-standard thread and must be turned counter
clockwise to be screwed in.
The
Right Pedal
has a standard thread and must be turned clockwise to be threaded in.
Apply some grease to the pedal threads before attaching. Install the Right Pedal to the chain sprocket side of the bike and
the Left Pedal to the opposite side (same side as the battery key).
Start the pedal threads into the crank arm threads, by hand, at least 4 complete 360° turns to ensure the pedals are not
cross-threaded. Incorrect installation of the pedals is not covered under warranty. Complete by securely tightening with a
15mm wrench.
WARNING
:
Poorly tightened pedals can result in injury or death.
