Step 1: Put the seat/seat post assembly into the bike frame and tighten the quick release lever
(may come pre-assembled from factory).

frame.
Be sure the seat is parallel to the top of the frame.
Step 2: Put the rudder assembly into the bike frame.
•
Depress the two buttons at the top of the rudder assembly tube and slide the tube into the bike
frame, as shown, until the buttons appear and snap open again out the top of the frame.
Be careful not to pinch your fingers with the buttons.
The purpose of the buttons is to lock the rudder assembly in its UP position. See “Adjusting
the Rudder” later in this manual for a description of the two rudder positions.
