2.2 Unpacking
First of all, open the box, unwrap and lay out the pieces, inspecting for any damage that may have occurred
during shipping.
The black square of fabric-covered rubber is not a piece of packing. Do not throw it away!!
You should have all the items shown below, as well as any accessories you have ordered.
Assembling your trike is quite simple, even if you have done little bicycle assembly/work before. If you’re
uncertain about the work, any decent bike shop will be able to follow these instructions to assemble it for you.
It will take you a under an hour to put your trike together, but don’t be tempted to rush through;
Your trike is secured in the box using several cable ties (zip-ties) which will have to be cut with a knife,
scissors, or snips; be careful not to cut through the parts or to mark the paintwork. Have a good look at the
various packages and familiarize yourself with the various parts. In addition to the main components shown
below, there are other small packages of parts. Don’t open them just yet; leave them sealed until you need
them. (Please note, tyres may be supplied only partially inflated for shipping. Please inflate tires to correct
pressure before sitting on your trike. The correct inflation pressures are printed on the tire sidewalls.)
