Before your first ride...
•
Remove all remaining packaging on the bike
.
•
Check the operation of your front and rear brakes
by pushing the bike forward and operating the brake levers.
•
Check the tightness of all nuts and bolts
, especially the stem bolts and the bolts securing the brake levers and shifters to the handlebars.
•
Make sure the stem’s wedge bolt is tight.
Check that it is tightened properly by standing over the front wheel, holding it with your thighs, then
trying to turn the handlebars. If the handlebars can be turned independently of the wheel, the wedge bolt must be tightened further.
•
Make sure all frame quick release levers are tightened securely.
See the appendix to this guide discussing quick releases for more
information.
•
Make sure your front wheel is secure in the frame.
•
Make sure your tires are filled to the pressure recommended on the sidewall.
Over- or
under-inflated tires can blow off the rim and cause
a fall. We recommend using a bicycle pump with pressure gauge.
•
