Fitting the Wheel
Remove the black plastic front fork
protectors, which are part of the protective
packing material.
We recommend that you turn the bicycle
upside down, resting it on the handlebars
and saddle.
Note: We suggest you remove the battery, to make the
bike lighter, before turning it upside down. Also, you
may need to adjust the saddle to make it more stable.
Place the wheel between the forks, ensuring
that the brake disc is on the same side as
the Brake Caliper (coloured Red).
Then fasten the nuts and washers to each
side of the wheel spindle, tightening them
evenly. The wheel needs to spin freely, so
avoid over tightening.
Fitting the Wheel – Brake Assembly
With the cycle upside down, adjust the front
disc brake mechanism. Use an Allen key (or
similar), to release, adjust and retighten the
brake cable, until the wheel spins freely and
the brake operates effectively when applied.
If you are not confident to carry out these adjustments
yourself, we suggest you consult your local cycle
stockist.
