Swing the handlebar assembly into place by rotating upwards
(Fig.8)
.
Once the handlebars are in the upright position, lock into place by pressing the lever to the handlebar
mast
(Fig.9)
.
STEP 4: UNFOLD PEDALS
CHECK PEDAL TIGHTNESS
Unfold the pedals by simply applying pressure to pull them in the riding position.
You will hear a click when they lock into position.
(Fig. 10 & 11)
Pedals need to be checked for tightness.
Use the 15mm portion of the included multi-wrench, your own 15mm open end wrench, or adjustable wrench.
The right side pedal tightens clockwise
(Fig.12)
.
The left side pedal tightens counterclockwise
(Fig.13)
.
The pedals need to be tightened with a considerable amount of force so that they do not come lose.
Pedal side is determined when you sit on the bike.
Special Note:
For tightening all fasteners, please refer to Appendix D in the back of your owner’s manual
for all fastener torque specifications.
WARNING! Using the bike with the minimum insertion line on the lower portion of the seat post showing above the frame
could result in a failure of the seat post and/or the frame causing a loss of control with potential injury to rider. Such
failures are not covered by warranty as it is improper use of the product..
NOTE: Be sure to tighten both pedals with an adjustable wrench or 15mm open
end wrench to the recommended torque specification otherwise they will
unscrew while riding causing an unsafe condition for the rider and damaging
the threads in the crank.

ADJUST SEAT HEIGHT
To adjust the seat height, pull the quick release lever attached to the top of the seat tube outwards and adjust the seat to your
desired height.
Once you have adjusted the seat post to your desired height, lock it in place by closing the quick release lever against the clamp
(Fig.14)
.
The lever should require some force to close. If it closes too easily and does not hold the seat post in place, or if the effort to close
the clamp is
too great, adjust the clamping force by loosening or tightening the adjusting nut on the side opposite the lever.

• Your seat post is extra-long to fit a variety of rider sizes to the compact, folding frame design.
• Check the seat post closely. It has upper limit line marked on rear of seatpost (how low your seat can go), and lower limit line (how high your seat can go) marked on the front of the seatpost.
•
Lower Limit Line:
Never adjust the seat height so that the limit line at the lower end of the seat post is showing outside of the frame
(Fig.15).
• Upper Limit Line:
Always adjust the seat height so that the limit line at the upper end of the seat post is showing outside of the frame
(Fig.16).
