To attach the left inboard rod end on the
aluminum steering linkage to the head tube
bracket, remove the nut from the rod end stud
(Fig. 3-4a)
, insert the nut into the slot on the
back side of the bracket
(Fig. 3-4b)
, push the
rod end stud into the hole to contact the nut, and
screw the stud in tight using the 12 mm open
end wrench
(Fig. 3-4c)
. Repeat the procedure to
attach the right front wheel
(Fig. 3-5a)
. When the
front wheels are attached, the front end should
appear as shown
(Fig. 3-5b)
.
Now that the front wheels are installed, you are ready to unfold the head tube and fix it
upright. This will require the 2 cap screws (male, black with 6 mm hex head) and 2
barrel nuts (female, silver with 5 mm hex head)
(Fig. 3-6a)
, located in the plastic bag
found in the small box
(the other screws in the bag are for the rear rack and the bottle
cage). Insert the barrel nuts into the left side of both bolt holes. Raise the head tube
into the full upright position
(Fig. 3-6b,c)
. Insert the short cap screw in the front middle
bolt hole and the long cap screw in the rear top bolt hole of the joint
(Fig. 3-6c)
. Using
the 5 mm hex wrench for the female side (left side) and the 6 mm hex wrench for the
male side (right side), securely tighten all three of the screws in the joint
(Fig. 3-7)
