Headset
To check if the headset is loose or tight
1. Apply the front brake firmly while you rock the bicycle forward and backward.
2. With the front wheel off the ground, slowly rotate the fork and handlebar to the right
and left.
If the headset bearings rock in the frame or do not turn smoothly, do not ride the
bicycle; take the bike to your dealer for service.
Adjustment of headset bearings requires special tools and training. These services
should only be performed by your dealer.
Crankset
To check the bottom bracket bearing adjustment
1. Lift the chain from the chainrings.
2. Rotate the crank so that one of the arms is parallel to the seat tube.
3. Put one hand on the crank arm and one hand on the seat tube, and attempt to move
the crank arm laterally toward and away from the seat tube.
4. Spin the cranks.
If the crank feels or sounds loose, or if the motion stops abruptly or you hear a grinding
noise coming from the bearings, the bearings need to be adjusted or re-greased by
your dealer.
Crank arms
Some bicycles offer adjustable crankarm length. To change the crank length, remove
the pedals and install them into the second set of holes. Tighten by following the
instructions for Pedals.
Pedals
The left pedal is left-hand threaded, while the right pedal is right-hand (normal)
threaded. Tighten pedals into the crankarms to 350-380 lb•in (40.2-42.9 N•m).
Adjustment of pedal bearings requires special tools and training. These services should
only be performed by your dealer.
Bottom bracket
Adjustment of bottom bracket bearings requires special tools and training. These
services should only be performed by your dealer.
Chain
To adjust the chain tension on a single speed bike
1. In small increments, loosen the rear wheel axle nuts on alternate sides of the wheel.
If you fully loosen one side before loosening the other, you may cause the bearings to come out of adjustment.
2. Slide the wheel to re-tension the chain, and center the wheel in the frame.
Some models have a chain tensioning device which helps position the wheel.
3. Complete the wheel installation.
