CORRECT FRAME SIZE<br />

When selecting a new bicycle, frame size is very important.<br />

Most full-sized bicycles come in a range of frame sizes. These<br />

sizes usually refer to the distance between the center of the<br />

bottom bracket and the top of the frame seat tube.<br />

The above chart and diagram will help you find the correct<br />

frame size. Rider leg length should be measured from the inseam.<br />

WARNING: For riding safety and comfort, there should be no less than 1" to 2" of<br />

clearance between the intended rider and the top tube of the bicycle frame.<br />

The ideal clearance will vary based on rider preference. These basic rules are in place to<br />

make straddling the frame when off the saddle easier and safer.<br />

When measuring the fit of the bicycle, make sure you have both feet flat on the ground. It is<br />

okay for women to use a men's bike to determine proper fit.<br />

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS<br />

Your new bicycle was assembled and tuned in the factory<br />

and then partially disassembled for shipping. You may have<br />

purchased the bicycle already fully assembled and ready to<br />

ride or in the shipping carton in the partially disassembled<br />

form. The following instructions will enable you to prepare<br />

your bicycle for years of riding enjoyment.<br />

WARNING: We recommend that you consult a bicycle<br />

technician if you have doubts or concerns about your ability<br />

to properly assembly, repair, or maintain your bicycle.<br />

GETTING STARTED<br />

Open the carton from the top and remove the bicycle. Remove the straps and protective<br />

wrapping. Inspect the bicycle and all accessories and parts for damaged or missing parts. It<br />

is recommended that the threads be lubricated prior to installation. Do not discard packing<br />

materials until assembly is complete to insure that no required parts are accidentally<br />

discarded. Assemble your bicycle following the steps that pertain to your model.<br />

Handlebars<br />

Remove the bubble bag from the handlebar. Place the handlebar stem into the top of the<br />

handle tube, ensuring that all cables are free of tangles. Tighten the stem bolt observing the<br />

minimum insertion mark and checking that the forks and the handlebars are facing<br />

forward.<br />

<strong>Tool</strong>s Required: Inner Hex Wrench (not included)<br />

Serial Number<br />

<strong>Tool</strong>s Required:<br />

- Philips head screw driver<br />

- 4mm 5mm 6mm & 8mm Allen keys<br />

- Adjustable wrench or a 9mm, 10mm,<br />

14mm & 15mm open and box end<br />

wrenches<br />

- A pair of pliers with cable cutting ability


WARNING: Over tightening the stem bolt or headset assembly may cause damage to<br />

the bicycle and/or injury to the rider.<br />

If the stem is not inserted to at least the " Minimum Insertion" mark, it is possible to overtighten<br />

the stem bolt and damage the fork steering tube. This could result in unsafe<br />

conditions and an injury risk to the rider. Check steering tightness prior to riding by<br />

straddling the front wheel and turning the handlebar. If you can turn it without the front<br />

wheel turning, the stem is too loose. Re-align the handlebar with the front wheel and retighten<br />

the stem bolt.<br />

Seat<br />

Insert the seat assembly into the frame of the bicycle and adjust the seat to the desired<br />

height. The seat post must be inserted to at least the " Minimum Insertion" line marked on<br />

the seat post. Move the quick release lever to the closed position. You should feel<br />

considerable resistance while moving the lever. If not, re-open and re-tighten the lever, then<br />

move it to the closed position so it is in line with the frame. Position the top of the seat<br />

parallel with the ground. Push the front of the seat up and down to firmly mesh the serrations<br />

together. The serrations must mesh completely together to insure a stable riding position.<br />

Check for tightness by twisting the seat from side to side, and from front to back. If the seat<br />

moves at the seat clamp or quick release, reposition and re-tighten the appropriate<br />

clamping mechanism.<br />

Pedals<br />

Start each pedal spindle by hand to avoid stripping the threads, then tighten with a 15mm<br />

narrow open-ended wrench. It is very important that you check the crank set for correct<br />

adjustment and tightness before riding your bicycle. The new crank may become loose with<br />

initial use. Once the pedals have been attached, check that the crank arm rotates smoothly<br />

and that there is no lateral movement.<br />

WARNING: Attachment of an incorrect pedal into a crank arm will cause irreparable<br />

damage.<br />

Final Check<br />

All other parts like front wheel, front disc brakes, headlights etc. were assembled by the<br />

factory; no other assembly needed.<br />

Tire Pressure: Check the tire pressure and inflate to the range recommended on the tire<br />

sidewalls.<br />

WARNING: Before riding, ensure all nuts, bolts and fittings on the bicycle have been<br />

correctly tightened.<br />

GENERAL SAFETY RULES<br />

· Bicyclists are expected to obey the same laws as all other road vehicles. These include<br />

giving way to pedestrians and stopping at red lights and stop signs. For further information,<br />

contact the Department of Transportation in your State.<br />

· Ride in a predictable manner. Always ride with traffic.<br />

· Always use hand signals to indicate turning and stopping.<br />

· Ride defensively. To other road users, you may be hard to see.<br />

· Concentrate on what's ahead. Avoid pot holes, loose gravel, wet road markings, oil, curbs,<br />

speed bumps, drainage grates and other obstacles if at all possible.<br />

· Cross train tracks at a 90-degree angle or walk your bicycle across.<br />

· Expect the unexpected, such as opening car doors or cars backing out of concealed<br />

driveways.<br />

· Be extra careful at intersections and when attempting to pass other vehicles.<br />

· Familiarize yourself with all of the bicycle's features. Practice gear shifts, braking, and the<br />

use of toe clips and straps, if fitted.<br />

· Wear proper riding attire and avoid open toe shoes. When wearing loose pants, use leg<br />

clips or elastic bands to prevent them from being caught in the chain.<br />

· Do not carry packages or passengers that will interfere with your visibility or diminish<br />

control of the bicycle.<br />

· Do not use items that may restrict your hearing.<br />

· When braking, always apply the rear brake first, then the front. The front brake is more<br />

powerful and if it is not correctly applied, you may lose control. Never lock up the brakes.<br />

· Maintain a safe stopping distance from all other riders, vehicles, and objects. Safe braking<br />

Distances are subject to the prevailing weather conditions.<br />

Wet Weather Riding<br />

CAUTION: Riding in wet weather is not recommended. Follow these precautions:<br />

· Brake earlier and provide yourself with a longer stopping distance.<br />

· Decrease your riding speed, avoid sudden braking and take corners with additional<br />

caution.<br />

· Wear reflective clothing and use safety lights for greater visibility when riding.<br />

· Take extra care around potholes and slippery surfaces, such as line markings and train<br />

tracks.<br />

Riding At Night<br />

CAUTION: Ride at night only when necessary. Follow these precautions:<br />

· Ensure the bicycle is equipped with a full set of clean, correctly positioned reflectors.<br />

· Use properly functioning lights, with a white headlight and a red taillight.<br />

· If the lights are battery powered, make sure the batteries are well charged.<br />

· Certain taillights have a flashing mechanism, which enhances visibility.<br />

· Always wear reflective or light colored clothing.<br />

· Slow down and use familiar roads with street lighting, whenever possible.<br />

Hill Technique<br />

· Gear down before a climb and continue gearing down as required to maintain pedaling<br />

speed.<br />

· If you reach the lowest gear and are struggling, stand up on your pedals. This will give you<br />

more power from each pedal revolution.<br />

· When descending, use the high gears to avoid rapid pedaling.<br />

· Do not exceed a comfortable speed; maintain control and take additional care.<br />

Cornering Technique<br />

· Brake slightly before cornering and prepare to lean your body into the corner.<br />

· Keep the inside pedal at the 12 o'clock position and slightly point the inside knee in the<br />

direction you are turning. Keep the other leg straight; don't pedal through fast or tight<br />

corners.<br />

MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS<br />

Every time you ride your bicycle, its condition changes. The more you ride, the more<br />

frequently maintenance will be required. We recommend you spend a little time on regular<br />

maintenance tasks. The following schedules are a useful guide. You should be able to<br />

accomplish most tasks. For additional assistance we recommend you see a bicycle<br />

technician.<br />

Brakes<br />

The correct adjustment and operation of your bicycle's brakes is extremely important for<br />

safe operation. Brakes should be checked for effective operation before every ride.<br />

Frequent checking for adjustments is necessary as the control cable will stretch and the<br />

brake pads will become worn with use.<br />

WARNING: Never ride a bicycle unless the brakes are functioning properly.<br />

4 OF 13


Inspection<br />

Brake levers should be checked for tightness at least every three months. They should be<br />

set in a comfortable position within easy reach of the rider's hands. Brake levers should be<br />

firmly affixed to the handlebar. The brake pads should be checked for correct positioning<br />

and tightness before every ride, and the various bolts and nuts at least every three months.<br />

Squeeze each brake lever to make sure they operate freely and that the brake pads press<br />

hard enough on the rims to stop the bike. There should be about 1mm2mm clearance<br />

between each pad and the rim when the brakes are not applied. The brake pads must be<br />

properly centered for maximum contact with the rim. Replace the brake pads if they are over<br />

worn (when the grooves or pattern can't be seen). The brake cable wires should be checked<br />

for kinks, rust, broken strands, or frayed ends. The outer casing should also be checked for<br />

kinks, stretched coils, and other damage. If the cables are damaged, they should be<br />

replaced.<br />

Cables and Cable Housing<br />

Cables and housing are one of the most over-looked parts on the bicycle. The first indication<br />

that your cables and housing need to be replaced is an increased amount of pressure<br />

needed to operate the brakes or shifters. Before every ride, check that there are no kinks or<br />

frays in the cables and housing. Also check that the housing is seated properly into each<br />

cable stop on the bicycle. It is recommended that the cables and housing be replaced at<br />

least every riding season to prolong the life of your bike.<br />

WARNING: Do not ride a bicycle that is not operating properly.<br />

Hub Bearing<br />

When checked, the hub bearings of either wheel will require adjustment if there is any play.<br />

1.Check to make sure locknuts are tight.<br />

2.To adjust, remove wheel from bicycle and loosen the locknut on one side of the hub while<br />

holding the bearing cone with a flat open-end wrench.<br />

3.Rotate the adjusting cone as needed to eliminate play.<br />

4.Re-tighten the locknut while holding the adjusting cone in position.<br />

5.Re-check that the wheel can turn freely without excessive play.<br />

Wheel Inspection<br />

It is important that wheels are kept in top condition. Properly maintaining your bicycle's<br />

wheels will help braking performance and stability when riding. Be aware of the following<br />

potential problems:<br />

Dirty or greasy rims<br />

CAUTION: Dirty or greasy rims can render your brakes ineffective. When cleaning, use<br />

a clean rag and wash with soapy water, rinse and air dry. Don't ride while the wheels are still<br />

wet. When lubricating your bicycle, do not get oil on the rim.<br />

Straight wheels<br />

Lift each wheel off the ground and spin them to see if they are straight and true. If wheels are<br />

not straight, they will need to be adjusted. This is difficult and is best left to a bicycle<br />

technician.<br />

Broken or loose spokes<br />

Check that all spokes are tight and that none are missing or damaged.<br />

CAUTION: Damaged spokes can cause serious injury.<br />

Loose hub bearings<br />

Lift each wheel off the ground and try to move the wheel from side to side.<br />

CAUTION: If there is movement between the axle and the hub, adjustment is<br />

required.<br />

5 OF 13


Axle nuts<br />

Check that they are tight before each ride.<br />

Quick release<br />

Check that they are set to a closed position and are properly tensioned before each ride.<br />

CAUTION: Maintain the closed position and the correct adjustment. Failure to do so<br />

may result in serious injury.<br />

Reflectors<br />

Your bicycle is supplied with one front, one rear, two wheel, and two pedal reflectors. These<br />

are an important safety and legal requirement. They should remain securely fitted and in<br />

good, clean condition at all times. Periodically, inspect all reflectors, brackets, and<br />

mounting hardware for signs of wear or damage. Replace immediately if damaged.<br />

Tires<br />

Tires must be maintained properly to ensure stability. Check the following areas:<br />

Inflation: Use a tire gauge to check that the tires are inflated to the pressure indicated on the<br />

tire sidewalls.<br />

CAUTION: If inflating tires with a service station pump, take care. Over-inflation can<br />

cause a tire blow out.<br />

Bead Seating: When inflating or refitting tire, make sure that the bead is properly seated in<br />

the rim.<br />

Tread: Check that the tread shows no signs of excessive wear or flat spots, and that there<br />

are no cuts or other damage.<br />

Valves: Make sure valve caps are fitted and that valves are free from dirt. Allowing dirt in the<br />

valve can lead to a flat tire, and serious injury.<br />

Recommended Tire Pressures<br />

The recommended pressure on the sidewall of the tire should match the following chart. Use<br />

this as a general guide.<br />

How To Fix a Flat Tire<br />

If you need to repair a tire, follow these steps:<br />

1.Remove the wheel from the bicycle.<br />

2.Deflate the tire completely through the valve. Loosen the tire bead by pushing it inward.<br />

3.Press one side of the tire bead up over the edge of the rim.<br />

Note: Use tire levers. Using a screwdriver may damage the rim.<br />

4.Remove the tube, leaving the tire on the rim.<br />

5.Patch the leaks using a tube repair kit, or replace the tube.<br />

Note: Make sure that the size of the replacement tube matches the size stated on the tire<br />

sidewall and that the valve is the correct type for your bicycle.<br />

6.Match the position of the leak in the tube with the tire to locate the possible cause and<br />

mark the location on the tire.<br />

7.Remove the tire completely and inspect it for nails, glass, etc. The inside of the rim should<br />

also be inspected to make sure there are no protruding spokes, rust or other potential<br />

causes. Replace the rim tape, which covers the spoke ends, if damaged.<br />

8.Remount one side of the tire onto the rim.<br />

9.Using a hand pump, inflate the tube just enough to give it some shape.<br />

10.Place the valve stem through the hole in the rim and work the tube into the tire. Note: Do<br />

not let the tube twist.<br />

11.Using your hands only, remount the other side of the tire by pushing the edge toward the<br />

center of the rim. Start on either side of the valve and work around the rim.<br />

12.Before the tire is completely mounted, push the valve up into the rim so that the tire sits<br />

squarely in position.<br />

13.Fit the rest of the tire, rolling the last, most difficult, part on with your thumbs. Note: Avoid<br />

using tire levers as these can puncture the tube or damage the tire.<br />

14.Check that the tube is not caught between the rim and the tire bead at ay point.<br />

15.Using a hand pump, inflate the tube until the tire begins to take shape. Check that the tire<br />

bead is evenly seated all the way around the rim. When properly seated, fully inflate the tire<br />

to the pressure marked on the sidewall. Use a tire gauge to check.<br />

16.Place the wheel into the frame checking that all gears, brakes and quick release levers<br />

are properly adjusted.<br />

Handlebar Stem<br />

The handlebar stem fits into the steering column. It is held firm<br />

by the action of a binder bolt and expander wedge which, when<br />

tightened, binds with the inside of the fork steerer tube.<br />

When removing the stem, loosen the stem bolt two or three<br />

turns, and then tap it to loosen the wedge inside.<br />

To lubricate, first wipe off any grease and grime. Next, apply a<br />

thin film of grease to the part, including the wedge that will be<br />

inserted into the frame. The height of the handlebar can be<br />

adjusted for comfort. The stem is marked with the words max.<br />

height/minimum insertion.<br />

WARNING: Never ride a bicycle if the stem has been raised so that the max.<br />

height/minimum insertion line can be seen.<br />

WARNING: Over tightening the stem bolt or headset assembly may cause damage to<br />

the bicycle and/or injury to the rider.<br />

When re-fitting the stem, make sure the handlebar is correctly aligned and tightened using<br />

the appropriate hex wrench.<br />

7 OF 13


Test the security of the handlebar within the stem, and the stem within the fork steerer tube,<br />

by clamping the front wheel between your knees and trying to move the handlebar up and<br />

down, and from side to side. The handlebar should not move when applying pressure.<br />

Handlebars<br />

The exact positioning of the handlebar is a matter of personal comfort. Make sure the<br />

handlebar and the fork are facing forward. If you need to replace the fork, please consult a<br />

qualified bicycle technician.<br />

WARNING: Never ride unless the handlebar clamping mechanism has been securely<br />

tightened.<br />

Headset Inspection<br />

The headset bearing adjustment should be checked every month. This is important because<br />

the headset locks the fork into the frame, and if loose, can cause damage or result in an<br />

accident. Stand over the frame top tube with both feet on the ground. Apply the front brake<br />

firmly and rock the bicycle back and forth. If you detect any looseness in the headset, it will<br />

need adjustment.<br />

Check that the headset is not overly tight by slowly rotating the fork to the right and left. If<br />

the fork tends to stick or bind at any point, the bearings are too tight.<br />

Note: If your bike is equipped with a threadless headset, please see a qualified bicycle<br />

technician for repairs and adjustments.<br />

Headset Adjustment<br />

Loosen the top locknut (or remove it completely) along with the reflector bracket, if fitted.<br />

Turn the adjusting cup clockwise until finger tight. Replace the lock washer and reflector<br />

bracket, and then re-tighten the lock nut using a suitable wrench.<br />

Note: Do not over tighten or bearing damage will occur.<br />

WARNING: Always make sure that the headset is properly<br />

adjusted and that the headset locknut is tight before riding.<br />

WARNING: Over tightening the stem bolt or headset<br />

assembly may cause damage to the bicycle and /or injury to the<br />

rider.<br />

Saddle and Seat Post<br />

Inspection:<br />

The seat fixing bolt and the seat post binder bolt should be<br />

checked for tightness and adjustment every month. On<br />

removing the seat post from the frame, you will notice a mark<br />

with words max. height/minimum insertion.<br />

WARNING: To avoid damage, the minimum insertion mark<br />

must be inside the frame.<br />

Lubrication:<br />

Remove the seat post from the frame and wipe off any grease,<br />

rust or dirt. Apply a thin film of new grease to the part that will be inserted into the frame. Reinsert,<br />

adjust, and tighten the seat post.<br />

Adjustment:<br />

The seat can be adjusted in height, angle, and distance from the handlebars to suit the<br />

individual rider. Saddle angle is a matter of personal preference but the most comfortable<br />

position will usually be found when the top of the seat is almost parallel to the ground, or<br />

slightly raised at the front.<br />

The saddle can also be adjusted by sliding it forward or back along the mounting rails.<br />

When fitting, position the seat post into the clamp under the seat and place it in the frame<br />

without tightening. Adjust it to the desired angle and position, and tighten the clamping<br />

Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction<br />

activities contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects<br />

or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:<br />

· Lead from lead-based paints<br />

· Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and arsenic and<br />

chromium from chemically-treated lumber.<br />

Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To<br />

reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with<br />

approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter<br />

out microscopic particles.<br />
