Parts In Exploded View
Carbon fiber parts may be broken because of
excessive locking force. It may generate high
risks and impact the warranty of product.
Please comply the maximum torque limitation
defined in the DARE specification. Moreover,
please use the correct torque wrench to lock
socket set bolts. In addition, commercially
available oils for assembly can be adopted to
increase part adherence in accordance with
actual situations.
To minimize air resistance, VSRu frame is an
internal cable routing model, which means
you must be more careful when assembling.
We highly recommend you complete the bike
fitting and assembly testing in advance.

1. Confirm the quantities of headtube spacers
3. Rear cable routing assembly
2. Cutting down the steerer tube
Make sure the exact cable length before assembly (especially mechanical routing), because VETOX is
also an internal cable routing handlebar. Therefore, it is recommended to set your riding position
data in advance that allows to cut your steerer tube length correctly and know the exact spacers you
need (10mm*2 and 5mm*1 spacers attached in the boxes). Below are 3 methods for your references:
1.Referring to the data of your previous bike
2.Consulting to bike fitting service
3.Pre-assembling the VSRu frame, fork, stem, handlebar, saddle and wheelset and adjust to the
proper STW.
After pre-assembling the headset, top cap, spacers and stem, marking the first line on the top of
the stem onto the steerer tube. Then mark the second line, 7~8mm lower than the first one, which
is a space preserved for tightened the top cap later. Align the second line and cut it off.
Thread the rear brake/ shifting cable from the rear of chain stay into the frame. Select the proper
cable-routing ports and hangers in terms of the gear shifting system.

4. Front cable routing assembly
Thread the brake hoses to the foam into the down tube of the frame to avoid the clacking noisy
sounds during riding.
For Di2 system, use F type of RS-910, which has its mount cap be able to fit on the downtube.
Also, install battery in with a J2 battery mount cover on it.

Put the down bearing (E6) first and thread the front brake cable through the inside fork to the
steerer tube. And then install the fork to the frame.
Be aware that the fork might be hit by the
headtube and scratched because of
over-rotating.

After installing the fork to the head tube, then install the headsets (E1-E5), spacers(D2-D3), and
stem (A1) by orders. (see more detail picture at step.6). Put the compression plug in the steerer
tube and screw the steerer top cap (B1). And then assemble the VETOX handlebar on the stem.
Through the all cable into the channel of headsets and spacers, put into the rear channel of stem
and throughout the hole of stem left and right ( left is front cable, right is rear cable)
Route the cables by following the picture shown below. (Front cable to the left and rear is right)

8. Finishing touches 9. Seat post assembly
After the cable routing, screw the stem rear cover (A2) and complete the final step of
assembly.
Apply Carbon friction grease (K3) to the surface of seat post to avoid clenching with the frame.
Put the hidden seat clamp (I2) into the frame first, then install the seat post. Use the 4-millimeter
Allen key to tighten it from the screw hole hidden below the top tube.
There are two seat post length attached base on the size of frame (see below table). If you want
to change to another size, please contact your local dealer).
VSRu seat post allows 73~74.5 degree of adjustable range. Also, there are an option of shorter
range version for pursuing more aerodynamic look.
Extension mount is attached for installing Garmin and Gopro on VETOX handlebar. It
also applies to general bike computer, camera, and light.
