Omega Assembly Instructions:
Step 1: remove staples from the top of the box to avoid damage to you hands and the bike,
and open the top flap
Step 2: lay the box on its side and slide out the bike. Lift the bike up and remove the packing
material. There will be several zip ties to remove. These can be cut off with heavy duty scissors
or diagonal cutters.
Tools, the charger and parts box will be included in the included box:

Step 3: Install the front fender:
● Remove bolt from back of fork
● Install bolt through light and fender, and attach securely. Position the fender as high up
as possible and tighten the bolts.

● Tighten the front bolt securely while holding the the nut in place:
● Secure the lower fender strut bolts on both sides (note: it may be easier to complete
this procedure after installing the front wheel). Please note the orientation of the
black spacer and washer:

Step 4: Install the front wheel:
● Remove the spacer from the front brake caliper. This may be black, red or yellow
● Remove the front thru axle with the included hex key. It will unscrew in the
counter-clockwise direction and can be slid out once the threads are disengaged:
● Lift the fork, place the wheel most of the way in the fork, then carefully line up the brake
rotor with the slot between the brake pads and mount the wheel fully into the fork.
● After installation, slide the thru axle into the fork and wheel and securely tighten the thru
axle.
Step 5: Install the Stem:
● First, remove the 5 mm allen bolt at the top of the fork.It holds the round top cap on,
which should be removed as well.
● Remove the cardboard spacer, leaving the black spacers in place.
● Loosen the two clamp bolts on the side of the stem (the part that connects the
handlebars to the fork)

● Place the stem onto the newly exposed fork.
● Peel back the rubber cover on the top of the stem, giving you access to the bolt.

●
● Using The Long end of your 5 mm Allen wrench, tighten the bolt until it feels snug
● With just two fingers attempt to rotate the spacers below the stem. You want the bolt
tight enough that you cannot turn the spacers with 2 fingers. This creates the proper
pressure on the bearings in the steering column. The goal here is to allow the
handlebars to turn freely but without play.
● Looking from above, rotate the stem if needed until it is straight in relation to the fork.
● Using an Allen wrench, tighten the two stem clamp bolts that you loosened in the
beginning. It is imperative that all adjustments to the top preload bolt are made
prior to tightening the stem bolts.
●Place your right thumb and index finger on the gap between the lowest black spacer and
the frame, so that you can touch both. With your left hand, engage the front (left) brake
and hold the lever down. Rock the bike back and forth, feeling for any movement with
your right hand. If there is movement, rotate the handlebars 90 degrees and repeat the
test; this removes the brake pads as a possible source of movement. If there is still

movement, loosen the two stem clamp bolts as directed above, tighten the top bolt a bit
more, tighten the stem clamp bolts and check again. Repeat until there is no movement.
Step 6: Install pedals:
● Note that the pedals have a left and right orientation. This will be designated by an “L”
and “R” on the end pedal axle.
● The left pedal is reverse threaded. It must be turned to the left to install. The right pedal
uses conventional threading, and is turned to the right to secure.
● Use the included 15mm wrench to tighten pedals securely to the crank arms
Step 7: Adjust seat height and secure using the quick release lever. Make sure the lever closes
firmly and the seat post is secure. The tension nut on the quick release lever can be adjusted by

turning clockwise if additional tension is needed.
Step 8: Power up and you’re ready to ride! Hold the power button for approximately 3 seconds
to power on the bike.
