Q& COMMON ISSUES WITH BIKE INST LL TION:
Question: The front tyre is rubbing the mud guard what should I do?
Answer: Place bike upside down and loosen the metal bar [A] where it attaches to the mud guard.
The guard may have shifted when taken out from box.
Make sure it is aligned and retighten. Also ensure that the bolt for front wheel is tightly fastened [B].
Make sure that the mud guard is screwed onto the back side of the frame fork [C].
Question: The Brake pad is rubbing against the wheel what should I do?
Answer: Have bike standing up right. Try loosening the barrel on the handle bar [E] if that doesn’t
work loosen the nut [D] and let a couple of mm of cable slide through. Retighten and test if wheel
spins freely.
