GETTING STARTED
HANDLEBAR ASSEMBLY
Remove all protective packaging from the handlebar assembly, if not already done.
Turn the fork of the bicycle to face forward. (Note that "forward" means that the wheel
mounting slots are in the furthest forward position, so the wheel axle will be in front of
the fork when assembled.) Look for removable decal and information card on the fork
showing the proper direction. (A)
If your model comes equipped with gears and/or handbrakes, you will need to be sure
that the brake cables and shift cables are properly routed. Position the handlebar
assembly as if you were going to install it and take a look at the cables. They should
run in a smooth arc from the shifter or brake lever to the front brakes or cable stop on
the frame. If they are twisted or kinked, the shifting and braking will not work. Rotate
the handlebars around until the cables are taking the smoothest route. (D)
Loosen the center bolt (B) enough so that the wedge and stem can slide into the fork
steer tube. Lower the stem until the mark that says "minimum insertion" is no longer
visible. Tighten the stem center bolt so that the handlebar assembly is in line with the
fork. If needed, you can recheck this after the front wheel is installed and re-adjust.
Check handlebar stem clamp bolt (C) to be sure they are properly tightened and
handlebar cannot move. The angle of the handlebar can be adjusted. To adjust: loosen
all of the handlebar stem clamping bolts and rotate the handlebar to the desired
angle. Be sure that the handlebar stays centered in the stem. Re-tighten the bolts a
little at a time, being sure that the gap between the stem cap and stem stays even.
Repeat tightening each bolt a little bit until handlebar is secure.
Open the carton from the top and carfully remove the bicycle. Now remove all ties and
protective wrapping making note of parts as you go along. Do not discard packing
material until assembly is complete to ensure no required parts are accidentally
discarded.

rotate with no brake shoe contact.
Brake is correctly adjusted when:
• Both brake pads move away from the rim equally when the brake is released.
• The brake pads do not drag on the rim when the brake is open.
• When the brake is applied, the brake pads contact the rim before the brake
lever reaches about 1/3 of the way to the handlebar
re-inspect the brake pads, centering, and brake lever travel. If the brake pads are no
longer square to the rim, repeat brake pad adjustments. Be sure that brake pads return
to
the rim on either side. Readjust as needed. Check that the brake cable tension allows
the brake lever about 1/3 of the travel before the brake pads contact the rim. If the
cablehas stretched or slipped, readjust brake cable tension by loosening cable anchor
bolt and pulling more cable through the anchor or use brake adjustment barrels for
e cable tension.

FRONT DERAILLEUR
Shi both shiers to the smallest number indicated and place the chain on the
corresponding cog and chainring. Disconnect the front derailleur cable from the cable
anchor bolt. Check the posion of the front derailleur; it should be parallel with the outer
chainring and clear the largest chainring by 1-3mm whenfully engaged. With the chain on
the smallest chainring in front and the largest cog in back, adjust the Low limit screw so
the chain is centered in teh front derailleur cage. Reconnect the cable, pull any slack out,
and ghten the anchor bolt securely. Shi the font shier to the largest chainring. If the
chain does not go onto the largest chainring, turn the high limit screw in 1/4 turn
increments counter-clockwise unl the chain engages the largest chainring. If the chain
falls off the largest chainring, and into the pedals, adjust the HIGH limit screw in 1/4 turn
increments clockwise unl the chain no longer falls off. Shi through every gear, using the
barrel adjusters to fine tune each transion. The barrel adjuster for the front derailleur is
located on the front shier where the cable comes out of the shier. Clockwise loosens
the cable tension and directs the chain closer to the frame, while counter-clockwise
ghtens the cable tension and directs the chain away from the frame.
