At Intense, we have one goal -
to provide the ride of your life //
Our team of designers, engineers and product experts are focused on
one thing every day: your experience on the bike. We build bikes that
are as thrilling to look at as they are to ride, and we build them for the
select few of you who understand the difference and refuse to settle for
anything else. From the early days of Intense, when founder Jeff Steber
worked alone in his garage to today, where a crew of talented people work
in a Temecula, CA factory, Intense has been a brand built on passion by
forward thinkers who, even today, love nothing more than to throw a leg
over a sweet bike and head out for a rip. We’re so glad you’ve joined us.
Welcome to Intense, enjoy your experience.
the tazer //
More than an eBike, think of the Tazer as an Intense bike that happens
to have an E-assist feature. Built with aggressive trail geometry, Jeff
Steber tuned kinematics and 29”/27.5” front and rear wheel sizes, this
bike delivers a unique ride for an eMTB that won’t feel cumbersome and
has a seamless pedal-to-power transition.

Preface //
Before you can get out there and rip up the trails,
we need to get your bike unpacked and built up.
This is a good chance for you to become familiar
with your bike and to ensure the performance and
ride characteristics of the Tazer is optimised for you.
Tools needed
• shock pump
• small ruler or measuring device
• torque wrench
• Intense Carbon Paste
Unboxing your tazer //
Careful attention has been given to the packaging of your Intense Tazer
to not only ensure that it arrives safely and undamaged, but also that
you are able to re-use the packaging for situations in which you need to
safely transport your bike.
1. Rest the box on the ground or stable surface
with the top side facing up.
2. Pull the aps and open the top lid.
3. Remove the INTENSE accessory box, which contains
your user manual, torque wrench, and shock pump.
4. Everything in the box is numbered. Remove th e inserts
in chronological order taking care not to rip or tear the
cardbard so that they can be reused in the future.
5. After removing the handlebar and control protector (#7), raise the
dropper post by activating the trigger located on the handlebar.
6. Mount the frame onto a bike stand using the seatpost as your
clamping surface. WARNING: Do not clamp onto any of the carbon
surfaces of the frame as this could severely damage the frame.
7. Continue by removing the remaining protectors from the bike.
Get charged //
The battery is not fully charged at the time of purchase, so before you start
building your Tazer, take a moment to unpack and charge the supplied
Shimano battery using its dedicated charger. Be sure to charge the
battery until it is fully charged. See page 18 for more information about
charging the battery.

Once all the protectors have been removed from the bike, we can begin
the process of mounting the components onto the frame.
Handlebar Installation
1. Spin the stem around so that the faceplate is facing forward.
2. Using a 4 mm allen key, remove the faceplate from the stem.
3. Making sure that all the cables are oriented properly, place
the handlebar into the stem and reinstall the faceplate.
With the handlebar centered, torque the faceplate bolts to
6 Nm / 54 in-lbs. NOTE: Take your time when installing the
faceplate bolts to prevent any type of cross threading.
p r o t i p
When installing the faceplate, always tighten the stem bolts in a cross
pattern (top left – bottom right, bottom left – Top right).
Mounting the Derailleur
1. Using a knife or scissors, carefully remove the bubble wrap
and zipties from the rear derailleur, chain, and B-screw.
2. With a 5mm allen key, mount the rear derailleur onto the
derailleur hanger being careful to avoid cross threading.
3. Using a torque wrench, tighten the derailleur
bolt to 8-10 Nm / 70-90 in-lbs.

Installing the rear wheel
1. Remove the brake pad spacers from the rear brake. Be sure
to keep this in a safe spot so it can be reused in the future.
2. Remove the rear axle.
3. Grab the rear wheel and carefully remove the disc
guard. Check the disc guard to make sure the end
cap is not accidentally removed with the guard.
4. Pull the derailleur back and slide the rear wheel
into the rear triangle of the bike, setting the chain
on the smallest gear of the cassette.
5. From the non-drive side, slide the axle through the dropout and
wheel assembly, threading it by hand in a clockwise direction.
6. Using a 5mm allen key from the drive side, tighten the axle in
a counter clockwise direction. Torque to 11 Nm / 100 in-lbs.
7. From the non-drive side, tighten the cone spacer with
a 5mm allen key. Torque to 14 Nm / 125 in-lbs.
Installing the front wheel
1. Grab the front wheel and carefully remove the disc guard.
2. Remove the front axle as well as the pad spacer from the front
brake. Be sure to keep the pad spacer in a safe spot for future use.
3. With the rotor side of the wheel on the non-drive side
of the bike, line the brake caliper up with the disc rotor
carefuly sliding the front wheel between the fork legs.
4. Slide the axle through the fork dropout and wheel assembly
and tighten by turning in a clockwise direction. NOTE: To
prevent accidental opening of the quick release lever while
riding, always lock the lever in an upward direction (parallel
to the fork leg) or horizontally towards the rear of the bike.
Quick Component Check
All INTENSE bicycles are delivered "Ride Ready", meaning you can
expect the bikes to come with the brakes and drivetrain all properly
adjusted. However, to ensure that nothing happened during shipping,
we recommend that you check that all the components are operating
correctly before heading out to the trail.
1. One wheel at a time, spin the wheels to make sure there
is no rotor rub from the brake pads. Give the brakes a
squeeze to make sure everything feels alright.
2. Check that the derailleur is adjusted properly by
running up and down the gears making sure that
everything is functioning nice and smoothly.
setting preload on the headset
and tightening the stem
1. Remove the bike from the stand and place it onto the ground.
2. Check that front wheel is inline with the stem.
PRO TIP: You can line up the back of the handlebar with
the front of the fork crown to help with alignment.
3. Set the preload on the headset by tightening
the bolt in the center cap.
4. Tighten stem bolts with 5mm allen key
and torque to 8 Nm / 70 in-lbs.
connecting the system //
Now that your bike is built, we need to plug the electric wire that can be
found coming out of the down tube (drive side) into the back of the cycling
computer as shown below.
seat post
When inserting the seat post, apply a liberal coat carbon paste and
gently slide it into the seat tube. With a minimum seat post insertion of
4" (100mm), tighten seat post clamp to 5 Nm / 45 in-lbs. NOTE: Over
tightening the seat post clamp will inhibit the movement of the seat post
and potentially damage seat post and/or seat tube.
connecting the electric wire
Use the Shimano original tool (TL-EW02) for installation and removal of
the electric wire. Set so that the projection on the connector is aligned
with the groove on the narrow end of the tool.
When installing the electric wire, do not forcibly bend the connector. It
may result in a poor contact. When connecting the electric wire, push it
in until it clicks in place.

shock setup //
Proper set up and tuning can vary from shock to shock. Please consult
the Fox manual included with your bike for complete information about
set up, tuning and general maintenance or visit www.foxracingshox.com
setting the sag //
1. Remove fork and shock air caps and be sure you have a
shock pump and a small ruler or measuring device handy.
2. Go ahead and hop on the bike. Be sure to place
all your weight on the seat with the dropper in the
up position and both hands on the grips.
3. Give the bike 5-6 moderate bounces and
sit back down on the saddle.
4. Now have your friend slide both the rear shock and the front fork
o-rings down against the seal lip of the damper bodys (Image #1).
5. Step off the bike nice and easy. Be sure to not compress
the suspension after the o-rings have been set.
P r o T i p
Here is where having a friend helps. Have them straddle the front
wheel and pull the handle bars in a upward direction as to not allow the
suspension to compress as you get off (Image #4).
6. Using your measuring device, measure the gap between
the suspension seal lip and the o-ring. Using the chart
on the following page will tell you if you need more air
pressure or less air pressure (Images #2, #3).
7. Adjust air pressure with your shock pump accordingly (Image #5).
8. Re-visit steps 2-6 until your desired sag
measurement have been reached.
9. Install valve caps.

Handling and charging the battery
• Charging can be carried out at any time regardless of the amount of
charge remaining, but you should charge the battery until it is fully charged
• Be sure to use the dedicated charger when recharging the battery.
• The battery is not fully charged at the time of purchase. Before
riding, be sure to charge the battery until it is fully charged.
• If the battery has become fully spent, charge it as soon as possible. If you
leave the battery without charging, it will cause the battery to deteriorate.
• If the bicycle will not be ridden over an extended period of time,
store it away with approximately 70% battery capacity remaining. In
addition, take care not to let the battery become completely empty
by charging it every 6 months.
• The use of a genuine Shimano battery is recommended. Connect
to E-TUBE PROJECT and click [Connection check] to conrm
whether the battery in use is a genuine Shimano battery. If using a
battery from another manufacturer, make sure to carefully read the
instruction manual for the battery before use.

general service and care //
You have purchased a high performance bicycle
which requires a certain level of service and
maintenance to sustain the level of performance
your frame was designed around. Proper care will
also ensure the bike is safe to ride at all levels. It
is important to read and understand the carbon
care information as well as follow the maintenance
schedule and inspect your bicycle before each ride.
These will not only help to limit or avoid costly
repairs but will also help to avoid injury due to
service neglect and component failure.
carbon care //
Intense Cycles employs advanced composite techniques and materials
in our frames which do require a certain level of care and maintenance
to ensure a safe experience at the high level of performance each frame
is designed around. Not following these guidelines will decrease the level
of performance and possibly cause injury or death.
• Use a soft cloth with warm soapy water to clean the carbon surfaces.
Do not use high pressure washers, abrasive cloths or cleaners.
• Be sure all frame surfaces in contact with cables are protected.
Cable housing rubbing on carbon can wear over time.
• Be sure brake levers, handle bar ends and the fork crown do not
contact the frame at full rotation.
• Never clamp any part of a carbon frame in a bike stand or car rack.
• Always inspect your frame if you experience any chain suck.
• Always inspect your frame in full after a crash to be sure there is
no damage. Look for cracks, dents or loose bers. If you discover
damage in any degree it’s best to have your frame inspected by a
qualied Intense Cycles dealer. Any direct impact to the frame can
cause serious structural damage.
• Use high grade waterproof grease on seat post, BB and head set
bearing contact areas with the carbon.
• Never ream or face a carbon frame.
• Be sure to follow all recommended torque settings.
• Use only genuine replacement parts for safety-critical components.
* The above maintenance schedule is only a guideline. Refer to component manufactuter for specic instruction on maintaining their parts.
