How To Assemble This Tricycle
Assembly Instructions
Your trike has been pre-assembled. It requires only a few simple steps
to get it ready for your rst ride.
1. Remove the outside carton after cutting the nylon bands and
taking off the lid. Carefully remove your trike from the box and
gently rest it in place.
2. Remove all of the inside cardboard protection and bubble wrap.
3. Locate and set aside the kit box containing the pedals, this user’s
manual, and tool kit.
4. Install the front wheel by lining up the disc brake and place the fork
of the trike onto the front wheel.
5. Insert the quick release skewer & turn the skewer adjusting nut
clockwise to tighten it. Keep turning the adjusting nut until you see
or feel the nut contact the face of the dropout.

6. Next, try closing the lever. Your goal is to tighten the adjusting nut
enough so that the lever can be fully closed and closing it requires
signicant force. You want it to be hard to close, you want to see
a lever mark on your hand. If the lever is not hard to close, hold
the lever and further tighten the adjusting nut, try again. If not
possible to close or its very, very hard to close, hold the lever and
slightly loosen the adjusting nut, try again. Towards the end of
the adjustment process, quite small changes, like ½ turn, of the
adjusting nut are necessary. Your goal is to tighten the adjusting
nut enough so that the lever can be closed but requires signicant
force to close. You want it to be hard to close, you want to see a
mark on your hand.
7. Also, be sure the movement of the lever isn’t restricted by contact
with the fork.
8. All wheels may need to be trued using a spoke key.

The Seat
Make sure that the seat is tight enough so that you can’t
twist it out of alignment. Pull the seat clamp handle away
from the seat post and slide the seat up to down to adjust
it. Move the clamp handle inward toward the seat post so
it is held tight by the clamp.
This should require a fair amount of force to ensure the
seat post is held tight.
Turning the bolt clockwise will increase the clamping force
and counter clockwise will decrease the clamping force.
Make sure the seat is not set with the vertical maximum
height marks above the clamp.

Use a 15mm spanner to attach and tighten the pedals
remember to grease the pedal thread rst.
Please Note: The pedals are marked “L” for Left and
“R” for right. The left pedal is attached by turning it
counterclockwise and the right pedals are tightened by
turning them clockwise. Make sure the pedals are tightly
attached to the crank arms to prevent slipping.

Disc Brakes
Your Jorvik trike is equipped with disc brakes for maximum reliability. Applying hand pressure to the brake levers will
engage the brake pads against the brake rotor, creating friction and slowing down the wheel. The more hand pressure
applied to the brake lever, the faster the trike will come to a stop.
The rear brake should always be applied before and while the front brake is applied. Applying only the front brake to slow
or stop at high speeds may result in the rider being ejected from the saddle and continuing forward over the handlebars.
It is best to apply even pressure to both brake levers when slowing or stopping.
Tricycles equipped with disc brakes will occasionally make a slight scraping noise when the wheels are turning without
the brakes being applied. This is normal.
WARNING:
Disc brake rotors become hot during use. Do not touch or come in contact with the disc rotor shortly after use.
Wet weather will require a longer distance to stop. Brake earlier and avoid sudden stops when riding in wet conditions.

Assembly Instructions
Make sure that the brake lever does not contact the
handlebar when full hand pressure is applied. The contact
point should feel rm and solid. If the lever travels all the
way to the handlebar or feels spongy, they may require
service by a qualied bicycle technician.
If the brakes are still not operating correctly, they may
require further adjustment by an experienced bicycle
mechanic.
New Brakes Bed-in Procedure
New brakes will require a “bed-in” procedure prior to
your rst ride, which will ensure the most consistent and
powerful braking feel.
1. Find a safe riding area that will allow for moderate
speed. Remain seated during the entire procedure for
optimal results.
2. Accelerate the trike to a moderate speed, then rmly
squeeze the brake levers until you are at walking
speed. Repeat this process about twenty times.
3. Accelerate the trike to a faster speed, then rmly
squeeze the brake levers until you are at walking
speed. Repeat this process about ten times.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Do not lock up the wheels at any point during the bed-in
procedure.

Front Suspension Travel And Sag Guide
Sag is a measurement of the amount of suspension
fork travel with the rider stationery in their normal riding
position. The Sag depends on the position and weight
of the rider and should be between 15% and 30% of the
fork’s max travel depending on the intended use and
preferences.

Gears
Your Jorvik JET model trike is equipped with 3 speed nexus hub gear driven system. The rst gear is for easier and uphill
pedalling, and the last gear is for maximum speed on level or downhill terrain. Change gears only while pedalling. When
the grip shift nexus gear selector shows ‘1’ you are in the rst gear, or the lowest gear. When it displays ‘3’ you are in the
highest gear. Adjustments require the ne tuning and should only be made by a qualied technician.
Avoid changing gears very rapidly from rst gear to the last gear or vice versa.

Safety
Helmet
Always wear an approved helmet while riding your Jorvik
Tricycle and follow the helmet manufacturer’s instructions
for t, use and care of your helmet. It is your responsibility
to familiarise yourself with the laws of where your ride
your Jorvik trike and to comply with all applicable laws.
Mechanical Safety Check
Check the condition of your Jorvik trike before every ride.
Make sure no nuts, bolts or accessories are loose, with
particular attention to the front axle and handlebar stem.
Make sure that the tyres are correctly inated with the
recommended air pressure that is located on the side wall
of very tyre. Check the brakes for proper operations.
You must take your trike in to be serviced and checked
by a qualied bike/trike mechanic after 100 miles (160
kilometres) of riding. This is a standard good practice for
any new trike as cables will stretch and components will
“break in”. The service must include spoke tensioning for
both front and rear wheels.
