HELMETS SAVE LIVES!!!
Your bicycle comes fully assembled and
folded in the box. Simply install the seat
post.
Nevertheless, it is essential that you or a
professional bicycle mechanic check this
product before your first ride (and we
recommend doing this before each ride).
You or the mechanic should check to
ensure that the brakes, drive-train, quick-
releases,
bolts, pedals, seat post, handle
post, latches, wheels, locks, and all other
components are properly installed and
adjusted. Please reference the Pre-Ride
Checklist on page 15.
Folding bicycles have special components
that are different from regular bicycles.
Please read this manual carefully before
using your bicycle.

bike that folds, the following pages will walk you through the
process of safely unfolding and folding your new =L==2 for the first
time.
Some instructions are unique to your particular model of =L==2. Please
note what model you own and what instructions pertain specifically to
your bike.

BRAKES: Make sure brakes are engaging. Test stopping power. Reference pg 19 in your user manual
CHAIN: Make sure it is snug, but not too tight or loose.
DERAILLEURS: Set barrel adjusters to precisely shift chain across all gears. Reference pg 21 in your user manual.
It is not necessary to bring the bike to a shop to perform the safety check. If you are comfortable
checking over the bike prior to your first ride, that is sufficient to activate the warranty.
Pre-Ride Checklist Before Your First Ride
Your ZiZZO Bike is designed to be "ready to ride." However, due to shipping conditions and/or the natural "breaking-
in" of your bike, it is required that you perform a pre-ride safety check prior to your first ride.
Completing the safety check and registering your bike will activate your warranties for your new bike.
Please reference the checklist below to perform the Pre-Ride Safety Check . If you have any questions, please call us at
1-866-788-2202 or email us at support@zizzo.bike.
For helpful videos, please visit us at: https://zizzo.bike/pages/zizzo-folding-bike-videos
1) LOCKS: Make sure folding FRAME and STEM locks are secure with secondary safety locks engaged.
2) HANDLEBAR AND STEM: Set angle and height of handlebar. Check that both quick-releases are secure.
3) PEDALS: Make sure pedals spin effortlessly and they are threaded completely. If folding, make sure they lock in place.
4) WHEELS: Spin the wheels to check for true (straightness), no wobbles, hops or rubbing on the brakes.
5) SADDLE: Set saddle height. Ensure that saddle mounting is secure and quick-release is secure.
6) AXLES: Tighten quick-release by hand or tighten axle nuts with a 15mm wrench.
7) TIRES: Check tire pressure to make sure it is up to spec. Tire pressure can vary, depending on the tire. You can see the
recommended tire pressure listed on the sidewall of the tire.

ADJUSTING BRAKES
Your brakes are fine-tuned at our factory.
However, various components will break-in
over the course of the first 1-3 months, like
your bicycle's brakes. Please check your
brakes by squeezing the brake levers hard.
When you do this, they should not touch
the handlebar grips. If they do, you can
adjust the brake barrel adjustment screw
counter-clockwise. After adjustment, tighten
the lock nut hard clockwise. If the brakes
still fail the check, bring the bike to a
reputable bike shop for a standard
adjustment.

Derailleur Adjustments
If you find that your =L==2 is not getting into the
proper gear, shifting is “sluggish", or you
otherwise need to make any derailleur
adjustments, please read the following
instructions:
WARNING: If you are unaware of how
to make proper adjustments to your
bicycle, seek a qualified bicycle
technician for professional adjustments.
1. Locate the “Barrel” adjustment screw on the rear
derailleur (refer to picture for exact location).
2. Screw the Barrel adjustment screw in or out until
proper shifting is obtained.
VFUHZ
)RULQGH[DGMXVWLQJ
Warning: Never move the shifter while
pedaling backward. And never pedal
backwards immediately after having
moved the shifter. Doing this could jam
the chain and cause serious damage to
the bicycle.
