Assembly: Unfold Seat Mast
Unfold Your Bike
Lift your bike out of the
TravelCase and unfold it.
The rear end of the bike will
swing out until the rear end
fork tips engage the rear
quick release. Make sure the
quick release is in the open
position. As you are unfold-
ing the bike, be aware of
the cable housing — you want to avoid it getting hung up on the
left crank arm.
BIKE FRIDAYS COME WITH TWO TYPES OF MAST:
FOLDING AND EASY PACK.
Folding Mast instructions below; Easy Pack Mast on Page 17
Unfold the Seat Mast
(Folding Mast)
With the rear end engaged,
lift the seat mast from its
folded position along the
mono tube and pull it fully
upright. The small fork tips
on the seat mast hinge will
overlap the rear end fork
tips.
Secure the Seat Mast
(Folding Mast)
With the seat mast upright,
close the quick release.

Assembly: Easy Pack Mast
Secure the Seat Mast
(Easy Pack, telescoping)
Rather than a hinged seat
mast, the Easy Pack Seat
Mast bicycle models have a
sleeved seat mast that tele-
scopes out of the lower seat
tube. For the Easy Pack Seat
Mast bicycles, the lower
quick release only clamps
the rear end. A separate
seatpost collar with its own
quick release is provided
on the seat tube secures
the seat mast. Both quick
releases must be closed for
safe riding.
Remove the Fork Spreader
The PVC tubing in between
your fork legs is intended to
help prevent frame damage
when traveling. It is held in
place with the front wheel
quick release. Open the
quick release, unthread the
knurled nut, and put the
fork spreader in the tool
pouch for future use.

Now install the quick release
from the fork spreader on
the front wheel. Make cer-
tain that there is only one
spring per side and that the
small end of the spring is
pointing to the center of the
hub on each side. Loosely
thread on the knurled nut
for now.
