Installing The Front Fender; Mountain Bikes - MONTAGUE DIRECT CONNECT Owner's Manual

To Install Front Fender
Bikes that come with RackStand also
include a matching front fender. This
fender must be installed upon assembly.
Pavement Bikes:
1. Remove the nut from the rear of the
front fork (Fig. 16). Depending on the
model, the mating screw may be part
of the caliper brake assembly or a
bare screw.
2. Position the fender on the back side
of the fork and reinstall the nut so
that it passes through the slotted
fender mount. Tighten (Fig. 16).

Mountain Bikes:

1. Remove the screw from the rear of
the front fork. Some forks allow the
screw to thread directly into the fork
crown (Fig. 17), while some pass
through to a nut on the front of the
fork (Fig. 18).
