FRAME ASSEMBLY
YETI TIPS
Make sure your tools are in good condition.
A worn allen key can round the hex on a bolt
not allowing for proper torque.
Torque settings are listed throughout the
instructions. It is important to prep all bolt
threads. The instructions denote whether to
use a Loctite compound or grease.
Warning: Service on Yeti bicycles requires special knowledge
and tools. Yeti Cycles recommends that all service and
repairs be performed by an authorized Yeti Dealer

01.
All the parts you'll need to get your SB4.5 frame
assembled. Please refer to to the exploded view
later in this manual for more information.
03.
Insert the Infinity Link from the non-drive side.
The Infinity logo should be up and the Fox logos
facing the non-drive side. Rock the link into place
capturing the black fitting washers. Make sure that
they have not slipped or rotated. The flat end of
the fitting washers must be facing the opening in
the frame and they must nestle into the Infinity Link
stanchions.
02.
Slip washers onto and apply blue (242) Loctite
to the 4 bolts that secure the Switch Infinity Link
to the frame. Insert them into their place and
hang the black fitting washers from them. Place
washers with the flat side flush to the frame and
opening.
04.
While holding the link in place lightly tighten the
bolts. You want them to snug so that the link
does not move and so that the fitting washers
are fully captured, but don't try to torque them by
hand! Finish the job with a torque wrench.
*Torque to 12 Nm
