When un-folding, you should only need to touch the bike at the
saddle/seatpost and handlebar stem. With a little practice the bike
can be unfolded in under 5 seconds.
1. Open
-Stand on the left side
(saddle to your left).
-Unlatch the seatmast by
pushing in the catch and lift
up on the saddle.
-Unlatch the stem and lift up
keeping pressure on stem so
that stem hinges press firmly
together.
2. Swing
-Left hand grasping stem.
-Right hand grasping
seatmast.
-Lift the bike so the rear
wheel will roll back out.
You can use your foot or
the ground to help the
wheel along.
