❼ Move the quick-release lever into the open position. With one
hand on the quick-release lever and one hand on the
adjustment nut, start to hand tighten the adjustment nut until
you start to feel some resistance against the fork. Figure 3.14
❽ Try to close the quick-release lever. If it closes easily, open it
up and tighten the adjustment nut further. If it is too difficult
to close, open the quick-release lever up and loosen the
adjustment nut a little and try again. Do not attempt to tighten
by turning the quick-release lever. The quick-release lever is
for closing, the adjustment nut is for adjusting the tension.
Important!
Only tighten the
quick-release with the
adjustment nut.
Important! You should feel resistance when you close the
quick-release lever that should leave a temporary impression
on your fingers. Open and close the handle to ensure the
wheel is securely locked in place.
❾ Re-check that the handlebars are perpendicular to the front
wheel. Adjust if needed.
