PEDALS - Make sure that the right-hand pedal is attached to right
and left-hand pedal is attached to the left crank arms. Pedal
spindles are marked "R" and "L" for right and left hand. Left hand
pedal is tightened counter clockwise. You may apply a small
amount of grease to the threaded area of the pedal axle to protect
the threads from corrosion.
STEP 4 - Finishing Work
REAR FENDERS – First, attach the fender reflectors to the
fenders, then install the rear fenders by attaching the fender brace
to the bracket on the rear axle housing using fender mounting
bolts. Before tightening the bolts, adjust the fender position so
that the fenders are spaced evenly over the wheels. You may
need to bend the braces a little to achieve the best spacing. Once
the fenders are in the right position, tighten the bolts, making sure
that the bolts are tightened evenly on both sides.
Install the chain guard and reflectors.
NOTE: WHEN AIRING TIRES, MAKE SURE THAT THE TIRE
BEAD IS SEATED INSIDE THE RIM BEFORE REACHING
MAXIMUM PRESSURE.
Inflate to about 15 PSI, stop and check to make sure tire is seated
uniformly on the rim. Look for any areas of the bead that is not
fully inserted into the rim. Now you can finish inflating to the
maximum pressure. If you use an air compressor, make sure you
stop and check the tire frequently before you reach maximum
pressure. Air compressors air the tire too quickly and may cause
the tire to blow up or pop-off the rim if the tire is not seated
properly.
