STEP 01
REMOVE WHEELS AND PREPARE BIKE
1A
The packaging sections are individually
numbered to make it easy for you to
remove everything in the right order. The wheels
come out first, followed by the rest of the bike.
Please keep all packaging for possible future
storage or shipping.
STEP 02
INSTALL HANDLEBARS
2A
Remove any packaging on the front of the
bike, then spin the handlebar stem 180°
so that the stem and forks are facing forward. Make
sure that the forks are the correct way around – the
front brake caliper should be on the left (non-drive)
side of the bike, with the fork arch facing forward.

1B
Remove the toolbox and accessories
and place nearby. Carefully remove the
wheels from the bike box and put to one side.
Next, lift up the front end of the bike and hook
the fork legs over the box, so that the box acts as
a stand.
2B Using the 4mm Allen key remove the
faceplate of the stem and put the
handlebars in place. Use the guidelines printed
on the handlebars to help position them centrally
and evenly. Check that the brake, gear and
dropper post cables have a nice flow and are not
kinked or twisted in any way.
2C
Replace the faceplate of the stem and
reinsert the bolts, firstly by hand and
then with the 4mm Allen key. Gradually tighten
the bolts, making sure that the bars are still
positioned correctly and that the space between
the faceplate and the main body of the stem is
even all the way around.
STEP 03
RELEASE DROPPER, REMOVE BIKE FROM BOX
3A
Now raise the adjustable seatpost
(dropper) to its full height by pressing the
lever on the left-hand side of the handlebars. With
the saddle (seat) in its fully extended position, you
can now pull the bike out of the box.
2D
When tightening the bolts follow this
pattern to ensure even clamping: top
left, bottom right, bottom left, top right. Finish off
using the torque wrench to 5Nm.
3B
Turn the bike over (upside down) so that it
is balancing on its saddle and handlebars.
It is a good idea to protect your saddle and
handlebars with a piece of cardboard or cloth to
avoid possible scuffs.
