3. Installation Steps: Assembling Your Bike

3.1 Front Wheel Assembly:

 Do not touch the brake pads or rotors with your fingers. The oil will contaminate them and cause
noises when braking.

Align the disc rotor so it fits between the brake pads. Do not force it. (Figure 1)

Place the front wheel axle onto the fork dropouts. (Figure 2)

Install the quick release skewer. The narrow part of the cone springs should face inward. (Figure 3)

Rotate to tighten and then hand tighten the axle skewer quick release arm. Line up the disc rotor to
make sure there is space on each side, so they don't rub. Then make sure the wheel is secure.
(Figure 4)
WARNING ◆ IT IS VITAL THAT THE QUICK RELEASE HAVE BEEN TIGHTENED. IF THEY ARE NOT PROPERLY
ALIGNED, THE WHEEL MAY COME OFF, CAUSING SERIOUS INJURY AND/OR DEATH.
