Step 2
Attach the handlebars
Put down the kickstand so the bike stands up
without you having to hold it. Your Cadence will
travel with the handlebars loose, zip tied to the
frame. Cut loose the handlebars.
Simply unscrew the 4 handlebar bolts with the
relevant 4mm Allen key in your tool kit (provided).
Place your bars in-between the handlebar
setting so the brake levers face away from the
front of the bike and your gears are to your
right while riding. Make sure the cables are not
tangled and are on the outside of the stem to.
There will be a textured section in the middle of
the handlebars where the stem plate should fix
around. Simply tighten the bolts over the bar as
evenly as you can to make sure there is a flush fit.
Tighten in a cross sequence to ensure the stem
plat fits flush and the screws are straight.
Before tightening all the way, rotate the bars
into your desired position so the brake levers are
easy and comfortable to reach. Secure fully.
To adjust the rotation of the bars, simply loosen
off the handlebar bolts slightly, twist the bars
into position and tighten back up.

Step 3
If the handlebars need straightening
Using the relevant 5mm Allen keys from your
tool kit, loosen the two bolts on the side of
your stem slightly.
Facing the front of the bike, place the front
wheel between your legs and hold the
handlebars. Gently turn the handlebars while
holding the wheel in place with your knees,
aligning the bars and wheel until they both
point straight forward.
If the bars don't rotate easily, loosen the bolts
more. Once straight, fully tighten the bolts.
If there is any movement in the handlebars,
check these bolts are tightened.
