    Assembly Instructions NOTICE: The following assembly steps are only a general guide to assist in the assembly of your KBO Bike and is not a complete or comprehensive manual of all aspects of assembly, maintenance and repair. We recommend you consult a certi�ied bike mechanic to assist in the assembly, repair and maintenance of your bike.
  • Page 9 Assembly Instructions ◆ Install the handlebar: Orient the handlebar properly. The brake levers should face forward and the shifter should be on the right side. Trace the brake housing from the left brake lever to the brake caliper and make sure the bundle of cables is not twisted. Remove the four screws from the stem, ensuring the linear markings on the handlebars are centered and handlebars are adjusted to a comfortable position.
  • Page 10 Assembly Instructions ◆ Install the front wheel Remove the plastic axle guards from the front wheel being sure not to touch the brake rotor set. Open the quick skewer and remove the thumb nut and cone spring. Carefully lower the fork and ensure the brake rotor goes into the caliper. Step 1: Next align the dropouts with the axle of the wheel hub to make sure the fork dropouts are fully seated on the axle.
  • Page 11 Assembly Instructions ◆ Install the headlight & front fender The headlight and front fender are both secured by a single bolt, so the front fender must be installed together with the headlight. If you prefer not to have a front fender, you may install the headlight by itself. Loosen the bolt on the fork brace.
  • Page 12 Assembly Instructions ◆ Install the pedals Make sure your pedals are installed on the correct side, as installing on the wrong side will damage the threads. Indicators for the right pedal (R) and the left pedal (L) can be found at the bottom of the pedal threads. Start threading the pedal on by hand to ensure the pedal is going in perfectly straight, rotating in the direction of the pointer shown on the crank.
