    2. Assembly If you got your new AZUB trike from a local dealer, it should be completely assembled and ready for its first run. The dealer should also help you with the initial setup of the trike. If you have received your trike directly from AZUB, then you have to unpack and assemble the trike by yourself. We had prepared everything for you to make it as easy as possible.

    Min. insertion The wrong length of chain can impair the function of the front and rear derailleurs and cause prema- ture wear to the rear derailleur and chain. Minimum boom insertion After the boom length is set, the chain length needs adjusting. It is better to have a chain that is slightly too long rather than too short, as a short chain can damage the rear derailleur and lock the drivetrain.
  • Page 7: Handlebars Adjustment

    To adjust the horizontal seat position, sit on the seat with your leg outstretched and your heel on the pedal in the furthermost position. This is the most important setting. A short setting can cause pain in the knees. A long setting can cause problems with ligaments behind your knees.

    Rear Suspension (TRIcon, Ti-FLY) AZUB TRIcon and Ti-FLY feature an adjustable rear suspension with 100 mm (4”) of travel for the 20” version and 95 mm (3.75”) of travel for the 26” version. Suspension settings depend on the weight of the rider and luggage as well as on your riding preferences. Sag is the measure- ment of the used suspension travel when the vehicle is loaded at rest.

    Braking Although some custom-built trikes have coupled brakes, most AZUB trikes have each brake lever operating its respective brake. The left lever for the left brake, the right lever for the right brake. When you are going straight, use the same braking power on both brakes to obtain the shortest stopping distance.

    Transporting Children AZUB trikes and racks are not suitable for a child seat. It can be very dangerous for the child because the high position of the seat can cause the trike become unstable. To transport children and heavy loads, we recommend using a trailer. It will be much safer and more comfortable for your little passengers.

    Unfolding is the same in reverse order. TRIcon and Ti-Fly Folding There are two options when folding the AZUB TRIcon and Ti-FLY models. The first one is quick folding. In this case, you don’t need to remove the rear wheel or the standard rack.

    If your trike is equipped with a through-axle 26” rear wheel, the system for removing it may be different than what you are familiar with. With 26” rear wheels on trikes, AZUB uses the Syntace X-12 axle system with an integrated X-Fix tool.

    Use a chain wear gauge to check the wear on your chain. If the chain is worn out, replace it immediately. Recumbent chains are about 2.5 times the length of the standard chain length sold for traditional bicycles. Chain tubes protect your legs and trousers from the oil and dirt on the chain. When your chain tubes are worn out, contact AZUB to purchase replacements.
