16 ASSEMBLY FROM ThE BIKEGUARd
The quick-release lever is mounted to the left
side, i.e. opposite the chain drive.
Read up on quick-releases in the chapter
"How to use the quick-release" in your bicycle
manual road bike.
The brakes have been optimised aerodynami-
cally and therefore do not have a release le-
ver. They cannot be opened. Let most of the
air out of the tyre if necessary.
Mount the front wheel by carefully pressing
the tyre together and pushing the hub togeth-
er with the quick-release into the drop-outs.
Tighten up the counternut of the quick-re-
lease until the quick-release lever builds up
force when closed.
Close the quick-release. Read the chapter
"How to use the quick-release" in your bicycle
manual road bike beforehand.
Inflate the tyre to the maximum pressure indi-
cated on the side of the tyre.
You can find more on the topic of tyres and in-
ner tubes in the chapter "The wheels" in your
bicycle manual road bike.
Make sure the front wheel is accurately cen-
tred between the fork blades. Make sure the
quick-release and the drop-out safety-tab are
properly closed and seated. verify that the
brake is accurately centred with regard to the
rim.
Spin both wheels to make sure they run true.
Check whether the brake pads hit
the braking surfaces of the rims
with their entire surface. For more infor-
mation read the chapter "The brake sys-
tem".

MOUNTING THE PEDALS
Before mounting the pedals, check the mark-
ing on the pedal axles first. "R" stands for
right pedal and "L" for left pedal. Note that the
left pedal has a left-handed thread that has to
be tightened contrary to the direction you are
accustomed to, i.e. anticlockwise.
Apply a little grease on the pedal threads be-
fore screwing in the pedals.
