To install a handlebar-mounted front reflector (white), remove the reflector mounting screw and gently open the bracket
enough to slide over the handlebar on the left side of the stem. Position the reflector perpendicular to the ground and
secure with the screw. Use care not to over-tighten as the bracket may crack.
Fork mounted reflectors will be mounted but need to be adjusted to the proper position. Rotate the reflector upright.
Loosen the adjustment screw located below the reflector, set perpendicular to the ground and tighten to secure.

NOTE: For additional maintenance and safety tips, be sure to read your Owner's Manual thoroughly.
Your stem angle comes pre-adjusted for the average rider and may be perfectly satisfactory where it is. However, some
bikes have an adjustable "riser" stem. You may be able to raise or lower it, as well as move it farther away from you. If
you'd like to be sitting more upright, you can move it up and back towards you. If you feel that your riding position is too
upright, you can move it lower and out away from you.
Moving the stem straight up and down is the simplest way to make minor height
adjustments. This was covered in the assembly instructions. (Remember not to
raise the stem over the "minimum insertion line.")
