Ensure that the stem and tire are aligned (4-D). If not, loosen the stem bolts and adjust the stem (4-C). Tighten the stem
bolts. To check for tightness, brace the front wheel between your legs and try to move the handlebar. The stem should
not move.
Note: The nut on the top of the steering tube is the headset adjustment nut (4-C). This nut should not be adjusted during
assembly.

4. INSTALL PEDALS.
Required tool – 15mm open-end wrench, or adjustable wrench.
CAUTION: The right pedal has right-hand threads and must be installed in the right crankarm, tightening in
a clockwise direction (4-B). The left pedal has left-hand threads and must be installed in the left crankarm, tightening
in a counter-clockwise direction (4-C). To avoid cross-threading, carefully start and tighten pedals by hand. Then tighten
securely with a 15mm wrench.

Pedals are marked "L" and
"R" on their spindles.
5. ATTACHMENT OF SADDLE (If already attached as in 5-C skip this step)
Required tool- 6mm hex wrench, 4mm hex wrench for non-quick release seat clamp
To attach the saddle to the seat post, unpack the seatpost and saddle. Using a 6mm hex wrench turn the seatpost clamp
bolt counter clockwise to loosen. Take care not to completely unscrew the bolt. Turn the top plate 90 degrees (5-A).
With the bolt portion of the seatpost clamp facing the rear of the saddle, position the seatpost clamp mechanism along
the saddle rails. Turn the top plate 90 degrees again to align the grooves in the seatpost clamp evenly above and below
the saddle rails (5-B). Make sure the clamping mechanism is clamping on the straight part of the saddle rails and is not
touching the curved part of the rails. Snug the seatpost clamp bolt.
