DERAILLEUR GEARED BICYCLES
Includes 20", 24” and 26" Wheel Mountain Bikes
Assembly is the same for men’s
and women’s bikes.
Getting Started
Open the carton from the top and remove the bicycle. Remove the
straps and protective wrapping from the bicycle. Inspect the bicycle
and all accessories and parts for possible shortages. It is recommended
that the threads and all moving parts in the parts package be lubricated
prior to installation. Do not discard packing materials until assembly is
complete to insure that no required parts are accidentally discarded.
Assemble your bicycle following the steps that pertain to your model.
Note: Your bicycle may be equipped with different style components
than the ones illustrated.
Handlebars
Remove the protective cap from the handlebar stem wedge and loosen
the Allen key bolt using the 6mm Allen key. Some models may use a
13mm hexagonal bolt instead of an Allen key bolt. Place the handlebar
stem into the top of the head tube, ensuring that all cables are free of
tangles. Tighten the stem bolt observing the minimum insertion mark and
checking that the forks and the handlebars are facing forward. Check
the headset for smooth rotation and that the top nut is secured tightly.
Loosen the 6mm Binder Bolt and rotate the handlebar forward so the
levers are at a 45 degree angle below the handlebar. Retighten the
Binder Bolt to ensure the handlebar does not rotate in the stem.

tain your bicycle.
