1. Insert Wheel Into Frame
Insert the complete built Powertap wheel into the frame. Make sure the axle is correctly posi-
tioned in the dropouts and secure wheel in place with a
steel skewer(Fig 1).
2. Attach Receiver To Seat Stay
Locate the bottom of the receiver 7 inches from the Powertap axle, and attach the receiver
to the seat stay using two cable ties. Place foam tape between receiver and frame for a
slip-free fit. If necessary, rotate receiver inward to within 5 degrees of parallel with the hub
battery cover before tightening cable ties.
The head of the cable tie fits flush into a recessed cavity in the receiver. Pull the cable ties tight
to secure to the frame and clip off any excess cable tie. Route the wire along the seat stay and
top tube to the handlebar area. Wrap around brake housing and/or use cable ties to affix the
wire to the frame. Be careful not to crimp the receiver wire with cable ties. Allow a small
amount of slack in the receiver wire where it meets the reciver. Unneceassary stress at this
point can lead to receiver failure.
