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.
