How To Mount Your Bike
To mount your bike on BikeTower, place the hooks
under the crossing sections of the frame tubing.
Normally, you will hook the top-tube with both
hooks, but in the case of sloping frame, you can
change to another point such as behind the seat-
tube.
Choose the most stable section for maximum safety.
!
If your bike has been to have the front
wheel higher than the rear wheel, the
front wheel may move side-to-side.
This could cause incidental damage to
your bike if the handle bars or brakes
or other parts come in contact with
your frame.
Adjust the bike accordingly to avoid
incidental contact.
How To Re-Install Clamp Band
The clamp bands come pre-installed and they
should not need to be removed. However, there may
come time when adding options to BikeTower that
you will need to remove them.
The band direction is absolutely fixed. You must
install the clamp band in proper direction.
Failure to do so will cause serious trouble that the
bike will slide down or the parts will be damaged.
