14 RIDING SAFELY General Rules When riding obey the same road laws as all other road vehicles, including giving way to pedestrians, and stopping at red lights and stop signs. For further information, contact the Road Traf fic Authority in your State. Ride predictably and in a straight line.
15 Wet Weather DO NOT RIDE IN WET WEA THER - In wet weather you need to take extra care. - Brake earlie r, you will take a longer distance to stop. - Decrease your riding speed, avoid sudden braking, and take corners with additional caution. - Be more visible on the road.
16 Hill Technique - Gear down before a climb and continue gearing down as required to maintain pedaling speed. - If you reach the lowest gear and are struggling, stand up on your pedals. Y ou will then obtain more power from each pedal revolution. - On the descent, use the high gears to avoid rapid pedaling.
17 GEARS - HOW TO OPERATE Derailleur Gears Most multi-speed bicycles today are equipped with what are known as derailleur gears. They operate using a system of l evers and mecha nisms to move the drive chain between different sized driving gears or cogs.
18 6 5 4 3 2 1 6 5 4 3 2 1 Recommended Chainwheel/Rear Sprocket Gear Combinations Hand Grip Shifters Some bicycles are now being equipped with a shifting mechanism called Grip Shift, which is built into the handlebar grips and does not make use of separate levers.

03 BMX Bicycles . BMX style bicycles are a popular general purpose type most suited for young riders. They are valued because of their sturdy and simple construction, and low maintenance.
04 Y our new bicycle was assembled and tuned in the factory and then partially disassembled for shipping. Yo u may have purchased the bicycle already fully re-assembled and ready to ride OR in the shipping carton in the partially disassembled form. The following instructions will enable you to prepare your bicycle for years of enjoyable cycling.
05 ABOUT THIS MANUAL This manual was written to help you get the most performance, comfort, enjoyment and safety when riding your new bicycle. It is important for you to understand your new bike. By reading this manual before you go out on your first ride, you’ll know how to get the most from your new bicycle.
06 CORRECT FRAME SIZE When selecting a new bicycle, the correct choice of frame size is a very important safety consideration. Most full sized bicycles come in a range of frame sizes. These sizes usually refer to the distance between the center of the bottom bracket and the top of the frame seat tube.
07 RIDING POSITION Saddle Height In order to obtain the most comfortable riding position and offer the best possible pedaling efficiency , the seat height should be set correctly in relation to the rider ’s leg length.
08 Handlebar Height Maximum comfort is usually obtained when the handlebar height is equal to the height of the seat. Y ou may wish to try different heights to find the most comfortable position. Threadless headsets and clamp-on stems are not adjustable and are outside the scope of this manual.
09 SAFETY CHECKLIST Before every ride, it is important to carry out the following safety checks: 1. Brakes - Ensure front and rear brakes work properly . - Ensure brake shoe pads are not over worn and are correctly positioned in relation to the rims. - Ensure brake control cables are lubricated, correctly adjusted, and display no obvious wear .
10 4. Chain - Ensure chain is oiled, clean and runs smoothl y. - Extra care is required in wet or dusty conditions. 5. Bearings - Ensure all bearings are lubricated, run freely and display no excess movement, grinding or rattling. - Check headset, wheel bearings, pedal bearings and bottom bracket bearings.
11 Helmets It is strongly advised that a properly fitting, ANSI or SNELL approved, bicycle safety helmet be worn at all times when riding your bicycle. In addition, if you are carrying a passenger in a child safety seat, they must also be wearing a helmet.
12 Reflectors Y our bicycle is supplied with one front (white), one rear (red), two wheel (white), and two pedal (orange) reflectors. These are an important safety and legal requirement, and should remain securely fitted and in good, clean condi- tions at all times.
13 Seat and Handlebar Mounting Reflectors First attach the reflector to the reflector bracket with the reflector screw, see the top diagram. Next, remove the clamp screw and open the clamping reflector bracket. Place clamping reflector bracket around the handlebar or seatpost.
19 Thumb Shifters (Top Mounted) Most mountain style bicycles are equipped with shifters mounted on the top of the handlebars and operated by the thumbs.
20 BICYCLE CARE Basic Maintenance The following procedures will help you maintain your bicycle for years of enjoyable riding. For painted frames, dust the surface and remove any loose dirt with a dry cloth. To clean, wipe with a damp cloth soaked in a mild detergent mixture.
21 Storage Keep your bicycle in a dry location away from the weather and the sun. Ultraviolet rays may cause paint to fade or rubber and plastic parts to crack.Before storing your bicycle for a long period of time, clean and lubricate all components and wax the frame.

23 NOTE: Comfort Series (CS) bicycles may be equipped w ith a stem t hat has an adjustable angle. In addition to the normal assembl y, t hese stems w ill require angling t he stem to t he desired position, and securely tightening t he 6mm angle bolt l ocated in front of t he stem bolt.
24 Ti ghten all bolts that clamp the shifters, brake levers, and bar ends to the handlebar using a 5mm Allen key or Phillips head screwdriver . (Figure 1) Handlebar with Grip Shifte r. (Figure 2) T op mounted thumb shifte r. Failure to properly tighten clamping bolts may cause sudden movement of the component resulting in loss of steering control.
25 Forks There are two different types of forks that range in styles and dimensions. One type is a rigid fork (Figure 1) consisting of stationary tubing with curved blades. The other type is a suspension fork (Figure 2) consisting of stanchion tubes riding on elastomers or springs inside of a straight fork leg.
26 Seat and Seat Post Attach the seat to the seat post by loosening the nuts on the seat clamp. Insert the tapered end of the seat post into the seat clamp until it is at the top of the clamp. Partially tighten the nuts on the seat clamp until the seat is snug, but can still be turned.
27 Attachment of an incorrect pedal into a crank arm will cause irreparable damage. Before your first ride, please check to insure your pedals are attached correctly . Pedals & Crank Set Look for the letters “R” for right, and “L” for left, stamped on each pedal spindle.
28 Front Wheel Check the wheel hub before attaching it to the fork by rotating the threaded axle. It should be smooth with no lateral movement. Insert the front wheel into the fork dropouts. Tighten the wheel nuts using the appropriate 14mm or 15mm wrench.
29 Front Brake Determine which type of brake your bike is equipped with and refer to the appropriate assembly instructions. For more information on brake adjustment and maintenance, refer to p.

39 Dual Suspension Dual Suspension bikes (DS) are equipped with a front fork as well as a rear suspension generally located below the seat. The piston works in conjunction with a spring to allow the bike to rotate on a pivot point. Ensure all attaching hardware is secured and there is no lateral movement of the rear triangle.
40 Rear Pivots The pivot assembly is a simple mechanism that allows the rear triangle to move up and down in combination with a rear suspension. Size, shape, and compounds will vary between models; however , operating principles are the same. A shaft will pivot inside of two bushings secured in place with bolts.
41 Accessories If your bike is supplied with a water bottle and cage, attach the cage to the bicycle using the Allen bolts provided. Most bikes come equipped with a saddle bag or frame bag. The saddle bag installs under the seat with the zipper facing the rear wheel.
42 Final Check -A fter all adjustments have been made, shift through every gear several times at varying speeds. This will ensure all your adjustments are correct and w ill allow you to pinpoint any trou ble areas. If you encounter any problems, refer to t he appropriate section and make any necessary adjustments.

58 WHEELS AND TIRES Wheel Inspection It is most important that wheels are kept in top condition. Properly maintaining your bicycle's wheels will help braking performance and stability when riding. Be aware of the following potential problems: •Dirty or greasy rims: Caution: These can render your brakes ineffective.
59 Tire Inspection T ires must be maintained properly to ensure road holding and stability . Check the following areas: Inflation: Ensure tires are inflated to the pressure indicated on the tire sidewalls. It is better to use a tire gauge and a hand pump than a service station pump.
60 Hub Bearing Adjustment When checked, the hub bearings of either wheel will require adjustment if there is any more than slight side play . 1. Check to make sure neither locknut is loose.
61 Remove tire bead from the rim. Pull tire back onto the rim. 6. Match the position of the leak in the tube with the tire to locate the possible cause and mark the location on the tire. 7. Remove the tire completely and inspect for a nail, glass, etc.
62 HANDLEBARS AND STE M Handlebar Stem The handlebar stem fits into the steering column and is held firm by the action of a binder bolt and expander wedge which, when tightened, binds with the inside of the fork steerer tube. When removing the stem, loosen the stem bolt two or three turns, then give it a tap to loosen the wedge inside.
63 When re-fitting the stem, make sure the handlebars are correctly aligned and tightened using the appropriate hex wrench or allen key . Do not over tighten.
64 GRIP SHIFTERS Grip Shift - Installation 1. Slide front Grip Shift assembly over left side of handlebar leaving proper clearance for handlebar grip. If necessary , move the brake lever to accommodate Grip Shift and handlebar grip. 2. Rotate assembly until cable exits beneath brake lever with adequate clearance for brake lever movement.
65 Cables and Cable Housing Cables and housing are one of the most overlooked parts on the bicycle. The first indication that your cables and housing need to be replaced is an increased amount of pressure needed to operate the brakes or shifters. Before every ride, check that there are no kinks or frays in the cables and housing.
66 HEADSET Inspection The headset bearing adjustment should be checked every month. This is important as it is the headset which locks the fork into the frame, and if loose, can cause damage or result in an accident.
67 Sleeves Seal Slider Elastomer T op-out Bottom-out Elastomer Skewer Through-Shaft Drop-Out Suspension Fork SUSPENSION FORK Some fork models di ff er from the one illustrated. Those models are not adjustable and require no maintenance other than keeping it free from dirt and grime.
68 SADDLE AND SEAT POST Inspection The seat fixing bolt and the seat post binder bolt should be checked for tightness and adjustment every month. On removing the seat post from the frame, you will notice a mark about 65mm up from the bottom with the words “max.
69 Adjustment As mentioned in Part 2, the seat can be adjusted in height, angle and distance from the handlebars to suit the individual rider. Saddle angle is a matter of personal preference but the most comfortable position will usually be found when the top of the seat is almost parallel to the ground, or slightly raised at the front.
70 BRAKES The correct adjustment and operation of your bicycle's brakes is extremely important for safe operation. Brakes should be checked for effective operation before every ride. Frequent checking of adjustment is necessary as the control cables will stretch and the brake pads will become worn with use.
71 Some brakes have a quick release mechanism to allow easier wheel removal. W henever you adjust the brakes, make sure the quick release mechanism is in the closed position. Never ride unless the quick release is firmly locked in the closed position.
72 Some brakes have a special mechanism which enables you to set the clearance on either side of the rim using a screwdriver . Brake pads should finally be adjusted so that the leading edge of the pad makes first contact with the rim.
94 4. Removing and Installing Bolt-On Wheels a. Removing a Bolt-On Front Wheel (1) Open up the brake shoes. (2) With a 15mm box wrench or a six inch adjustable wrench, loosen the two axle nuts. (3) If your front fork has a clip-on type secondary retention device, disengage it and go to step (4).
95 B. Seatpost Quick Release Many mountain bikes are equipped with quick-release seat post binders. The seatpost quick-release binder works exactly like the wheel quick-release. While a quick release looks like a long bolt with a lever on one end and a nut on the other , the quick release uses a cam action to firmly clamp the seat post.
96 C. Brakes NOTE: For most effective braking, use both brakes and apply them simultaneously . W ARNING: Sudden or excessive application of the front brake may pitch the rider over the handlebars, causing serious injury or death.
97 When you apply one or both brakes, the bike begins to slow , but your body wants to continue at the speed at which it was going. This causes a transfer of weight to the front wheel (or , under heavy braking, around the front wheel hub, which could send you flying over the handlebars).
98 2. Shifting a derailleur drivetrain If your bicycle has a derailleur drivetrain, the gear-changing mechanism will consist of: • a rear sprocket cluster , called a freewheel or freewheel cassette .
99 1) Shifting the Rear Derailleur The rear derailleur is controlled by the right shifte r. The function of the rear derailleur is to move the drive chain from one gear to another on the rear gear cluster , thereby changing gear drive ratios. The smaller sprockets on the gear cluster produce higher gear ratios.
100 3. Shifting an internal gear hub drivetrain If your bicycle has an internal gear hub drivetrain, the gear changing mechanism will consist of: • a 3, 5, 7 or possibly 12 speed internal gear hub .
101 F. C lipless (“step-in”) pedals Clipless pedals (sometimes called “step-in pedals”) are the means most racers use to keep their feet securely in the correct position for maximum pedaling efficiency . They work like ski bindings ... a plate on the sole of the shoe clicks into a spring-loaded fixture on the pedal.
102 Ti re pressure is given either as maximum pressure or as a pressure range. How a tire performs under di ff erent terrain or weather condi- tions depends largely on tire pressure. Inflating the tire to near its maximum recommended pressure gives the lowest rolling resistance; but also produces the harshest ride.
103 H. Bicycle Suspension Some Mountain Bikes come equipped with suspension systems which are designed to smooth out some of the shocks encountered in of f-road riding. There are many different types of suspension systems — too many to deal with individually in this Manual.
104 Purchase Record Card Fill in Immediately and retain as a record of your purchase. Y our Name: __________________________________________________ Address: __________________________________________.
105 LIMITED WARRANTY AND POLICY ON REPLACEMENT PROCEDURES AND RESPONSIBILITIES Y our purchase includes the following warranty which is in lieu of all other express warranties. This warranty is extended only to the initial consumer purchaser. No warranty registration is required.
73 On some newer type cantilever brakes, the main brake cable continues through the central cable carrier to an anchor bolt on one of the brake arms. A shorter link cable reaches from the carrier and the hook on the other brake arm. Adjustment of the cable length is made after loosening the anchor bolt on the brake arm.
74 DRIVETRAIN The drivetrain of a bicycle refers to all parts that transmit power to the rear wheel including the pedals, chain, chainwheel, crank set, and freewheel. PEDALS Pedals are available in a variety of shapes, sizes and materials, and each are designed with a particular purpose in mind.
75 Lubrication and Adjustment Many pedals cannot be disassembled to allow access to the internal bearings and axle. However , it is usually possible to inject a little oil onto the inside bearings, and this should be done every six months.
76 CRANK SE T The crank set refers to the bottom bracket axle and bearings, the crank arms, and chainrings. Y our bike may be fitted with either a one piece crank, where the crank arms and bottom bracket are a single component, or cotterless cranks, where the crank arms bolt onto the bottom bracket axle without using old fashioned type cotterpins.
77 Lubrication and Adjustment - One Piece Cranks To adjust the free play in a one piece type bottom bracket, loosen the locknut on the left side by turning it clockwise and tighten the adjusting cone counter-clockwise using a screwdriver in the slot. W hen correctly adjusted, re-tighten the locknut counter-clockwise.
78 Lubrication and Adjustment - Cotterless Cranks To adjust the free play in a three piece type bottom bracket, loosen the lockring on the left side by turning it counter-clockwise, then turn the adjusting cup as required. Re-tighten the lockring taking care not to alter the cup adjustment.
79 3. Screw the removing tool into the crank and tighten. 4. T urn the screw bolt down until the crank comes away from the axle. Cotterless Crank Replacement: 1. Replace the crank arm onto the axle. 2. T ap the crank arm lightly with a mallet. 3. Refit the washer and tighten flange nut or bolt securely to a torque of 27Nm.
80 CHAIN Inspection The chain must be kept clean, rust free and frequently lubricated in order to extend its life as long as possible. It will require replacement if it stretches, breaks, or causes inefficient gear shifting. M ake sure that there are no stiff links, they must all move freely .
81 Derailleur geared bicycles use narrower chains and require a special tool to fit and remove chain links, or to change the length. To remove, fit the rivet tool so that the punch pin is centered over any one of the chain rivets. Push the rivet almost all the way out, then back out the punch and remove the tool.
82 Lubrication Remove any accumulated dirt from the freewheel with a brush and a degreaser. Disassembly of t he freewheel is a compl icated procedure requiring special tools, and should be left to a specialist. Apply oil to the freewheel whenever you lubricate the chain, taking care to wipe off any excess.
83 DERAILLEUR SYSTEMS The derailleur system includes the front and rear derailleurs, the shift levers, and the derailleur control cables, all of which must function correctly for smooth gear shifting to occur . There are several different types of derailleur systems but all operate using similar principles.
84 Lubrication All the pivoting points of the front and rear derailleurs should be lubricated with light oil at least every month. Be sure to wipe off any excess oil to prevent attraction of dirt into the mechanisms.
85 Adjustment - Front Derailleur 1. Shift the rear shifter to the smallest number indicated, then shift the front shifter to the smallest number indicated. Disconnect the front derailleur cable from the cable anchor bolt and place the chain on the smallest chainwheel.
86 QUICK RELEASE LEVERS It is important to check the quick release levers before every ride to ensure all connections are made properly and securel y. Periodically , disassemble the mechanism from the bicycle and inspect for any wear or damage and replace if necessary .
87 Basket Assembly Y our bicycle may be supplied with an attachable front basket. Yo u must make sure that the basket is attached properl y. First insert on washer onto the 10mm hex head bolt and insert hex head bolt through the basket an then through the basket bracket assembly (on bike).
88 Problem Gear shifts not working properly Slipping chain Chain jumping off freewheel sprocket or chainring Constant clicking noises when pedaling Grinding noise when pedaling Possible Cause - Derail.
89 Problem Freewheel does not rotate Brakes not working effectively When applying the brakes they squeal/squeak Knocking or shuddering when applying brakes Wobbling wheel Possible Cause -F reewheel in.
90 Remedy - Align wheels correctly -A djust/tighten headset -T ake bike to a bike shop for possible frame realignment - Replace Inner tube - Replace tire - Replace with correct tire - Remove sharp obj.
91 6. How Things Work It’s important to your performance, enjoyment and safety to understand how things work on your bicycle. Even if you’re an experienced bicyclist, don’t assume that the way things work on your new bike is the same as how they work on older bikes.
92 Secondary retention devices fall into two basic categories: a) The clip-on type is an accessory part which the manufacturer adds to the front wheel hub or front fork. b) The integral type is molded, cast or machined into the outer faces of the front fork dropouts.
93 (6) Close the brake shoes; then spin the wheel to make sure that it is centered in the frame and clears the brake shoes. W ARNING: Secondary retention devices are not a substitute for correct quick release adjustment.
