Your bike has been pre-assembled and requires only a few simple steps to get it ready for you to ride:
Step 1: Remove the outside carton after cutting the nylon bands and lift off the entire box from the tray at the bottom. Carefully remove your bike from the bottom tray and gently rest it in place with the kickstand down.
Step 2: Remove all of the inside cardboard protection and bubble wrap.
Step 3: Please locate and set aside the kit box containing the battery charger, pedals, and tool kit.
Step 4: The handlebar must be adjusted for height and alignment. Remove the rubber protective cap and insert the handlebar stem into the frame of the bicycle (Figures 1 & 2).
Step 5: With the 6 mm allen wrench provided in the tool kit, tighten the screw on top of the stem underneath the rubber protective cap to secure the handlebar in place. Make sure the handlebar is aligned with the front wheel before tightening and that the stem is not set above the maximum height indicator.
Step 6: If need be, the angle of the handlebar may be positioned to your personal preference. Loosen the front 2 bolts on the front stem plate and angle the handlebar to your liking (Figure 3), then securely tighten the 2 bolts on the front stem plate. Make sure that, when tightening, there is even spacing between the top and bottom bolts to ensure even clamping force and maximum stability (Figure 4).
Step 7: Make sure the seat is tight enough so that you can’t twist it out of alignment. Pull the seat clamp handle away from the seat post and slide the seat up or down to adjust it (Figure 1). Move the clamp handle inward toward the seat post so it is held tight by the clamp (Figure 2).
This should require a fair amount of force to ensure the seat post is held tight. If necessary, tighten the clamp bolt with a 4 mm Allen wrench; turning the bolt clockwise will increase the clamping force and counter-clockwise will decrease the clamping force. Make sure the seat is not set with the vertical maximum height marks above the clamp.
Step 8: Using the 15 mm wrench provided in the tool kit, attach and tighten the pedals. PLEASE NOTE The pedals are marked “L” for Left and “R” for Right. The left pedal is attached by turning it counterclockwise and the right pedal is tightened by turning it clockwise. Make sure the pedals are tightly attached to the crank arms to prevent stripping.

Step 1: Remove the outside carton after cutting the nylon bands and lift off the entire box from the tray at the bottom. Carefully remove your bike from the bottom tray and gently rest it in place with the kickstand down.
Step 2: Remove all of the inside cardboard protection and bubble wrap.
Step 3: Please locate and set aside the kit box containing the battery charger, pedals, and tool kit.
Step 4: Insert the handlebar stem into the frame of the bicycle. You may adjust the height of the handlebar by moving the stem up or down to your comfort level. Place your thumb on the locking mechanism on the left side of the stem, depress the button and lift the lever up exposing the adjustment screws (Figure 1).
Step 5: Move the stem so that you can see directly down the hole (Figure 2).
Step 6: Insert the 6 mm allen wrench (supplied in the kit) into the hole and tighten the screw clockwise until the stem does not move separately from the front wheel (Figure 3).
Step 7: Make sure the handlebar is aligned with the front wheel before tightening, and the stem is not set above the maximum height indicator. In order to get the bolt securely tight, you may need to use a pair of pliers for leverage.
Step 8: Position the handlebar to your desired comfort level and lock them into place by pushing the lever back down. If there is movement after pushing the lever down or if is too tight to push down, you can tighten or loosen the screw (Figure 4) with a 2.5 mm wrench.
Step 9: Make sure the seat is tight enough so that you can’t twist it out of alignment. Pull the seat clamp handle away from the seat post and slide the seat up or down to adjust it (Figure 1). Move the clamp handle inward toward the seat post so it is held tight by the clamp (Figure 2).
This should require a fair amount of force to ensure the seat post is held tight. If necessary, tighten the clamp bolt with a 4 mm Allen wrench; turning the bolt clockwise will increase the clamping force and counter-clockwise will decrease the clamping force.

Step 4: Install the front wheel by lining up the disc brake and placing the fork of the bike onto the front wheel.
Step 5: With the wheel in position, retrieve the thru axle from the kit box. Twist the end cap counter clockwise to remove, set cap and spring (Avenue, Element & Inteceptor Platinum only) aside.
Step 6: Insert the thru axle into the fork dropouts and wheel hub from the drive side (Right side). Once completely through, slide the spring onto the end of the axle (Avenue, Element & Inteceptor Platinum only) and twist the adjusting nut clockwise on the threaded end of the thru axle. Tighten the thru axle by
twisting clockwise and close the lever to secure the wheel.

Step 4: Install the front wheel by lining up the disc brake and placing the fork of the bike onto the front wheel.
Step 5: With the wheel in position, retrieve the thru axle from the kit box. Open the thru axle lever and align it with the cut-out.
Step 6: Insert the thru axle into the fork dropouts and wheel hub from the drive side (right side) of the bike. Tighten the thru axle clockwise until it is snug against the fork leg and close the lever to secure the wheel. The lever should take medium pressure to close; to increase the tension, tighten the thru axle one click at a time with a 2.5 mm Allen wrench until the desired resistance is achieve.
If necessary, align the stem with the front wheel and tighten the top bolt just enough to take any play out of the headset bearings. Once the handlebars are aligned and the top bolt is snug, evenly tighten the two side bolts. Check that there is no play between the fork and frame. If necessary, loosen the two side bolts and tighten the top bolt to take out any bearing play, then re-tighten the side bolts.
Be careful to not tighten the top bolt too much as the steering will feel rigid and sluggish.
Step 7: Make sure the seat is tight enough so that you can’t twist it out of alignment. Pull the seat clamp handle away from the seat post and slide the seat up or down to adjust it (Figure 1). Move the clamp handle inward toward the seat post so it is held tight by the clamp (Figure 2).
This should require a fair amount of force to ensure the seat post is held tight. If necessary, tighten the adjusting nut by hand or clamp bolt with a 4 mm Allen wrench while in the open position; turning the bolt clockwise will increase the clamping force and counter-clockwise will decrease the clamping force. Make sure the seatpost is not set with the vertical maximum height marks above the clamp.
Step 8: Using the 15 mm wrench provided in the tool kit, attach and tighten the pedals. PLEASE NOTE – The pedals are marked “L” for Left and “R” for Right. The left pedal is attached by turning it counterclockwise and the right pedal is tightened by turning it clockwise. Make sure the pedals are tightly attached to the crank arms to prevent stripping.
