Owner`s manual
Pedals
13. Find the pedals in your parts box. Grease the threads and
thread them securely into the crank arms using a 15mm open-end
wrench. Note that the pedals have opposite thread directions and must
go on a specic side of the bicycle. The pedal meant for the drive-side (the
side of the bicycle with the chain and gears) has a standard thread, which is
tightened clockwise. The non-drive-side pedal has a reverse, non-standard
thread. It must be turned counter-clockwise to be screwed in.
The pedals should be marked ‘R’ and ‘L’ for “Right” and “Left,” however they
can also be identied by their threads, as shown in diagram P.
14. Turn the bike right-side-up, using the kickstand to keep it upright.
Close the front brake by reversing step 10 (gure H), pulling the brake
noodle back into its holder. If the cable feels tight, check the cabling to make
sure it is properly organized in front of the bike to allow enough slack to re-
close the brake.
15. Adjust your front and rear brakes. Your brakes may not be
fully adjusted from the factory; refer to your owner’s manual for detailed
instructions on brake adjustment or consult a professional bike mechanic if
you are not comfortable making these adjustments yourself. Do not attempt
to ride your bicycle without properly adjusting the brakes!
16. Adjust your shifters and derailleurs, referring to the owner’s
manual for full instructions. Riding your bicycle without properly adjusting
the drivetrain can cause irreparable damage! Consult a professional bike
mechanic if you are not comfortable making these adjustments yourself.
