6. Once you have rotated the handlebar 90 degrees (make sure the forks and wheel are also rotated the
correct way round, the disc rotor and brake cable should be running down the non-drive side), re-tighten
the two stem bolts in-line and central to the front wheel, to a torque setting of 6Nm (Newton meters).
Tighten each bolt incrementally (swapping between the two bolts after each incremental turn) until you
reach the desired torque setting.
The 'out of box' assembly is now complete and should resemble the image on the front of this manual. For further
visual help and guidance, be sure to check out our video instruction, available via the Avaris website.
Safety first:
1. Do you have all the required and recommended safety equipment (helmet, clothing, etc) It's also your
responsibility to familiarise yourself with the local laws within the areas you intend to ride, and thus; to
comply with said applicable laws.
2. Do you know how to check that your wheel is secured accordingly (see 'Mechanical Safety Check' for advice)?
The bolts and nuts should be torqued accordingly. Riding with a loosely tightened wheel can cause it to
wobble or disengage from the bicycle, potentially resulting in serious injury or death.
3. If your bicycle has toe clips and straps, or clipless ("step-in") pedals, make sure you know how they should be
installed correctly. Speak with a local specialist for advice if unsure, or follow the pedal manufacturer's
instructions for use, adjustment and care.
4. Suspension can change the way a bicycle performs. Follow the suspension manufacturer's instructions for
use, adjustment and care.
5. Do you have "foot overlap"? On bicycles that have been sized incorrectly with regards to correct height (see
'Section 3'), framed bicycles that are too small, would potentially mean that your foot could come into
contact with the front wheel when a pedal is all the way forward and the wheel is turned, potentially
resulting in serious injury or death.
Mechanical Safety Check:
You should always routinely check the condition of your bicycle before every ride...
Nuts, bolts & straps: Make sure nothing is loose and all fittings are secure and torqued accordingly. Lift the
front wheel off the ground by four or five centimetres, then let it bounce on the ground. Does anything
sound differently, or does something feel or look loose? Do a quick visual and tactile inspection of the whole
bicycle. Any loose parts or accessories? If so, secure them. If you're not sure, ask someone with experience
to check.
Tyres & Wheels: Make sure both tyres are correctly inflated (see 'Section Five' for advice). Check by putting
one hand on the saddle and one on the stem of the handlebar, then bounce your weight on the bike while
looking for tyre deflation. Compare what you see with how it looks when you know the tyres are correctly
inflated; and adjust if necessary. Tyres in good shape? Spin each wheel slowly and look for cuts in the tread
and sidewall. Replace damaged tyres immediately before riding the bike. Do your wheels spin true? Spin
each wheel and check for brake clearance and any side-to-side wobble. If a wheel wobbles side to side even
slightly, or rubs against the brake pads, take the bicycle to a qualified technician to have the wheel trued.
Are your wheels secured correctly on the forks and on the rear dropout? There should be no lateral play
whatsoever, check that your wheel quick release axels are torqued up securely.
CAUTION: Wheels must be true for the brakes to work effectively. Wheel truing is a skill which requires special tools
and experience. Do not attempt to true a wheel unless you have the knowledge, experience and tools needed to do
the job correctly.
Brakes: Check the brakes for proper operation (see also 'Section Five'). Squeeze the brake levers, do they
feel right? Do the brake pads within the callipers touch the disc rotor? Do the brake pads look worn? Are all
the control cables seated and secure? Can you apply full braking force at the levers without having them
touch the handlebar? If not, your brakes might need adjusting, or new parts might be needed due to natural
wear and tear.
