4) Coil the free end of the long safety strap around the non-drive side stay.

Wrap to shorten excess strap length as needed. (Figure 6).

5) Secure the strap end by running the strap through the D-buckles above

the cantilever stud (or other permanent frame projection) and around

the stay—not around the cantilever stud (Figure 6).

NOTE: The mono-stay strap comes with a clip and D-ring which should be

attached to the top of the tongue under the head of the tongue coupler bolt.

NOTE: Generous safety strap length enables the strap to be tightened

securely around non-drive side stay. Coil excess free end of strap around

non-drive side stays and tuck end under coiled strap to avoid contact with

wheel hub and spokes.

Safety

Strap

To Alternative

Hitch

Never install a quick-release spring on the hitch (non-drive) side of the

Alternative Hitch. The spring will interfere with complete engagement of

the hitch, which could result in an accident and serious injury.

7) Secure the assembly by rotating the quick-release lever in a counter-

clockwise direction so that the lever profile presents a concave profile

facing inward toward the rear wheel. The lever will meet progressively

more resistance (like a traditional quick-release). Use the nut to adjust

the quick-release lever for a snug fit (finger tight).

8) Open and readjust as necessary until the wheel is tightly clamped. Give

a final check to the tightness of the wheel by grabbing the rim and

attempting to move the wheel in the dropout.

If you are unfamiliar with the use of quick-release levers, contact your

authorized Burley dealer for a demonstration.

NOTE: Confirm that the wheel is centered in the frame and adjust the

brakes as necessary.

9) Inspect the amount of threads protruding from the nutted end of the

quick-release skewer. The threaded rod is very sharp and can cause

injury if extending beyond the nut. If the threads extend 4mm or more

out of the nut, you will have to cut the quick release skewer down to

a shorter length.

a) Mark the skewer threads 2-4mm from the end of the nut with a

permanent marker, remove the nut and single spring, and set aside. As

an option, count the number of threads needed to cutdown the skewer

to size and use this figure as a guide after removing the skewer.
