Setup, Compatibility & Care
Upon arrival, ensure all bolts—specifically the handlebars, stem, seat post, and pedals—are tightened to the manufacturer's specifications. The bike utilizes a standard 26-inch wheel size, making replacement tubes and tires widely available at most cycling shops. To maintain the bike, clean the chain regularly to remove trail grit and apply bicycle-specific lubricant to prevent rust. Inspect brake pads for wear periodically, especially if riding in muddy conditions, and adjust the cable tension using the barrel adjusters on the V-brakes as the cables naturally stretch over the first few weeks of use.
