Our current partner Velorbis ships their bikes in slightly different configurations. The following guide describes a comprehensive assembly given a minimal pre-assembly by Velorbis. For a full illustration also see the support videos provided by Velorbis.

List of tools

• Multi tool with screw driver and allen keys
• 10, 13, 15mm wrench
• Bike pump

Handle bar

1. Remove the cover from the stem wedge
2. Insert the the stem into the frame so that the minimum insertion mark is hidden inside the frame NOT just hidden by the fork locknut.
3. Tighten the the allen screw on the top (stem binder bold / expander bolt) until the stem bar sits securely in the frame.
4. Adjust the handle bar and tighten the allen screw on the underside of the handle bar until the handle bar can not be moved anymore.
5. Turn the bell to the top of the handle bar and tighten its screw.
6. Insert the brake cable:
   1. Insert the end of the brake cable in the slot of the brake lever.
   2. Guide the brake cable along the slot of the brake handle.
   3. Push the end cap of the cable housing in its position in the brake handle.

Pedals

1. Both pedals come with an indication on the bolt stating either “R” or “L”. This indication describes the side of the bike each pedal has to be attached to.
2. Screw on the pedal stating “R” clockwise
3. Screw on the Pedal stating “L” counter clockwise.

Saddle

1. Attach the saddle post to the saddle.
2. Tighten the bolt and nut connecting the saddle to its post.
3. Insert the saddle until the minimal insertion mark and tighten the bolt and nut securing the saddle post in the frame. Remember to adjust the height of the saddle according to the customers height.

Front wheel

Before inserting the front wheel, remove the mudguard as the following steps will be easier.

Roller brakes

1. While inserting the front wheel in the fork make sure to also insert the brake lever of the roller brake into the corresponding bracket on the fork.
2. Slide the fork’s dropouts on the axle of the front wheel. This step can require a little bit of patience, but in order to avoid scratching the customer’s brand new bike I recommend to avoid turning the bike upside down.
3. See the installation of the “Mudguard”.
4. Tighten the Axle bolts. Make sure that the washer’s side having grooves is facing the fork / mudguard holders NOT the bolt.
5. Insert the adjustment nut of the brake cable before inserting the end of the brake cable. By tightening the brake lever of the roller brake you will be able to make space enough to insert the end of the brake cable. Adjust the brake cable’s tension with the adjustment nut. The cable should be moderately tight. Test the functionality of the brake and if the wheel is running freely if the brake isn’t pulled.

V-Brakes

1. Slide the fork’s dropouts on the axle of the front wheel. This step can require a little bit of patience, but in order to avoid scratching the customer’s brand new bike I recommend to avoid turning the bike upside down.
2. Tighten the Axle bolts. Make sure that the washer’s side having grooves is facing the fork / mudguard holders NOT the bolt.
3. Using an allen key adjust the position of the brake pad, so that it touches the rim flat when the brake is pulled. It can be easiest to squeeze both brake arms against the rim (make sure its evenly) to define their optimal position.
4. Hook the top end of the brake cable into the brake handle.
5. Attach the noodle (the name of the metal tube holding the end of the brake cable) to the noodle holder and make sure the brake functions.

Hub dynamo

1. Attach the dynamo light cable with the cable contacts facing the hub to the dynamo.

Mudguards

1. First attach the top of the mudguard to the fork using the screw that also attaches the reflector of light.
2. Attach the two mudguard arms to either side of the axle. The arms are held between two washers. Bolt -washer -mudguard – washer – fork – wheel.

Additional Parts

Depending on the customers order and the type of bike the assembly can contain additional parts like:

• Steering damper
• Basket
• Lights
• Carrier

I recommend to adjust the gears if needed. Make sure you are familiar with the gear type before adjusting it.

Check

Give the bike a full check. Take it for a short ride, shifting through all gears, testing the brakes and making sure that the tire pressure is perfect. For some extra service lubricate the chain if you think it could be needed for some extra lifespan.
