3.6 Adjust Derailleur and Shifter (Continued):
Adjusting your derailleur properly will be done best by a mechanic, however it can be accomplished by
following a helpful video. Please check our support pages at www.Ride1UP.com for the latest tips and video
on how to do this properly.
It is normal to need to adjust your derailleur once again after logging some miles on the bike as things settle
(spring and cable tension involved in shifting).

3.7 Test and Adjust Front and Rear Brakes:

After Assembly, you must test your front and rear brake. You can then adjust them as needed. How you
install the front wheel and brake caliper can affect whether the disc brakes rub when first assembling. After
assembly, you may need to adjust the front and rear brake. Look in line with the brake pads and slowly
tighten the quick release axle while ensuring the rotor stays in the exact middle between the pads. The disc
rotor is one of the most exposed malleable components during shipping. If it is bent, it can sometimes be
trued (bent back) or replaced with a new disc rotor. If unsure how to properly adjust your brakes, please
check our website for a recommended video. If you are unable to access our website, you should take the
bike to your local bike shop for an assembly inspection and/or tune up. The bike shop will be able to inspect
the bike for safety and adjust your brakes.
