Assembly of EVELO Aurora Hub Drive Bicycle

Unboxing Your EVELO 1. Begin unboxing the bike by cutting the banding then opening the box. Use caution regarding the staples as they can be very sharp. 2. Remove the small boxes. 3. The easiest way to get the bike out of the box is to lie the box down on its side and then slide it out. See image -----> 4. Remove packaging including zip ties. Caution: sometimes the zip ties are used to hold cables or wires in place. A good indi- cator is if the zip tie is touching a painted surface of the bike—those should remain in place. 5. Empty all the boxes so you know what you are working with. The focus of this document is to assist with the assembly of your new EVELO Aurora. The scope is intentionally narrow -- The “User Guide” that was included with your bike covers a much broader spectrum of topics: fit adjustments, battery care, controls etc. Our Team is here to help 7 days a week!

Rotate Fork (if needed)

Depending on how the bike was packed at the factory, you may need to turn the forkso that the Fork Arch is facing forward. If needed, rotate the steering assembly so that the cables aren’t wrapped around the frame and the arch is facing forward. Both brake calipers should be on the left hand side of the bike. Install Stem 1. Remove the bolt, cap and cardboard tube from top of steerer tube. These items are packaging and will not be used for the assembly. 2.Prepare the stem by removing the decorative rubber plug and bolt. These parts will be rein- stalled. 3. Place the stem onto the steerer tube and side it all the way down until it contacts the stack of spacers. 4. Insert the bolt you removed in step 2 and begin threading it in with the allen wrench provided. Tighten it until the spacers below cannot be turned using 2 fingers. 5. Press the decorative rubber plug into the hole above the bolt.

1. Remove the bolt from fork arch.

2. Insert the bolt from the back side through a washer and headlight bracket. Screw in the bolt in using the allen wrench provided. Note that the hole in the headlight bracket is slotted -- as the bolt gets close to tight, lift the headlight to it’s highest position and secure in place. Sometimes the painting process can apply excess paint into the threaded hole, making the bolt difficult to turn -- use the allen wrench to turn it in as needed (just make sure the bolt isn’t cross threaded when you initially start screwing it in.) Install Headlight Install Stem (cont) 6. Turn the stem so that it will be inline with the front wheel (once installed). 7. Securely tighten the 2 bolts located on either side of the stem. Install Front Wheel 1. To install the front wheel first remove all the packaging. 2. Using a 5mm allen wrench, remove the axle from the fork

Install Front Wheel (cont)

3.Check the slot in the brake caliper for a plastic spacer. Remove it if there is one. This piece is typi- cally orange, but other colors are possible. 4.Install the front wheel, taking care to fit the brake disc into the slot in the caliper. You can now lower the kickstand and let the weight of the bike be supported by the front wheel. 5. Instert the axle through the fork and front wheel. When it stops, thread it in with the 5mm allen wrench. There will be about 1/2” of axle protruding when it is inserted far enough to begin engaging the threads.

Installation of the pedals requires a 15 mm

wrench. It is important to note that the pedals are threaded differently. The right pedal will screw in clockwise, and the left pedal will screw in counterclockwise. There is an L and an R stamped into the end of each pedal for refer- ence. Screw both pedals in securely. Use of Battery Keys for your battery were attached to the bike (typically the handlebars). We cannot replace exact keys, so it is a good idea to keep one in a safe place and use the other for daily use. To release the battery, insert the key in the lock and twist. While in the unlocked position, tip the battery and lift out of the bike. To reinstall, place the tab at the bottom of the battery into the slot in the dock and tip the bat- tery inward until it clicks. Double check to make sure that it is secure. To charge your battery, first insert the charger tip into the battery (there is a rubber door to open). Plug the charger into any standard outlet. It should begin as red when the charger is plugged in to both the outlet and the battery. It is charged when the red light turns green. This can be done with the battery either on or off the bike. Detailed battery care information is in your User Guide.

Its possible that the chain has come off the chain-

ring during shipping. Correcting this is quite easy. Begin at the bottom and pull the chain forward and place it on the teeth of the chainring. You will be pulling against the spring tension of the rear deraillure. Continue pulling and wrapping as you move in a counter-clockwise direction until the chain has engaged the teeth all the way to the top as shown.

Your new EVELO bicycle is equipped with a three-inch tire and mounted to a wide rim. Your bike’s

tire and rim are both designed for maximum comfort, traction, and stability. This tire and rim combination may be a bit different than bike tires you have used in the past. Given the much higher volume created by tire and rim combination, the recommended pressure is sig- nificantly lower than tire pressure on most bicycles. Please reference the table below to correctly set the tire pressure. The pressure recommendation printed on the tire should not be used, as they are not suitable for this tire and rim combination. Additionally, it’s always a good idea to check your tire pressure every couple of weeks. Rider Weight Tire Pressure 100-140 Pounds............. 14 PSI 141-160 Pounds..............16 PSI 161-180 Pounds..............17 PSI 181-200 Pounds.............18 PSI 201-220 Pounds.............19 PSI 221-240 Pounds.............20 PSI 241-260 Pounds.............21 PSI 261-280 Pounds.............22 PSI 281-300 Pounds.............23 PSI 301-320 Pounds.............24 PSI 321-340 Pounds.............25 PSI 341 Pounds and Heavier...26 PSI

Serial Number Location

To register your bike on our website, you will need to record the serial number. It is located on the headtube of your bike, just above the front fork. There is considerable additional information in your “User Guide”. Of course, if you ever have questions, our team is ready to help! [email protected] 877-991-7272
