d. Installing a Bolt-On Rear Wheel with Coaster Brake
(1) Put the chain onto the wheel sprocket. Then, insert the wheel into the frame dropouts and push it all the way in to the
dropouts. The axle nut washers should be on the outside, between the frame and the axle net.

(3) Pull the wheel back in the dropouts so that it is straight in the frame and the chain has about 1/4 inches of up-and-down
play.
(4) Secure the coaster brake arm to its frame bracket, but do not fully tighten the securing nut and bolt.
(5) Tighten the axle nuts as tightly as you can, using a six-inch adjustable wrench or a correctly sized box wrench. Spin the wheel
to make sure it is straight in the frame.
B. Seatpost Quick Release
Some bikes are equipped with a quick-release seat post binder. While a quick release looks like a long bolt with a lever on one
end and a nut on the other, the quick release uses a cam action to firmly clamp the seat post.
WARNING: Riding with an improperly tightened seat post can allow the saddle to turn or move and cause you to lose control
and fall. Therefore:
1. Ask your dealer to help you make sure you know how to correctly clamp your seat post.
2. Understand and apply the correct technique for clamping your seat post quick release.
3. Before you ride the bike, first check that the seatpost is securely clamped.
