How to Assemble the 20" Hyper Bicycles Shocker Mountain Bike

Start by carefully removing the bike from the box and preparing the seat post and saddle for installation. This first step ensures you have all the components laid out properly and ready for assembly.

Insert the seat post into the seat tube of the bike frame. Ensure that it is securely in place and that the minimum insertion line is not visible. This guarantees a stable and safe seat installation.

Before attaching the front wheel, open the axle nuts and release any safety tabs. Carefully position the wheel into the fork and tighten the axle nuts securely. Double-check the wheel's alignment within the fork arch to ensure proper placement, which is critical for wheel stability and performance.

Align the steer tube properly with the front fork and tighten the necessary bolts. This step is essential for maintaining the stability and control of the bike during rides. Make sure the handlebars are securely in place and aligned with the front wheel.

Carefully install the pedals onto the bike. The right pedal has a standard thread, while the left pedal has reverse threading. Ensure you screw them in tightly to avoid any installation issues.

Proper brake adjustment is vital for safety. Make sure the brake pads are properly aligned with the rim, ensuring effective stopping power. Check that both brake arms have equal tension for balanced braking performance.

Ensure that the rear derailleur is functioning correctly and that it shifts smoothly through all the gears. Adjust the derailleur limit screws if necessary for proper gear shifting performance.

For your safety, install both the front and rear reflectors. Secure them tightly using the appropriate tools. Properly positioned reflectors increase your visibility, particularly in low-light conditions, helping to prevent accidents.

Before taking your bike for a ride, check the tire inflation. Refer to the recommended pressure marked on the sidewall of the tire. Proper tire pressure ensures smooth handling, better traction, and reduces the risk of flats.

Before riding, conduct a final safety check:

• Reflectors: Ensure all reflectors are securely attached and correctly oriented.
• Tires and Wheels: Inspect the wheels and tires for any issues, and check the tire pressure.
• Handlebars: Confirm that the handlebars are stable and securely fastened.

Once all components are securely installed and adjusted, your 20" Hyper Shocker Bike is ready to ride. Ensure everything is in place and test the bike's stability before you hit the road.
