Our bikes will come 85% assembled. Typically the fork, handlebars, crank arm, front wheel, seat and pedals will need to be installed and properly tightened (exact components varies by model and generation).
We recommend you have your bike assembled by a professional. If you follow the manual and install yourself, have it checked by a bike mechanic prior to riding to ensure the bike is assembled properly and safely. It is important to understand that damages resulting from improper assembly are not covered by the warranty.
If you plan to assemble yourself, you should be comfortable with basic bike mechanics. Please watch our assembly video and read about common issues on our support page before attempting assembly. These links will always have the most up to date tips:
