Assembly Guide

MOUNTAIN & ACTIVE

INTRODUCTION

THIS BRIEF ASSEMBLY GUIDE CONTAINS IMPORTANT INFORMATION.

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY AND STORE IN A SAFE PLACE.

This Assembly Guide shows you how to build your bicycle from out of the box. The

directions covered in this guide are general guidelines and apply to all Specialized flat bar

(mountain/active) bicycles. If you’re unsure of the correct setup of your bicycle, contact

Specialized Rider Care or visit an Authorised Specialized Retailer.

This document is not intended as a use, service, repair, or maintenance guide. Please visit

an Authorised Specialized Retailer for all service, repairs, or maintenance.

Some bicycles come with a specific User Manual. This assembly guide is not a replacement

for your bicycle’s User Manual. The user manual contains important safety, performance,

and technical information specific to your bicycle, which you should read and keep for

reference.

You should also read the entire Specialized Bicycle Owner’s Manual (“Owner’s Manual”) as

it has additional important, general information and instructions you should follow. If you

don’t have a copy of the Owner’s Manual, you can download it at www.specialized.com or

obtain it from Specialized Rider Care or your nearest Authorised Specialized Retailer.

Additional safety, performance, and service information for specific components such as

suspension or pedals on your bicycle or accessories such as helmets or lights, may also

be available. In case of a conflict between the information in this assembly guide and

information provided by a component manufacturer’s manuals, please contact Specialized

Rider Care or an Authorised Specialized Retailer.

Please note all instructions and notices are subject to changes and updates without notice.

Please visit www.specialized.com for periodic tech updates.

SYMBOLS

When reading this assembly guide, you will note various important symbols and warnings,

which are explained below:

WARNING! The combination of this symbol and word indicates a potentially

hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in serious injury or death.

Many of the Warnings say “you may lose control and fall.” Because any fall can

result in serious injury or even death, we do not always repeat the warning of

possible injury or death.

CAUTION: The combination of the safety alert symbol and the word CAUTION

indicates a potentially hazardous situation, which, if not avoided, may result in

minor or moderate injury, or is an alert against unsafe practices.

The word CAUTION used without the safety alert symbol indicates a situation

which, if not avoided, could result in serious damage to the bicycle or the voiding

of your warranty.

This symbol alerts the reader to information that is particularly important.

This symbol means that high-quality grease should be applied as illustrated.

This symbol means that carbon friction paste should be applied as illustrated to

increase friction.

Tech tips are helpful tips and tricks regarding installation and use.

Refer to the Owner’s Manual supplied with your bicycle for more specific

information.

Where applicable, refer to the User Manual supplied with your bicycle for more

specific information.

This assembly guide was drafted in the English language and may have been translated

into other languages as applicable.

ADDITIONAL LANGUAGES ARE AVAILABLE FOR DOWNLOAD AT www.specialized.com.

ASSEMBLY

WARNING: IN THE INTERESTS OF SAFETY IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT YOU

HAVE THIS BICYCLE ASSEMBLED BY A SKILLED BICYCLE MECHANIC.

BIKE INSPECTION

When removing all the parts from the packaging, ensure nothing was damaged during

shipping. Call Specialized Rider Care if you notice any damage.

TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS

• The torque specifications for the bicycle build can be found in the user manual

supplied with the bicycle (where applicable) or printed on the part near the bolt

you are torquing.

• General torque specifications may also be found in the Owner’s Manual.

WARNING: Correct tightening force on fasteners (nuts, bolts, screws) on your

bicycle is important for your safety. If too little force is applied, the fastener may

not hold securely. If too much force is applied, the fastener can strip threads,

stretch, deform or break.

An incorrect tightening force can result in component failure, which can cause

you to lose control and fall. Where indicated, ensure each bolt is torqued to

specification. After your first ride, and consistently thereafter, recheck the

tightness of each bolt to ensure secure attachment of the components.

Please keep all your packaging as you can reuse it to transport your bicycle.
