is manual contains important safety, performance and maintenance
information. Read the manual and all warnings before taking your rst
ride on your new 3G Bikes and make sure to keep the manual handy for
future reference.
Unsafe or improper use of any 3G Bikes by failing to read and comply
with all safety, performance, maintenance requirements and warnings
could result in serious injury or death. Assembly of your 3G Bikes by any
party other than an authorized 3G Bikes dealer voids our manufactur-

and service work on your bicycle performed by a properly trained and
equipped dealer.
When inspecting your bicycle, be certain to tighten all nuts and bolts
properly. Under-tightening can result in loosening, parts loss and compo-
nent damage. Over-tightened nuts and bolts can break. Certain parts have
metric hardware -- always use the correct tools. If you have any questions
or do not understand something, take responsibility for your safety and
consult with your dealer or the bicycle’s manufacturer.

In order to benet of the comfort focused design of 3G Bikes you must
make sure that the bicycle you purchased provides the correct t for you.
Firstly you should be able to stand over the bicycle frame with both feet
at on the ground (see gure A).
Some of our bicycle models feature step-through frames which have a
very low top tube.
Although not all of our bicycle models are available in dierent frame
sizes, we do have a range of wheel sizes from 29", 26" and 24" for adults
in order to meet dierent height requirements. Our city bikes come with
29" wheels and are available in a small and large frame size in all men's
models.
Bicycle Sizing
Figure A
e correct riding position for our bicycles will place your arms extended
in front of your body and your legs comfortably stretched out when the
pedal is at its furthest position (see gure B). If your feet can't reach the
pedals when they are in the furthest position we suggest lowering the seat
post a notch.
When setting the forward position of the handlebars, set them so that
you can hold the handle-grips when your elbows are only slightly bent.
You should have a strong grip and be able to easily turn the wheel in a 90º
angle side to side.
Seat and Handlebar

NOTE - Seat posts have a minumum insertion mark that must
be acknowledged, failure to do so can lead to the post bending
or breaking.
WARNING - Do not place the seat tube all the way in so that
the saddle touches the frame, doing so can result in the saddle
being pushed o the seat tube and falling o.
ere are two type of seat post clamps we use in our bicycle models.
Some are secured by allen bolts (see gure C) while others feature a quick
release lever (see gure D).
Below you can see how to secure a quick release seat post clamp and
adjust your bicycle seat.
1. First untighten the seat post clamp by ipping it outward and rotat-
ing it counterclockwise. Adjust the height of your seat. Noting the mini-
mum insertion mark on your seat post.
2. Once the seat is at desired height, rotate the seat post clamp lever
