How to Assemble a New Road Bike

Perfect for visual learners Step-by-step tutorial demonstrate how to easily assemble our HASA Road Bike (R4-11) by yourself.

Prepare Jobs
For this job you’ll need several tools. Ideally you should have a repair stand. Other necessary tools include wire cutters, a set of metric allen keys, a pedal wrench and an air pump.

Step 1

Cut the cable tires for the wheels. Note: Please take the wheel out of the crankset arm with care.

Cut the cable tie for the seatpost.

Step 2

Insert the seatpost into the seat tube. Use 4mm Allen key to tight the seat clamp.

Clamp the bike onto a bicycle repair stand

Step 3

Use 4 mm Allen key to remove the stem cap and place the handlebar into the place

Use 4 mm Allen key to tight the bolts. Note: 4 bolts need to be evenly tight.

Adjust the handlebar to your favourite angle

Step 4

Remove all protectors off the bike

Step 5

Place the rear brake cable housing into the cable holder on the frame

Pull the rear brake cable. Note: Please make sure the rear brake cable end in the right position in the lever. Test it by applying brake lever.

Place the front brake cable housing into the brake calliper holder and pull the brake cable

Step 6

Apply some grease on the front wheel skewer

Inter the skewer into front wheel. Note: there are two springs one for right, the other one for left

Please see the picture for spring position

Step 7

Place the front wheel into fork

Please make sure the wheel is the centre of the fork than close the quick release lever to secure the wheel.

Step 8 (Adjust the front brake)

Insert the front brake cable holder on the calliper as the picture

Holder the brake calliper and pull the cable, then use 5mm Allen key to secure the cable once it reaches perfect position

Tight the bolt to secure the brake cable

Close the brake tension adjustment lever

Adjust the brake pads height and make sure the pads could be applied on the wheel’s braking surface. Then leave reasonable extra and cut the brake cable using a cable cutter. Note: Please do not cut too short, you might need to re-assemble the brake cable in the future.

Squeeze the cable end on the brake cable

Step 9(Rear Brake Adjustment)

Insert the rear brake cable into the holder (same as front)

Adjust the brake pads height using 4mm Allen key and make sure the pads could be applied on the wheel’s braking surface

Squeeze the cable end on the brake cable

Leave a bit extra for future use

Step 10 (Pedals installing)

Pedals have different thread. Check the mark on the axle “L” means left pedal, “R” means right pedal. Note: Drive side is right, non drive side is left. Apply some grease on the pedal axle

Turn the right pedal axle clockwise by hand

Lock the axle using a 15mm pedal wrench. Note: Please do not scratch the painting of the crank arm. Reasonably tight, if too loose, the axle would move then potentially would damage the thread of the crank arm. And warranty will not cover that.
