2 INTRODUCTION Congratulations on the purchase of your new K2 Bike®. Since 1989, when we jump started the suspension revolution with the intro duction of the Flexstem,™ we’ve been at the forefront of suspension innovation. In 1990, we released the first production full suspension moun tain bike ever— the original Pro-Flex®.
3 5 . Brake carefully. Apply steady, even pressure to both brake levers. T oo much pressur e on the rear brake can lock up the wheel and lead to loss of control. T oo much pressure on the front brake can cause the rear wheel to lift off the ground or the front brake to lock up and slip out from under you.
4 Proper Frame Sizing Standover Height Most K2 Bike frames are offered in four sizes. We design our bikes with as low of a standover height as possible. When sizing a frame, a minimum of three inches of clearance between the rider's crotch and the top tube of the bicycle is required.
5 4 Quick Release Wheels - Are the quick releases tightened properly? CAUTION: Improperly adjusted wheel quick releases can be extremely dangerous, and can result in failure during use and severe injuries. The wheels on your new K2 Bike are attached with convenient single lever quick releases, allowing them to be easily removed and reinstalled.
6 Cleanliness - K eep Y our Bike Clean! Remove dirt and mud with water , mild detergent, and a damp cloth. Don't spray the mud and dirt off of your bike with a pressuri zed hose. If the bearings in the headset, hubs, or bottom bracket grind or sound sandy, they may need to be serviced or adjusted.
7 5. With the heel of your hand, rotate the quick release lever in toward the bicycle. Make sure the lever is tucked against the frame or fork so that it is safe from trail hazards which might force it open. As you rotate the lever in toward the bike, you will feel resistance.
8 Pedals T oe Clips/Straps If your bike is equipped with toe clips/straps, it is important to familiarize yourself with their use. If you do not have prev ious experience with the system, practice entry and exit before you ride. Position your bike beside a wall and hold yourself up while you practice.
9 4. Wheel, Crank, and Headset Bearings: Once a year you should have your dealer inspect, lubricate, and adjust your bike. If you ride many miles, or frequently ride in off road or muddy conditions, have your bike checked more often. Brakes The brakes on your new K2 Bike should have been completely adjusted by your dealer when new.
