Attach the handlebar to the stem, ensuring it is centered and the brake levers and shifters are positioned comfortably. Tighten the stem bolts securely according to manufacturer specifications.

3.3 Pedalinstallation

Identify the left (L) and right (R) pedals. The left pedal has a left-hand thread (tightens counter-clockwise), and the right pedal has a right-hand thread (tightens clockwise). Apply a small amount of grease to the threads and tighten them firmly into the crank arms using a pedal wrench.
