HELLO AND WELCOME
THANK YOU FOR PURCHASING A BLACK MOUNTAIN BICYCLE.
WE TAKE GREAT PRIDE IN WHAT WE DO AND HOPE YOU’LL BE EXTREMELY
HAPPY WITH THE BIKE FOR YEARS TO COME. THIS MANUAL WILL TAKE YOU
THROUGH WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE BIKE AND ITS SAFETY
ESSENTIALS. IF THERE IS ANYTHING WE HAVEN’T COVERED HERE OR YOU HAVE
ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CONTACT US.
IMPORTANT
This manual contains important safety informaon and is provided as a guide. The Black
Mountain KAPĒL and HÜTTO bikes feature our unique size-adjustable frame which
requires mechanical adjustment to change between modes. For the safety of yourself and
your child please ensure that you are mechanically condent and able to undertake the
transions between modes.
For guidance, if you can change a at tyre on a bike then you should have no issues, but
if you’re not condent with the steps needed to change a tyre (i.e. removing and re-ng
a wheel, releasing the brake calipers, working with hex keys and bolts etc) then we would
advise you not to try this yourself and instead seek the advice of a qualied bike mechanic.
If you’re unsure of anything covered in this manual there are further guides and videos
available on our website.
Before riding please ensure your child familiarises themselves with the bike in a safe
environment and your child should always wear a helmet.
Torque sengs are provided throughout this manual and summarised on page 48. It is
important that these recommendaons are followed as too much torque may damage
and weaken a component, and too lile torque can lead to looseness, play and failure.
These sengs are provided as a guide for those with mechanical experience. If you do not
have any 'feel' or prior experience with torque sengs, then we advise that you ulise a
torque-wrench or seek help from an experienced bike shop/mechanic.
