Safety - Read This First!

1. Always make sure the stem, handlebar, seat

and wheels are fully tightened by making

sure the quick release levers are ﬁrmly

closed.

2. Make sure the quick release lever for the

folding hinge is securely closed. Refer to

the section on Folding.

3. Do not attach a front bicycle basket to the

handlebars or dangle any bags/objects

from the handlebar/stem system unless

they are designed to speciﬁcally work with

your LIFT.

4. Do not ride on surfaces where the wheels

or pedals could get caught (e.g. on train/

tram tracks, or potholes) and do not ride

directly into bumps or curbs.

5. Do not attempt any stunt riding (eg. jumps,

sharp turns, wheelies).

6. When adjusting the height of your saddle,

if the“Minimum Insertion”marking is

visible on the vertical post then insert the

post deeper into the frame.

7. Wear a regionally certiﬁed, properly ﬁtted

bicycle helmet.

8. The total weight of the rider and backpack

must not exceed 100 kgs (220 lbs).

9. If your model came equipped with

handlebar ends, check that the grips are

tightly secured to the handlebar.

10. Tires should not be inﬂated past the

recommended pressure that is marked on

the sidewall.

11. For night riding, inspect that your bike

reﬂectors are not missing or damaged.

Always have your front and rear lights on

and wear reﬂective gear.

12. Obey all local and national trafﬁc, helmet

laws and never ride while under the

inﬂuence of drugs or alcohol.

13. Before your ﬁrst ride, practise riding in

a safe open area with a smooth surface

that is away from other pedestrians and

vehicles (eg. a vacant parking lot).

LIFT has a stem system that is different from other bicycles.

It is important that you read the “Setting Up The Stem” section!

Improper installation of the stem could result in

handlebar twisting while riding, loss of control, injury or death.

Assembly

This guide provides the basic information to get you going quickly before you ride.

If you are unsure of any aspect of LIFT, please bring your LIFT to a professional bicycle mechanic for ﬁnal assembly.

Visit www.revelo.ca for additional information.

Tools You Need

Step 1: Attach Handlebar

If the handlebar is already attached,go to Step 2:

Setting Up The Stem.

If necessary, temporarily remove the stem collar j

from the handlebar post by loosening the pinch bolt

with an allen key.

Insert vertical handlebar post kdown into the

stem l. Loosen the handlebar post clamp m

to center the handlebar and rotate the handlebar

so the brake levers nare facing towards the front

of the bike.Tighten the handlebar clamp monce

the handlebar is properly positioned.

!Ensure cables are not twisted or pinched.

Step 2: Setting Up The Stem

The Stem Collar jallows for quick centering of the

handlebar and resists twisting by locking into the stem k.

Carefully follow all instructions to avoid handlebar twisting

during riding and potential injury.

2a: Remove Stem Collar

Using an allen key, loosen the pinch bolt lon the stem collar and

temporarily remove the collar jfrom the handlebar post m.

Some illustrations may not be exactly as shown.

NOTE: The stem

collar for 2021

and newer is silver.

Some illustrations

may show a black

stem collar but the

install is identical.

(1) Pedal wrench (models equipped with folding pedals require a 15mm wrench.

(2) 4mm allen key to adjust the stem collar. (3) 5mm allen key to adjust the

handlebar clamp and magnet plate. (4) Pump to inﬂate tires.

LIFT_Manual_0321_cs6.indd 3 2021-03-07 6:50 PM

Step 2: Setting Up The Stem (continued...)

2b: Set Handlebar Position for Riding

Open quick release levers n. Slide the handlebar to the

desired riding height and turn it until it is perpendicular to

the front wheel. Firmly close both quick release levers n.

If necessary, rotate the adjustment knob oclockwise to

increase clamping strength and counter-clockwise to loosen.

!Before every ride ensure the stem collar is fully mated and quick releases are ﬁrmly closed so

that the handlebar can not twist !

Test clamping pressure by placing the front wheel between your feet and

attempt to twist the handlebar. If handlebar twists, more clamping pressure is

required. (Use the adjustment knob to increase clamping pressure).

3Optimal clamping pressure typically leaves a small impression on the palm of

your hand or thumb.

2c: Identify Stem Collar Tooth & Notch

The stem collar tooth pis designed to mate into

a notch qin the stem (ensure there is no gap).

2d: Install Stem Collar

Slide the stem collar jback onto the handlebar post m

with the notched tooth pfacing towards the bike.

The handlebar can always be lowered for thin proﬁle walking or folding as needed (refer to the

Folding and Carrying & Rolling sections). For instant height adjustment before riding, slide the

handlebar up until the stem collar locks into the stem.Then, ﬁrmly close both levers.

2e: Bolt Stem Collar

Mate the stem collar tooth pinto the stem notch q

(do not leave gap). Tighten pinch bolt

with allen key.

2f: Close Levers Before Riding

Ensure that both quick release levers nare ﬁrmly

closed prior to riding.

LIFT_Manual_0321_cs6.indd 4 2021-03-07 6:50 PM

Step 4: Attach Seat

Open seat post lever jand insert seat post kinto frame l.

Tighten seat post clamp so that the lever is folded over and

closed.

If necessary, rotate the adjustment knob mclockwise to

increase clamping strength and counter-clockwise to loosen.

!Ensure seat post is inserted so that the minimum insertion

line is not visible above the clamp.

Step 3: Attach Pedals

Left Pedal: Insert pedal axle into crank arm threads and turn

axle counter-clockwise. Start by using ﬁngers ﬁrst then tighten

with a 15mm wrench.

Right Pedal: Insert pedal by turning axle clockwise.

!Pedals tighten opposite to each other. Left (L) pedal tightens

counter-clockwise.Right (R) pedal tightens clockwise.

(For models with Detachable Pedals, skip this section and refer

to the user manual included with the pedals for installation).

Push pedal inwards towards frame to release locking pegs j,

then rotate to fold k. Reverse procedure to unfold pedals.

Folding Pedal installation requires a 15mm wrench.

Using Your LIFT

Bike Fit

LIFT is incredibly

lightweight and built

for spontaneous living.

Go everywhere you

desire at any given

moment.

The LIFT’s design

allows for a fully

adjustable bike rider ﬁt

from 147-186cm

(4’10”-6’2”) & up to

100 kgs (220lbs).

Revelo’s patented

THINstem rotating

handlebar system

provides instant rider

height adjustment and

a thin walking proﬁle.

Step 5: Tighten Magnet Plate

Using a 5mm allen key, tighten the magnet plate so that the plate is perpendicular

to the ground. Test and adjust if needed by folding the bike following the“Z-fold”

instructions in the next section. The whole magnet should contact the plate for

maximum holding strength when the bike is folded and rolled.

LIFT_Manual_0321_cs6.indd 5 2021-03-07 6:51 PM

Folding

!During the “break-in” period, the frame hinge may exhibit

some stiffness.This will improve quickly with regular use.

LIFT is one of the fastest folding, easiest rolling and most

portable performance folding bikes on the market!

1: Open Fork Mounted Kickstand

Open the fork mounted kickstand jto the folding position.

2: Adjust Right Pedal Position

Set your right pedal kto the 7 o’clock position.This prevents

pedals from tangling with brake cables during folding.

3: Lower & Rotate Handlebar

Release both stem quick release levers then drop the

handlebar down ltowards the front tire. Pivot the handlebar

90° clockwise mthen lock into place with levers n.

4: Lower Seat

Lower the seat as much as possible.

Tighten seat post clamp o.

5: Unlock & Open Frame Lever

The frame is locked in place with a hinge clamp and lever.

To unlock, ﬁrst position yourself to the left side of the bike.

Place your right palm over the lever then press the lever against

the frame while sliding the button pat the top of the lever

towards the front of the bike; simultaneously grab the lever

from below and pull the lever out away from the bike.

3Folding the pedals (or removing them if equipped with

detachable pedals) helps with the folding procedure.

The hinge clamp is factory set for optimal clamping. Over time, if opening/closing

the lever becomes difﬁcult or loose, adjust the ball head screw qbehind the lever.

Rotating the screw clockwise will create a looser hinge and counter-clockwise to

tighten the hinge. Optimal clamping is one that provides a moderate“snap”.

When securely relocking the hinge, ensure that the ball head screw qbehind the lever is not visible.

!Do not pinch or over-twist cabling.

Gears

Your multi-speed LIFT has a derailleur drive train. Low gears (down to 1) require less pedalling effort and are

ideal for steep hills. For ﬂatter terrain and faster speed, shift to a higher gear (higher number).

!Only shift gears while the bike/rear wheel is moving forward and the chain is under tension.

Maintenance

LIFT has a warranty of 5 years on the frame and fork, and 1 year on non-wear items including quick releases and

frame hinge lever. In addition to regular bike maintenance and annual tune up, it is important to also maintain

(1) stem quick releases, and (2) the hinge locking system. Please refer to the videos in the tutorial section online:

“Maintaining the THINstem Quick Release” and “Operating the Revelo LIFT Frame Hinge”. Most routine

service below can be performed by the owner. Consult your local bicycle repair shop as required.

Clean the frame of dirt and debris as needed using

a soft, damp cloth, warm water and non-detergent

based soap. Do not use power washers. Relubricate

the chain with a chain lubricant only.

Periodically check to ensure that fastening

bolts have not loosened. Hand tighten with the

appropriate tool as necessary. Do NOT use

power tools to tighten any bolts.

Check brake pad wear. Adjust if they do not

properly hit the wheel rim.

Periodically check tire pressure as indicated on the

sidewall.

Check for missing spokes and for non-trued

(wobbly) wheels.

Check headset stiffness.While squeezing the front

brake, rock the bike back and forth. Clunking noises

could indicate a loose headset.

Check frame for any noticeable signs of fraying or

cracks.

Wheels

If your model is equipped with a Quick Release

wheelset, you may want to remove it occasionally

for eg. travel, storage or service.

Front Wheel

1. Disengage the brake quick-release mechanism

to move the brakes away from the rim.

2. Open the quick-release wheel lever by pulling

away from the wheel.

3. While holding the fork with one hand, pull the

wheel out from the fork dropouts.

Rear Wheel

1. Set the gear to its highest position.This moves the

chain and derailleur to the outermost position.

2. Disengage the brake quick-release mechanism to

move the brakes away from the rim.

3. Open the quick-release wheel lever by pulling

away from the wheel.

4. While standing behind the bike, use your right

hand to pull backward on the derailleur body.

5. Use your other hand and pull the wheel out from

the fork dropouts.
