1. About This Manual .

This StreetStrider 3i and 7i Owner’s Manual contains important assembly, maintenance, safety and performance information. It was written to

help you get the most performance, comfort, enjoyment and safety out of your new StreetStrider. Keep this manual handy for future reference.

IMPORTANT: If your StreetStrider was purchased unassembled, read this manual before you assemble it. The Limited Warranty

found in this manual on page 17 applies only to StreetStriders that comply with the assembly instructions in this Owner’s Manual.

IMPORTANT: You should read this manual before you go out on your first ride.

Riding a StreetStrider can be a hazardous activity even under the best of circumstances. It is highly recommended that your first stride on your

new StreetStrider be taken in a controlled environment, away from cars, obstacles and other cyclists, and wearing your helmet.

Proper maintenance of your StreetStrider is your responsibility as it reducesthe risk of injury. This manual contains many IMPORTANT,

CAUTION and WARNING statements concerning the consequences of failure to maintain or inspect your StreetStrider. When inspecting your

StreetStrider, be certain to secure all parts properly as described in Table 2-1. Under-tightening or over-tighteningcan result in component

damage. StreetStrider parts have metric hardware - always use the correct tools.

IMPORTANT: It is impossible to predict every condition that will occur while striding. StreetStrider (the Company) has made no

representation about the safe use of the StreetStrider under all conditions. There are risks associated with the use of any

StreetStrider that cannot be predicted or avoided, and the Company recommends safe and cautious striding.

WARNING Failure to read and comply with all assembly, safety, performance and

maintenance requirements and warnings, and unsafe or improper use of the StreetStrider

could result in serious injury or death.

3. Assembling the StreetStrider 3i and 7i …… …. …

To assemble your StreetStrider 3i or 7i,first view the StreetStrider assembly videos provided to you on the StreetStrider DVD, then follow the steps

and photos in this chapter. Included in the shipping box are the StreetStrider in parts, and asmall bundle in the top tray inside the box containing

the StreetStrider Owner’s Manual, Assembly Checklist, StreetStrider DVD, tool kit, bagsof assembly parts, 2 spare inner tubes, and reflectors. The

tool kit contains a 19 mm socket, 17 x 14, 15 x 13, 14 x 12, and 13 x 12 mm open end wrenches, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 8 mm hex wrenches, and 2

tire levers. Parts include: a front beam bearing assembly, 28 mm crank arm bolts, a shifter push rod for the 3i, and a cassette pulley for the 7i.

3.1. Unpacking and Prep (see video) .

Figure 3.1-1. Unpacking

The StreetStrider box has graphics to show which side is up (Fig. 3.1-1a). The top tray in the box holds the parts bundle (Fig. 3.1-1b),and the

support layers underneath protect the StreetStrider components. The front wheel assembly and rear wheel are the next 2 layers (Fig. 3.1-1c).

Remove the wheels and set aside.

Figure 3.1-2. Removing Padding

The main frame assembly is on the bottom layer (Fig. 3.1-2a). Using the corner cut-outs to grip the bottom cardboard panel, lift that panel and the

folded StreetStrider out of the box, set the unit on top of the box or table,and remove the remaining zip ties (Fig. 3.1-2b). Set the foot platform

assemblies (lower pole, ski, foot platform, crank arm) aside, then lift the frame with upper poles attached by cables off of the lower panel and set

upright on the table (Fig. 3.1-2c).

Figure 3.1-3. Moving the Chain

Remove the packing material from the chain that’s wrapped around the right fender stay (Fig. 3.1-3a). Move the loop of chain down the fender

stay, around the dropout (Fig. 3.1-3b), and forward along the chain stay so the loop of chain can wrap around the bottom bracket shell (Fig. 3.1-

3c).

IMPORTANT: Save the box and packing material as they must be used to repack the StreetStrider for any returns.

TERMINOLOGY: The right and left sides of the StreetStrider refer to sides when one is striding.

83i and 7i / Owner’s Manual

3.2. Wheels (see video) .

Figure 3.2-1. Front Beam Shaft

Retrieve the front beam shaft assembly and take the cap, bearings and back plate off the shaft (Fig. 3.2-1a). Roll the StreetStrider onto it’s left side

and loosen the set screw under the front beam shaft tube with a 3 mm hex wrench (Fig. 3.2-1b). Slide the shaft all the way into the tube from the

rear so that the flat section on the rear end of the shaft fits just above the 3 mm set screw (Fig. 3.2-1c), and then tighten the set screw.

IMPORTANT: Make sure there is some grease on the shaft and bearings.

Figure 3.2-2. Front Beam and Wheels

Slide the back plate and one of the tapered bearings, with taper facing forward, onto the shaft (Fig. 3.2-2a). Unfold the front wheels on the front

beam and set the assembly in front of the StreetStrider frame. Lift the frame up and slide the shaft with rear bearing into the bearing housing in the

center of the beam (Fig. 3.2-2b). Insert the other tapered bearing onto the shaft with the taper facing rearward (Fig. 3.2-2c). Place the black cap

over the front of the beam and shaft, insert the 10 mm screw, and tighten with the 8 mm hex wrench (Fig. 3.2-2d).

IMPORTANT: We recommend adding a liquid thread locker to the threads of the 10 mm screw.

Figure 3.2-3. Steering Linkages

Lower the left steering linkage so the outboard rod end can be secured to the left steering knuckle (Fig. 3.2-3a). Unscrew the 13 mm nylon lock nut

from the rod end stud, insert the threaded stud through the hole at the forward end of the steering knuckle, secure the stud with the nylon nut having

one washer above and one washer below the knuckle (Fig. 3.2-3b),and then hold the stud and tighten the nut using two 13 mm wrenches (Fig.

3.2-3c). Repeat steps to attach the right steering linkage (Fig. 3.2-3d). IMPORTANT: Inflate tires to 80-85 psi.

Figure 3.2-4. Front Brake Cables

Route the front brake cables from the cable

doubler on either side of the head tube, under the

steering linkage and over the front beam (Fig. 3.2-

4a). Insert the left and right cable and housing

into the barrel adjuster on the left and right brakes,

respectively (Fig. 3.2-4b).

3i and 7i Owner’s Manual 9

Figure 3.2-5. Rear Wheel on 3i

Retrieve the 3-speed rear wheel, remove any cardboard packing from the right axle end that

covers the sprocket, remove the black plastic cover pressed over the silver acorn nut on the left

axle end, then lift the rear fender, slide the wheel between the dropouts and rest the fender on

the tire (Fig. 3.2-5a). On the right side, loop chain over sprocket and unscrew hex nut so there

is an exposed section of axle that can slide into the dropout (Fig. 3.2-5b). On the left side, align

the brake rotor with the brake caliper gap and unscrew acorn nut so there is an exposed section

of axle that can slide into the dropout (Fig. 3.2-5c). Slide axle into dropouts all the way forward,

align the tongue of the yellow non-turn washer on the left axle end with dropout slot, and finger

tighten the axle nuts on both ends (Fig. 3.2-5d).When finished, rear wheel axle is in dropouts

and fully forward, axle nuts are finger tight, and chain is looped over sprocket at the rear and

over bottom bracket shell at the front (Fig. 3.2-5e). IMPORTANT: Inflate tires to 80-85 psi.

Figure 3.2-6. Rear Wheel Hub on 7i

Retrieve the 7-speed rear wheel, remove any cardboard packing from the right axle end that covers the sprocket, remove the black plastic cover

pressed over the silver acorn nut on the left axle end. Remove the silver acorn nut and yellow non-turn washer from the right axle end (Fig. 3.2-6a).

Locate the 2 yellow dots on the silver washer (Fig. 3.2-6b). Locate the shifting cassette pulley and the lock ring in the parts bag (Fig. 3.2-6c).Place

the shifting cassette pulley over the axle so that the yellow dots on the washer and the cassette pulley are in line (Fig. 3.2-6d).!

Figure 3.2-7. Rear Wheel Hub on 7i

Put the lock ring over the axle so that the 2 yellow dots are adjacent (Fig. 3.2-7a). Rotate the lock ring 45° clockwise to lock the cassette pulley

onto the hub (Fig. 3.2-7b).Replace the yellow non-turn washer with tongue pointing rearward, and screw the acorn nut back onto the axle a few

turns (Fig. 3.2-7c).

Figure 3.2-8. Rear Wheel on 7i

Lift the rear fender, slide the wheel between the dropouts and rest the fender on the tire (Fig. 3.2-8a). On the right side, loop chain over sprocket.

On the left side, align the brake rotor with the brake caliper gap.Unscrew acorn nuts on each end of the axle so there is an exposed section of axle

under the non-turn washers that can slide into the dropouts (Fig. 3.2-8b).Slide axle into dropouts all the way forward, align the tongue of the non-

turn washers with dropout slots, finger tighten the acorn nuts on both ends,and loop chain from hub sprocket at the rear and over bottom bracket

shell at the front (Fig. 3.2-8c). IMPORTANT: Inflate tires to 80-85 psi.

3.3. Poles and Skis (see video) .

Figure 3.3-1. Head Tube

Using the 4 mm hex wrench, remove the 4 screws and caps from the pole clamp at Joint #1 (Fig. 3.3-1a). Rest the upper poles on the main frame

and unfold the head tube (Fig. 3.3-1b). Slide the quick release clamp pin to the right (Fig. 3.3-1c), lift the head tube to the full upright position and

close the quick release lever (Fig. 3.3-1d). !

Figure 3.3-2. Lower Poles

Retrieve the right foot platform assembly (lower pole, ski, foot platform, and crank arm with chain ring) and position next to right side of the frame
