Assembly Procedure

Arrange the frame on the floor

Layalltheitemsoutonalargeworkarea.Laythebikeonitsleftside.Arrangethe

partsinthegeneralconfigurationofthebicycle,takingcarethatcablesflow

smoothlyfromtheframeandintothePivotCage.Makesuretheyarenottwisted;

rotatetheSliderandhandlebarassemblyifnecessary.

Fit the slider into the boom

RotatethechainstayaroundthebottombracketuntiltheFrontDerailleurisabout

0.5”(1cm)fromtheBoom.LoosentheChainstayClampboltsifnecessary.

InserttheSliderintotheBoom,looseningtheBoomClampifnecessary.

Connect the chainstays to the fork legs

Puttherearoftheframeintotheboxwiththeforkshangingoveroneendofthe

box,supportedbehindthefrontbrake.Thiswillallowyoutomoreeasilyfitthe

chainstay.

Unwraptherearderailleurandcheckitscableispositionedalongtherearofthefork

leg.

Unwrapthechainandarrangeinalargeloop,withthechainrunningoverthesmall

chainring.Notethatbeforeconnectingthechainstayarmsthechainhastogofrom

thetopofthechainringtotheinsideoftheforkleg.

Gentlyspringapartthechainstaysarmssothecupsoneachendcanfitoverthefork

dropouts.Thecupsshouldclickonandthenallowthechainstaytoeasilyrotate

aroundtheforkdropouts.

Atthispoint,checktheboltsarelooseontheclampsthatconnectchainstaytothe

crankbearings.

Fit the slider to the top of the fork

Thefitoftheslidertotheforkcarriesadjustmentfromtorsolengthandarmlength,

seebelowsectiononArmAdjustments.

TofittheSlidertothetopofthefork,arrangethecablessotheyexitinfrontofthe

forksteerer.

TwoPivotCageboltsgothroughthePivotCageandintothePivotClamp,oneleft

andoneright.IftheseboltsdonotalignwiththeholesinthePivotClamp,checkthe

BoomClampisloose.Ifneeded,alsoloosenthePivotClampbolts,andbesureto

retightenthem.

LeavetheTwoPivotCageboltsfingertightfornow.

Fit the headrest

Fourcircularclampsholdtheheadrest.Withtheboltsfirmedupforshipping,to

avoidloosingboltsandnuts,theclampsmayhavebeensqueezedandmayseemtoo

small.Loosentheboltstillthereisnothreadprotrudingfromthenut.Fittheendsof

theheadrestintotheclamps,pushtheheadrestdownasfarasitwillgoforshort

torsoridersandashighasitwillgoforlongtorsoriders.Adjusttheheadrestsothat

thecushionsupportsthebaseoftheskull.Notethepocketinthebackofthe

cushion‐cover,usefulforcarryingasparetube.

Therearethreepairsofholesontheseatback,youcanusetheupperpairorthe

lowerpairincombinationwiththemiddlepair.

CheckthereisVelcrohookfittedtotheinsidecurveoftheheadresttubingto

preventtheheadrestpadmovingduringriding.Ifnot,borrowaninchorsofrom

eachVelcrostripthatcomeswiththeseatback.



Fit the wheels, check the brakes

Wheelsfitintheusualmanner.Placethefrontdrivewheelinthedropouts,thenlift

itout,loopthechainandreseattheaxleintothefork.Thisissometimesaneasier

approach.Ensurebothwheelsarefullyseatedintheirdropouts.

Brakesarealreadycabled,butiftherearcablehousinghaspoppedoutofoneofthe

cablestopsontheframe,thenitmustbereturned.Todothis,withtherearwheel

removed,squeezethebrakecaliperstogethertocreateslackinthehousing.Therear

brakecablegoesdowntherightsideofthedowntube,withitshousingterminatedin

acablestopateitherendofthedowntube.

Reattach the gear cables

Therearderailleurcableremainsattachedtotherearderailleur;thereisnoneedto

removeit.Ensuretherightgearshiftleverisinthefullyforwardposition,andthen

pressthederailleuracrosstoloosenthetensiononthecablehousing.Reinsertthe

cablehousinginthecablestopsontherightfork.Typicallythelowercablestopisthe

oneyouneedtoreconnectthehousinginto,butitcouldbeboth.

Thefrontderailleurcablehasbeenreleasedfromthefrontderailleurforshipping,

nowitcanbeunwrapped,threadedandattachedtothefrontderailleur.

Unwrapthecable,andthreaditthroughthecablestopontheboom,foundnearthe

boomclampontheleftsideoftheframe.Checkthatthiscableadjusteriswoundall

thewayin.Thecablethentravelsnexttotheboomandaroundthefrontofthe

crank.Threadthecablethroughthecableguideonthecrankhousing,thenbetween

thecrankhousingandthechainstayassembly,thenfinallytotheFrontDerailleur.

BeforeattachingtotheFD,slidea25mm(1”)segmentofblackgearcablehousing

overthecableend,andusethissegmenttoprotectthecablewhereitpassesover

thechainstay.Attachthecableasperthemanufacturersinstructions.Ifyour

VendettahasaShimanoUltegraFD,putthecableoverthesmallnipple,foundonthe

clampingarea,thenundertheclampingplateandtighten.Pullonthecabletoensure

thereisminimalslack,asinthefollowingpicture:

TheFDshifterisafrictiontype.Tomakethethumbleveroperatemorefirmly.

tightentheboltonthesideoftheshifter.

Asegmentedcablehousingisused.Aftersettlingallsizingadjustmentstoyourown

personalneeds,itispossibletoremovehousingsegmentstoshortencablehousings

foramoretidyappearanceandtoavoidunnecessarydrag.

Carry out adjustments to size

Bysittingonthebike,theridercanmakeroughsizingadjustments.Finaladjustments

canbemadeafterriding,whentherider’sbodycantakeupitstrueridingpositionon

theseat.

Theseadjustmentsshouldbereviewedaftertheriderhasbecomeproficientat

handlingthebike.Adjustmentsshouldbereviewedinthelightofhowthebike

ergonomicsfeelswhentherideristiredyettryingtostillgofast,asthatiswhenpoor

adjustmentismostreadilyidentified.(Sometimeshoweveritisjustthebodybeing

tired!)

Thefronttrianglechangesitsgeometrywhenadjustmentsaremadeforleglength

becausethetopofthetriangle,comprisingtheBoomandSlider,changeslength.

EachcornerofthetriangleneedstobeloosenedbeforetheSlidercanadjustinthe

Boomtoaccommodateadifferentleglength.

Leg Adjustments

Onceassembled,pleasenotethefollowingcriticalprocedureforadjustingtheleg

lengthonyournewVendetta:

1)LoosentheBBringclampsaroundtheoutboardbearings.Fortherightside

clamp,itmaybenecessarytopasstheallenkeythroughthecrankspider

andtopositionthespiderappropriately.

2)Releasethequickreleasefrontaxleskewer.

3)LoosentheBoomclampandadjustforleglength.

4)TightentheBoomclamp.

5)TightentheBBringclampsaroundtheoutboardbearings.Takenotethat

thecrankhousing(orBottomBracket)iscenteredbetweenthepairofring

clamps.Checkalsothatthespiderofthecrankdoesnottouchtherightside

ringclampwhenpedaling.

6)Securethequickreleasefrontaxleskewer

Forshortx‐seamsashortboomisavailable.Useoftheshortboomwillnecessitate

removingsomelengthfromtheSlider.

Arm Adjustments

Handlebarpositionadjustmentisnotedabove.Forminimumairresistances,

handlebarsshouldbepositionedsothattheytrackasclosetotheforearmas

possible.ThehandlebarscanrotateasmallamountintheHandlebarClamp.

HandlebarscanalsobeloweredbyloweringthePivotClamp.Removeitandoneor

twospacersbelowit,thenreturntheclampandplacethespacer(s)aboveit.To

removethePivotClampfirstremovethecapboltfromthetopoftheforkneck,then

loosentheboltsholdingthePivotClamp.Rearrangeandretighten:tightenthecap

boltandthenbeforeretighteningthePivotClamp,ensureitisalignedcorrectlywith

theslider–testthePivotCageboltswillassemble–thenremoveandtightenthe

PivotClamp.

Thereachofthehandlebarcanbeadjustedbyalteringwhichholesinthepivotcage

areutilized.

WARNING

Donotforcethehandlebartorotate,oryoumaydamagethecablesastheypass

fromtheinsideoftheHandlebartotheinsideoftheSlider.Damagedcablescould

causesevereinjuryordeath.

• Shorttorso,removethepivotclampandspacers,putthepivotclampback

andthenthespacers,thiswilllowerthehandlebarclamps.

• Longtorso,havethepivotclampwithspacersunderneathit.

• Shortarms,fittheslidertothefirstpairofholesinthePivotCage.(Count

theholesinthePivotClampfromthefrontofthebike.)Thiswillputthe

handlebarsclosertothebody.

VendettaAssemblyManual

06/29/11VendettaAssemblyNotesV1.2.docPage4of4

• Longarms,fittheslidertothefourthpairofholesinthePivotCage.(Count

theholesinthePivotClampfromthefrontofthebike.)Thiswillputthe

handlebarsfurtherfromthebody.

Formediumriders,interpolatebetweentheseadjustmentpositions.

Ensure clearance for your Front Derailleur

Note,Ifthepivotclampisnotatthetopofthesteeringstack,withallspacersbelow

it,thentheremaybeinterferencebetweentheFrontDerailleurandtheBoomwhen

attemptingtoadjustleglengthforlargex‐seamriders.
