36 - Install the pedals

Identify the left (drive side) right (non-drive side) pedals by 
the markings on the threaded axle. The drive side (the side 
that the chain is on) is clockwise threaded, the non-drive 
side is counter clockwise threaded. Install the pedals on the 
appropriate side. 

37 - Install the U-Tubes

Before installing the U-Tubes, please take note that the 
rear insertion end on each U-Tube is slightly longer than the 
insertion end on the front end of the U-Tube.

Determine if you would like to have the U-tubes installed in 
the wide setting (shown on the left side of the bike pictured 
below) or the narrow setting (shown on the right side). In the 
wide setting, the U-tubes will extend 6" out from the frame. In 
the narrow setting, they will extend 5.25" out from the frame.

If you would like to switch the width setting 

on your U-Tubes to narrow or wide:

Press the spring pin button in and push or pull the spring pin 
elbow on the inside of the U-Tube until the spring pin button 
pops out and into the setting hole. Needlenose pliers might 
be needed to help with this.
