ASSEMBLY
If you choose "No Assembly" your bike will require complete assembly with an exception of the wheels.
If you choose "Assembled by Borealis", there is some assembly required upon receipt. Your bike will be completely assembled and tuned by Borealis, then partially disassembled for shipment. The remaining assembly will require installation of the rear derailleur, chain, fork, seat post, wheels, and handlebars. A multi-tool will be included with your order that has all tools necessary to assemble the bike, with the exception of a torque wrench. If you are not familiar with this level of assembly, we recommend having your local bike shop complete the assembly. Below is a video showing the remaining assembly once you receive the bike.
WHEELS & TIRES
- All bikes come standard with tubes.
- If you order rim tape with your Mulefut rims, we will tape the rims and install the tires with tubes.
- HED Alloy and HED Carbon rims do not require rim tape for tubeless set up.
- Tubes must be removed and tubeless valves installed for tubeless set up. We recommended to have this completed by a professional bicycle mechanic.
SIZE CHART
Based on our research, riders at the heights below will usually take the corresponding frame size. If you’re at a transitional height that spans two sizes, look at the geometry chart to get the Stack and Reach you like based on other bikes you are comfortable.
