Installing A Fender On Your Nakto Electric Bike

Installing a fender on a Nakto electric bike is a complex process that requires a number of tools, including a 4mm and 3mm allen key, and an 18mm, 15mm, and 10mm wrench. The first step is to remove the front tire, followed by the headlight, which is secured in the same place as the fender. The fender is then placed in the middle of the front fork, with the notch on its top slotting underneath the headlight. The fender is then tightened into place, with care taken to ensure it doesn't rub against the tire. The headlight is then replaced and adjusted to illuminate the road ahead without blinding oncoming traffic. It is recommended that you consult a certified, reputable bike mechanic to assist with the installation.

Removing the mounting bolts from the fork

To remove the mounting bolts from the fork of a Nakto electric bike, you will need a 4mm and 3mm allen key to assemble and mount the fenders. You will also need an 18mm, 15mm, and 10mm wrench to remove the wheel and other parts of the bike to make the installation easier. Before installing the front fender, you will need to remove the front tire.

To remove the bolts, first use the 4mm allen key to slot in the front and hold the bolt in place. Then, use the 10mm wrench to loosen the nut on the back. Once the nut is loose, pull the bolt out.

It is important to note that the adjustment of the front brake system can be difficult. If you are unsure about any part of the process, it is recommended that you consult a certified, reputable bike mechanic for assistance.

Assembling the fender

To assemble the fender on your Nakto electric bike, you will need a 4mm and 3mm allen key, as well as an 18mm, 15mm and 10mm wrench. Before installing the front fender, you will need to remove the front tire.

First, place the notch of the fender against the hole on the front of the fork. Then, remove the headlight using a 4mm allen key and 10mm wrench. The allen key will slot in the front and hold the bolt in place as the 10mm wrench loosens the nut on the back. Pull the whole bolt out and then position the front fender in place.

Once the fender is in place, put the headlight back with the bolt and thread it into the notch and fork hole. Push it all the way up to prevent the fender from rubbing against the tire. When the parts are properly aligned, tighten it down with the same allen key and wrench you used before.

Finally, centre the headlight and adjust the angle slightly downwards to illuminate the road ahead without blinding oncoming traffic. Loosen the headlight angle adjustment bolt with a Phillips-head screwdriver, tilt the headlight to the optimal position, and then tighten it in place securely.
