Both frame quick releases have an adjustment nut that controls the clamping force. A

CLAMPING FORCE IS INSUFFICIENT TO CLOSE AND LOCK EITHER QUICK RELEASE,
DO NOT RIDE THE BIKE! See your Authorized Giant Retailer for adjustment. MAKE
SURE THAT THE FUNCTION OF THE ADJUSTMENT NUT AND ALL QUICK RELEASES ARE
DEMONSTRATED BY THE BICYCLE DEALER BEFORE USING THE CLIP BICYCLE!
