ASSEMBLING THE TRYBIKE

We have already parally assembled the
Trybike. We would love to put the enre

bike together for you beforehand, but then

we would have to ship it in a large box. This
would make transportaon very expensive,
it would be bad for the environment and
no fun for the poor postman.

Thank you for buying an original Trybike!
Or maybe you got it as a present, which is
even nicer!

The Trybike can be used by children from
one year old upwards. Uniquely, it can

grow with your child, because you can turn

it from a tricycle into a bicycle with only
some minor adjustments.

You can also ip the frame of the bicycle
into a high posion so children can use it
even longer, or you can have it at that same
height as the tricycle for loads of fun!

We have discovered that children with a

disability and children who nd it dicult
to keep their balance can really benet
from the Trybike as a tricycle, both in the
lower and in the higher posion.

WE ARE
PIM AND ALEX
OF CO&CO

Two brothers who are crazy about cycling.

We come from the Netherlands, where
almost everyone has one or two bikes.
We are enthusiasc cyclists, and we have
been imporng loads of fun toys, especially

ones with wheels – including balance bikes

– for more than 10 years by now. In 2014,

we started developing our own balance
bike, applying all of our knowledge as toy

sellers and enthusiasc cyclists during the

process. We had great fun designing the
perfect balance bike: durable, strong, and,

to top it all, darned good-looking to boot!
The result: the Trybike, which is exactly the

kind of bike we would have loved to have

had as kids!

WHAT IS IN THE BOX?

• Frame with front forks and seat
aached to it.

• 3 wheels (due to safety regulaons
without caps)

• Bag with long rear axle with three

aluminium pipes, four short black nylon

bushings and two long nuts

• 2 short wheel axles with each 2 long
black nylon bushings and 2 long nuts

• Seat cover

• Handlebar

• Safety pad for handlebar

• 2 handlebar grips

• 2 Allen keys

• Trybike user instrucons

FITTING THE FRONT WHEEL INTO THE FRAME

Insert the black long nylon bushings into the wheel, with

the narrow part of the bushing ng into the bearing of
the wheel. Posion the wheel with the black nylon bushings

between the front forks so that the holes of the front forks

are exactly aligned with the holes of the bushings. Insert
the axle through the front forks, the bushings and therefore
also through the wheel. Before you push the axle all the
way through, put the nut on one side of the axle, giving it
a few turns. Push the axle enrely through the hole and t

FITTING THE HANDLEBAR INTO THE FRONT FORKS

Place the safety pad between the holes at the top of the
front forks and push the wooden handlebar through

the front forks and the safety pad. You will noce two

grooves on the handlebar. Insert the handlebar so the
grooves end up outside the front forks. Fasten the two

screws at the boom of the top “ball” of the front forks
in the handlebar to secure it, see arrow in picture. Now t
the grips to the handlebar. If this is dicult then dampen
the grips with a lile water on the inside and try again.

CONVERTING THE TRYBIKE FROM A
LOW BICYCLE INTO A HIGH BICYCLE

First, dismantle the handlebar and the front wheel, then
loosen the axle that ts through the frame and the front
forks. One nut is located on top of the front forks, under
the handlebar, this nut is sealed to the axle. The other nut
is located at the boom, above the front wheel. Loosen the
boom nut. Now pull the axle from the top out o the front

forks.

Once the axle has been separated from the front forks, carefully slide the frame out of the
front forks. Cauon! Make sure the frame is in the middle of the front forks so the second
axle can be pushed out through the slot. Do not force it, because it could damage the
wood. Keep a hold of the protecve caps so they do not fall.

The second axle is a safety axle; it makes

sure that the forks do not spread too far and

prevents ngers from being pinched between
the frame and the front forks. So it is very
important to posion this axle correctly.

Flip the frame around so the seat is upside
down and slide the frame carefully into the
front forks. Make sure the frame is in the
middle of the front forks so the second axle

can be pushed in through the slot. Check

that the protecve caps are back in posion
between the frame and the front forks.

Make sure the holes of the front forks are aligned with the holes of the frame. Slide the
axle with the sealed nut at the top from the top downwards into the front forks and
through the frame. Tighten the nut at the boom and check that the front forks rotate
smoothly in the frame. Also check that the space between the frame and the front forks is
at least 12 mm (roughly the thickness of your lile nger) when you move the forks all the
way to the le or right. Now reassemble the handlebar and the front wheel.

Detach the seat from the frame and t it on the other side of the frame. Now use holes 1
and 3 to fasten the seat. See the secon on adjusng the seat.

TRYBIKE

THE GROWBIKE

The seat and seat post have already been ed. Before

use, secure the seat post with two bolts through hole
1 and hole 2, see picture. The third hole is used for

posioning the seat in the high Trybike mode.

The seat post is wedged prey ghtly into the frame, so
you may have to pull the frame apart a lile to t the seat

post when you want to lower or raise the seat.

The Trybike grows with your child by ipping the frame to
the high mode. Use holes 1 and 3 for the high mode, as

shown in the picture.

FITTING THE SEAT COVER

The boom of the seat cover has a Velcro fastening. Place

the cover on the seat, with the Trybike logo facing to the back

and make sure that the Velcro fastenings are properly stuck

together. Pull the sides of the seat cover over the seat and
fasten the underside of the seat.

CORRECT SEAT HEIGHT

The seat will be at the correct height when your child can

just reach the oor with his or her heels. If the seat is too
low in tricycle mode, the heels tend to touch the back axle,
and in bicycle mode, the child’s feet will end up dragging

slightly. So, ensure the seat is not too low.

SSEMBLY

OF THE LONG REAR AXLE AND THE TWO REAR WHEELS

Remove the parts of the long axle, please note: one nut

is sealed and only one nut can be unscrewed. Insert the

short aluminium pipe in between the rear forks. Insert

the short black bushings into the wheels, with the
narrow part of the bushings into the wheel bearings.
Then slide one wheel with the bushings over the rear

axle to the xed nut at the end of the axle. Push the
long aluminium pipe over the axle up to the wheel and
slide the axle, from the le side of the rider, into the
holes of the rear forks and through the aluminium pipe. Important, keep the sealed nut
on the le side of the rider. This way the nut on the other side won’t turn loose when
the Trybike is ridden. Slide the remaining long aluminium pipe and the wheel with the
bushings onto the right side of the rear axle and fasten the wheel with the nut. Finally,
ghten the nut properly (not too ght but also not too loose) and check that the wheels
rotate smoothly and the nuts don’t turn. Put the short axle in the supplied bag and store

it, so you can convert the tricycle to a bicycle in the future.

LIGH TNIN G FAST

CONVERTING THE TRYBIKE FROM A TRICYCLE INTO A BICYCLE

Detach the long axle with the two wheels, pipes and
bushings from the rear forks. Put the long axle in the

supplied bag and store it together with one wheel so you
can convert the tricycle to a bicycle for another child in

the future. The rear wheel is basically mounted the same
way as the front wheel, but the rear wheel is a bit more
dicult to do because it is subject to some tension. So
you may have to pull the prongs of the rear forks apart.

Insert the black long nylon bushings into the wheel, with the narrow part of the bushing
into the wheel bearing. Place the wheel with the black nylon bushings between the rear

forks so the holes of the rear forks are exactly aligned with the holes of the bushings.
Insert the axle through the rear forks, the bushings and therefore also through the wheel.
Before you push the axle all the way through, put the nut on one side of the axle, giving it
a few turns. Push the axle completely through the hole and put the nut on the other side,
again giving it a few turns. Once ed, ghten the nuts simultaneously on both sides and
check that the wheel rotates smoothly.

Put the long axle in the supplied bag and store it together with the wheel so you can

convert the tricycle to a bicycle for another child in the future.

aenon to the handlebars, wheels and
seat. Make sure you perform a thorough
check-up 14 days aer assembly.

TYRES

We recommend that you inate all the
tyres to approximately 30 PSI to 35 PSI (2.0
to 2.4 bar). You should sll be able to push
in the tyre a lile with your thumb. Do not
overinate the tyres. Do not exceed 35 PSI,

because the tyre may burst!

WARRANTY

Designing our bikes took a lot of me, and
each Trybike has been manufactured with
great care and aenon. Every Trybike is
checked separately, but producon errors
