Grizzly 72v PPB - Assembly VideoUpdated a minute ago
This assembly guide and video walk you through unboxing, assembling, and performing initial component torque checks on your new Grizzly 72V PPB electric motorized bike.
CRITICAL WARNING: Always power cycle—Dissipate Controller Energy (DCE)—your electric motorized bike before connecting or disconnecting any electrical components during assembly. On dual-battery models like the Grizzly 72V, both batteries must be removed to perform a proper DCE. Step-by-step guidance is available in our Power Cycle (DCE) Guide.

Required Tools & Materials
- 2.5 mm hex wrench
- 3 mm hex wrench

- Adjustable torque wrench (with 5 mm hex driver bit)
- 15 mm open-end pedal wrench
- Rubber mallet or soft-faced hammer
- Bicycle maintenance grease
Step-by-Step Assembly Instructions
- Unbox the Bike:
- Remove the outer shipping box and all protective packaging foam from the frame.
- Remove all parts and accessories from the box labeled "Tool Set."
- Install the Handlebars:
- Using the 4 mm hex wrench, remove the top stem clamp bolts.
- Position the handlebars centered within the clamp.
- Thread the bolts back in and snug them up evenly in an "X" cross pattern using the 4 mm hex wrench.
- Torque all four top stem clamp bolts to 5–6 Nm using an adjustable torque wrench.
- Mount the Display:
- Center the display mount on the horizontal crossbar of the handlebars.
- Tighten all mounting bracket hardware securely using 2.5 mm and 3 mm hex wrenches.
- Check Brake Levers:
- Confirm that both hydraulic brake lever assemblies are angled comfortably for operation.
- Torque the lever clamp bolts to 5–6 Nm.
- Install the Front Wheel:
- Slide the temporary plastic shipping axle out of the fork dropouts (gently tap with a rubber mallet if binding occurs).
- Ensure the inner sleeve spacer inside the front hub is aligned centered with the axle pass-through hole.
- Insert the wheel hub spacers onto the left and right sides of the front hub.
- Have an assistant lift the front of the frame while you align the front disc brake rotor into the caliper and guide the axle through the fork dropouts.
- Applying a light coat of bicycle maintenance grease to the OEM front axle beforehand will ease installation. Tap gently with a rubber mallet if needed to seat fully.
- Using a 5 mm hex wrench and a torque wrench with a 5 mm bit, torque both front axle bolts to 10–12 Nm.
- Remove Fender Mounting Bolts:
- Unscrew the four M6 bolts located underneath the fork crown using your hex wrench.
- Set these bolts aside—they will be used to attach the front fender to the lower fork arch.
- Verify Rear Axle Torque:
- Using a torque wrench, confirm that both rear axle nuts are torqued securely to 50–60 Nm.
- Install the Pedals:
- Apply a light layer of maintenance grease to the threads of both pedal spindles.
- Thread the right pedal (marked "R") clockwise into the right crank arm and tighten firmly with a 15 mm open-end wrench.
- Thread the left pedal (marked "L") counter-clockwise (reverse thread) into the left crank arm and tighten firmly with a 15 mm open-end wrench.
