  1. I just bought my brand new Torker LX 24", and am assembling it. . .
    Which side is forward??? If I place the part of the frame that has
    the "forward" sticker in front of my body, then the sticker that says
    "L" on both the pedal and the frame are on my right, and the stickers
    that say "R" are on my left. is this normal?

  2. Ok the aprt of the frame where the slot is at the top where the seat
    clamp goes. is the back. Put the left on the left side of that and the
    right on the right.

  3. You need to turn the frame around.

  6. nah I looked it over. . . the L side i think is supposed to be on the
    right. both the L and R stickers got mixed up; the pedal bolts tighten
    in the appropriate direction. when i pedal forwards its supposed to
    tighten them in more, right? if so, I got it. sure is odd for the L to
    indicate the Right pedals, though.

  8. The pedals can fall out. If the pedals are in there already then just
    look on the end that is screwed into the crank, it tells you what side
    it is. As long as the wheel is forward it doesn't matter if the frame
    is backwards, just turn the seat the right way.
