Does the bike come tuned and ready to ride, or do i have to take it locally for a tune up before using?

I was able to ride the bike right out of the box! However, after about a month the brakes got really loose, so I would recommend using an hex wrench to tighten them so they don't loosen up. Otherwise, it's ready to ride!

Bike does not come tuned. Buyer needs to install pedals and adjust derailer. I did it myself following the included instructions. I'm sure a bike shop you do it much faster than I did, but I found it easy enough for my first go at it. You'll either need to flip the bike over and stand it on the handlebars / seat, or find a way to get the back tire off the floor so you can "pedal" and check the gear shifts.

Take it to a bike shop they will install it for you, installation requires tools you probably don't have at home and can be frustrating.

A quick call or email to Dynojet would be my suggestion. They were very prompt in their responses to me. I don't think this really qualifies as a new brain for the bike but it is more than a tuner. I think you'll be happy with it if you buy it, especially since you should already have O2 sensors. I learned after the fact that I did not, and my little mechanic down the road actually does have a dyno, so I ended up needing to buy the additional equipment so I could auto tune. But at least my bike it future proof now.

I have had no problems at all. I had a bike shop do all the final adjustments after assembly and all is well. Nice bike.

It had to be tuned, and it comes with the plastic caps for the tuning screws. I found tuning instructions online. Worked great

This bike is semi-assembled. It should take you less then 1 hour. Or you can take it to a bike shop and have them do it for you

Yes, you should have gotten a parts list (on the back of instructions to put it together). Mine was delivered with a broken pedal so I went online and ordered a new one. They sent it (free, of course).

I'm running power curve headers with the 4" slip ons and a K&N; high flow intake. With just putting the slip ons on an everything else stock, you should not have to tune, but if u have headers or different intake then stock you will have to tune, and no the bike dose not really run cooler. The only thing your gonna get from the slip ons is louder exhaust. Hope that helps.

It's decently put together. You have to put the front wheel on, the pedals, and the handlebar and the fork. And it comes with the single speed cog on so if you want to ride as a fixit you have to flip the rear wheel. The biggest thing is the toos don't come with it so you will need a decent number of tools but that's not that big of a deal

It does not come "fully" assembled. I believe the seat, handlebars, front wheel, peddles, and reflectors need to be attached. When that happens you will adjust brakes and derailleurs as necessary.

Yes Margaret. You will need to put on the fenders, seat and handlebars (and adjust accordingly), front wheel and pedals. After that, adjust the breaks. It's important to have all the tools needed and make sure you have all the parts. I was missing a few and had to go purchase them before I could finish the assembly. Another option is to take it to a bike shop and have them do it for you - including an initial tune up.

The converters are still on the bike. I didn't have to put a tuner on it but if you change the air filter to a high flow unit you will need a tuner. The bike seems to run cooler but it might be just me.

You can spin it on by hand and hand tighten it. It will tighten itself on when you pedal it. You will however need a tool to remove it. Most local bike shops won't charge you if you bring it in, just buy a tube or tip the guy $5.

I would go to a LBS and get fitted before buying any bike. Take that from someone with experience making mistakes when I bought this bike.

Great question! You need to install the front wheel, seat post and saddle, pedals, handlebar, and if you get them, the brake cables. The company recommends that you bring the bike to a bike shop after assembly to ensure that everything is as it should be.
