Was so excited when UPS delivered my new bike tonight. Dug into the box only to find zero documentation or manuals anywhere. Got it assembled but can anyone share:
Headset torque
Stem torque

Any references on setting up the suspension would be appreciated. Looks nice lol, but don't want to be riding with something not properly torqued and no local shops are even scheduling maintenance or repair - all backed up with Rona-phobes.
Thanks

Aren’t the torque settings stamped onto the step and headstock.
I did get a manual with mine but to be honest it’s a generic Cube cycles so not that useful.
Google MTB set up, there a lot of instruction vids.

Torque charts are available on Cube site.

Assuming that the picture in this thread is a picture of your bike the fork is mounted the wrong way, front brakecaliper should be on the lefthand side!

Thanks yep, got that turned around lol. Need to learn to never be in a hurry. Here's a pic of it turned around.

Also though, found this black thread-on cap on the garage floor. I know it wasn't there when I started and it's not scratched. Feels like thin-wall aluminum about 1" long, female thread maybe 7/8' diameter. Any idea what this is? Thanks all.

The cap belongs to the fork, under the righthand side forkleg, protection for the rebound adjustment "knob"

And congrats on your new bike, I've got the exact same bike, very much fun!

Btw did you find the torque charts on cube site?

Thanks. Only torque setting I see is for the seat post. I'm really interested in the headset and stem but would love to know all of them. Thx
