Bike assembly videos for bicycle and scooter brands

Boxed bikes arrive half-built. We turn your assembly manual into a short film per model that shows the handlebar, pedals, wheel, brakes and the checks before the first ride.

Free preview of your own manual. See pricing

Real films, made from real manuals

  • Three drawers, then the side frames

  • Floor halves together, walls up

  • Stand it up, click the doors on

In short

Direct-to-consumer bikes, kids' bikes, e-bikes and scooters all put the last steps in the customer's hands. The usual problems: a fork shipped backwards and the bar fitted that way, a left pedal forced into the wrong thread, brakes never checked. A film per model shows each one.

What a bike film should show

  • Turning the fork to face forward before fitting the bar
  • Right pedal clockwise, left pedal counterclockwise (it's a left-hand thread)
  • Stem bolts tightened evenly, to the torque in your manual
  • Brake and gear checks, tyre pressure, quick-release or thru-axle closed
  • For e-bikes: battery fitting and charging as your manual describes

Send it before the box arrives

Put the film in the dispatch email so the rider knows what's coming, then again behind a QR code on the box. Our e-bike assembly video guide covers torque notes and onboarding emails in more depth.
