Hi everyone

Just got my new bike: Cube Acid 2016.
It has a Manitou 30 fork and a safety mounted on it. How do you remove it? Sorry if that's a stupid question :?

    Its only there to stop the fork ends getting compressed in transit. You should be able to pull it away.

    Keep it handy though if you ever want to fly with your bike or something. Good for packing it.

    Ahh you're right. Didn't put enough strength in pulling it off. Thanks :)
