Safety Information
Minimum Seat Post Insert
Minimum Seat Post Insert
Make sure at least 100 mm of the seat post
is inserted into the frame at all times.
Failure to insert the seat post at least 100
mm can place a very high stress on the
seat tube top tube junction causing the
frame to fail while riding.
Remove the seat post. Measure 100 mm
from the bottom of the seat post. Use a
permanent marker to mark the post at 100
mm.
When adjusting the seat post height in the
seat tube, never adjust the seat post so
that the line you mark is above the top
edge of the seat tube.
You must also be aware that bicycle seat
posts are permanently marked by the
manufacturer with a “minimum insert” line
on the seat post itself. You must not rely
on this marking as an indication of the
proper minimum seat post insertion depth.
You can be severely injured, paralyzed or
killed in an accident if you ignore this
warning.
Maintaining Your Bike’s
Drive System
NOTICE
Drive-assist system components must
only be serviced at an authorized service
center. This will ensure the quality and
safety of the drive-assist system.
Never attempt to open or remove drive
system parts from the frame, or to work on
them yourself. Other components of the
drive system (e.g. drive chain, front chain
ring, rear cassette, rear derailleur, crank
arm) must be serviced by an Authorized
Cannondale Dealer.
Replacement parts must be identical to
the original Cannondale specification for
the bike. Failure to replace components
with original specification can result in
serious overload or in other damage to the
drive unit.
Unauthorized opening or servicing of the
drive unit will void the warranty.
