IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT
RIDING IN WET, HUMID, OR COASTAL CONDITIONS
Before and after rides, frequently, inspect and renew grease under fork boot and service the air filter. Inspect the boot
for rips and tears. Check the folds. If the boot is damaged or not attached securely by the clamps/zip ties , water or
contaminants can enter. The boot should be removed and the fork should be immediately dried and re-greased to stop
any damage occurring due to moisture.
ANYTIME THE FORK BECOMES SUBMERGED
Stop riding it.
The fork is not water tight. A moving submerged fork can accumulate water inside. If your fork has
been submerged, you should perform checks immediately.
DO NOT STORE YOUR LEFTY FOLLOWING A WET RIDE WITHOUT FIRST PERFORMING THE CHECKS ABOVE.
SERIOUS DAMAGE CAN OCCUR.
Cleaning
Clean using only a mild soap and water solution. Clean water and common liquid dish washing soap will work best. Be sure
to cover the adjusters with a clean plastic bag secured with a rubber band or masking tape. Spray off heavy dirt before wiping.
Spray indirectly.
NOTICE
■
DO NOT USE A PRESSURE WASHER.
Use a low pressure garden hose. Power washing will force contaminants into the
fork promoting corrosion, immediately damaging, or result in accelerated wear.
■
DON’T DRY WITH COMPRESSED AIR FOR THE SAME REASON
.
Frame Bumper
The Lefty frame bumper is located on the outer tube
between the clamps. The bumper cushions the frame
from contact with the fork. Replace it with a new one
if it ever becomes damaged, torn, or missing.
REPLACEMENT:
Before replacement, gently clean
the Lefty outer tube with warm soapy water and
wipe dry. Remove the backing from the new bumper,
position and affix by pressing firmly against the outer
tube.
IMPORTANT:
Be sure to position the bumper so
that when the handlebar is rotated to the left, the
bumper prevents fork contact with the the frame.
Frame damage can result from using the wrong
bumper or positioning a bumper incorrectly. Ask your
Cannondale Dealer for help.
ORDER NO.
