2. Are you familiar with the brake system
(b+c)
?
Have a look at the bike card and check whether
the brake lever of the front brake is on the side
you are used to (right or left). If it is not, ask your
CENTURION dealer to switch the brake levers
before you set off for the first time.
Your new pedelec is equipped with modern
brakes which may be far more powerful than
those you were used to so far. Be sure to first
practice using the brakes on a level, non-slip
surface off public roads! Slowly approach higher
brake performances and speeds.
For more information see the chapter “The brake
system” and the instructions of the component
manufacturers on this CENTURION CD-ROM.
Before your first ride
1. If you want to use your pedelec on public roads,
it has to comply with legal requirements. These
requirements may vary in each country. The fit-
tings of your CENTURION bike are, therefore, not
necessarily complete
(a)
. Ask your CENTURION
dealer concerning the laws and regulations appli-
cable in your country or in the country you intend
to use your CENTURION road bike. Have your
CENTURION road bike equipped accordingly be-
fore using it on public roads.
For more information see the chapter “Legal re-
quirements for riding on public roads”.
