Improper set up

 

 

If  you  choose  not  to  inspect  your  bike  and  breakage  or    

failure occurs, you are responsible and not Day 6 Bicycles 

or  the  dealer  you  purchased  it  from.    Be  responsible  and 

safe – check your bike before each ride. 

Bicycle Inspection 

Before riding your Day 6, always inspect it to make sure all 

parts  are  adjusted  and  working  properly.    The  frame  and 

components  are  designed  to  be  used  in  a  responsible    

manner  on  streets  and  trails.    Day  6  bicycles  are  not        

designed for racing, mountain biking, jumping, stunt riding, 

riding with more than one rider, riding with heavy loads, or 

any  extreme  type  of  riding  or  non-standard  use  and  the   

warranty will not cover any of the above riding types.  You 

are responsible for checking your bike before each ride and 

on  a  regular  basis  to  make  sure  that  the  frame  and  parts 

are not cracked, loose, or broken and that they are working 

in a proper fashion.  Failure to inspect your bike could lead 

to bike damage, severe injury, or even death.    

NOTE:   

For  optimal  performance  the  handlebars  should  be  almost 

parallel with the head tube.   Having the handlebars too far 

forward  or  backward  will  affect  the  steering  and  can  be     

dangerous.  If they are too far back, they can hit your knees 

while pedaling.
