WARNING: Like any mechanical device, a bicycle and its components are subject to wear and stress. Different materials
and mechanisms wear or fatigue from stress at different rates and have different life cycles. If a component’s life cycle is
exceeded, the component can suddenly and catastrophically fail, causing serious injury or death to the rider. Scratches,
cracks and discolouration are signs of a stress-caused fatigue and indicate that a part is at the end of its useful life and
needs to be replaced.
