Check Braking
– check for proper
operation. Squeeze the brake levers. Are
control cables seated and securely
engaged? Do the brake pads contact the
wheel rim squarely and make full contact
with the rim? Do the brake pads touch the
wheel rim within an inch of brake lever
movement? Can you apply full braking
force at the levers without having them
touch the handlebar? If not, your brakes
need adjustment. (See page 23, Brake
Adjustments).
Gears
□
Check Shifting
– if gears don’t shift
smoothly or make clicking noises, they
may need to be adjusted. (See page 24,
Gears.) To understand how to shift the
gears on your Simbi better, please see the
supplemental owners manual for the
shifters. For more information, visit
Replace any worn or damaged parts before riding
your bicycle. Riding with damaged parts could
cause severed injury or even death.
Always ride with a certified CPSC-
certified bicycle helmet. Riding without a helmet
can cause serious injury or death.
