WARNING
The quick-release skewer must be correctly closed before you set off.

the bike is left unsupervised, even for a short time. Otherwise, the
seatpost may come loose; if this should happen whilst you are cycling,
you could fall. This could result in serious injuries.

swinging the lever 180˚. You will
generally be able to read "OPEN" on
the inside of the lever.

position. Take heed of the marking.
