DANGER
" Like all mechanical parts, the bicycle is
also subject to wear and vulnerable to large
stresses. Different materials and components can
respond to fatigue in different ways.
If the design life of a component has been
exceeded, this component may fail and possibly
cause injury.
Cracks, scratches or discolouration in highly
stressed parts indicate that the life of this
component is coming to an end and that it should
be replaced.
"
DANGER

the bicycle. The force of the water may remove oil
and grease from moving parts, such as bottom
bracket and suspension. There is also the risk
that the water would penetrate the electrical
system, resulting in short circuiting or accelerated
energy transfer.
Do not put the bicycle in the car wash.
"
WARNING

unit, may not be immersed in water.
