DANGER:
If you decide to replace one of the components, it is recommended to use a component
compatible with your bike. You may also want to consult the manufacturer. If you do not have sufficient
experience or tools, contact the seller. Any amateur modifications may damage the bike and cause a
serious injury or death.
RECOMMENDATIONS/WARNINGS
It is recommended to be extremely careful while riding on public roads (for better safety,
always yield the right of the way).
Keep in mind that the brake system’s effectivity decreases on wet surfaces.
Wear comfortable sportswear that cannot get caught in the moving parts of the bike.
If you ride through worsened visibility conditions (dawn/twilight, at night or in bad weather),
equip yourself with suitable reflective features and lights.
Do not overload the bike. Consult the seller if necessary.
Carefully read all instructions in this manual.
Always wear a helmet while riding a bike.
BEFORE FIRST USE
DANGER:
If you use a bike not suited for riding on public roads, you risk falling, collisions, material
damage or death.
Familiarize yourself with all the bike’s features before using it for the first time. Try out the brake levers
and see which wheel they control. For your safety, we recommend you try the brakes out while riding
slowly at first, gradually picking up speed. The effectivity of the brakes increases with the intensity of the
braking. If you use clipless pedals, practise fastening and unfastening them before riding the bike. Find
a free space to practice, awa
y from traffic or pedestrians. You’ll be ready for the first ride only after
inspecting the entire bike and reading through this manual.
BEFORE EVERY USE
DANGER:
If you use a bike without a complete or original components set, you risk an injury or material
damage.
Make sure you remember the state the bike was in after the initial setting (by the seller) so you recognise
any unusual changes. If you register such changes, take the bike to the seller for repairs.
Inspect the entire bike before every ride
– the tightening of all connections, possible deformations,
scratching or other mechanical damage.
