yourself. Different bikes can behave in
different ways when you brake, so it is

should press the brake levers.

OWNER’S RESPONSIBILITY
The instructions describe how to ride safely
and keep the bike in good condition. Read
the instructions carefully, and follow them.
All the important servicing and adjustments
to the bike should be carried out at a bike
shop. Follow these instructions if you do not
have access to a bike shop or want to do the
adjustments yourself.
• Familiarise yourself with the components
and accessories on the bike so that you
can use them properly.
• A bike is exposed to wear, like all
mechanical equipment, when you use it.
Different materials and components react
in different ways to wear and stress. If the
life span of any part of the bike (including
the frame, forks and components) has
been exceeded there is a risk of the part
suddenly breaking, and that you lose
control and fall off. Cracks, scratching or
changes in colour in areas exposed to
high levels of stress indicate that the
component has reached the end of its
useful life and should be replaced.
• It can be dangerous to use the bike for
freestyle biking, stunt tricks, competitions,
off-road biking etc., and you are
personally responsible for any subsequent
injuries or other damage resulting from
the use of the bike in this way. The retailer
waives all liability for any consequential
damage or other loss in relation to the
person who has purchased that bike or
any third party.
• It is important to understand how the
brakes work on the bike. If you do not use
the brakes properly you could loose
control of the bike and seriously injure
