5.2 USE OF THE BRAKES
To activate a brake, pull the respective lever in
the direction of the handlebars
- RT lever = rear brake;
- LT lever = front brake.
HAZARD
Danger of falls and accidents.
• A too strong activation of the
brake may cause the block of
the wheels and lead to slipping
or overturning
• it is necessary to familiar-
ize with the activation of the
brakes. Start by pedalling
slowly and activating the brake
levers with moderation
• carry out these braking exer-
cises on flat stretches
• dose the brakes and activate
the two levers simultaneously
• pay attention while activating
the lever of the front brake; the
presence of sand, gravel, etc.
may make the wheel slip, caus-
ing a fall.
NOTE: avoid long trips as long as the braking
system is not run-in. Once the braking system
has been run-in, a very high braking force will
be available.
NOTE: 65% (approximately) of the total brak-
ing force is obtained from the front brake. The
maximum braking performance is obtained by
activating the two levers simultaneously.
5.3 USING THE GEARS
(PINION)
ATTENTION
Shift gear only after having
relieved pressure on the pedals,
to put less strain on the gearbox
and have smoother gear shift.
If the pressure on the pedals is
excessive, the gear is not shifted,
relieve the pressure on the pedals
to shift gear.
NOTE: The gearbox must be run-in for the
first 1000 km and the passage from one gear
to another may not be smooth. Successively
the gearbox will operate with smooth and reg-
ular gear shifts.
Rotate the knob (1) to shift gear:
- rotating it towards “A” the gear is higher;
pedalling resistance decreases and speed
is lower, but climbs can be faced more
easily.
- Rotating the knob (1) towards “B”, pedalling
resistance increases and a higher speed is
obtained, it is used on flat routes.
- The gear in use is indicated by the arrow
(2).
NOTE: the gears can be shifted when the
bike is running and when at a standstill and
also by pedalling backwards.
