WARNING
Seatpost marking
The seatpost is marked to indicate how far you
may pull it out from the frame. Never pull the
seatpost further out than the marking. This could
cause it to bend or break, and cause you to fall.
13. Tighten the seatpost bolt again by turning
it clockwise with a torque of 12 - 15 Nm
using a torque wrench.
DANGER
Observe the prescribed tightening torque. Failure to comply can
result in screws/bolts becoming loose, tearing away or fracturing. If
that happens while you are riding the bike, components may come
off and you could have a severe crash. If screws are overtightened,
components can also be damaged.
If no value is shown on the component, use the torque settings from

3.12 Braking
Make sure that you can always reach the brakes comfortably and that you
are familiar with their operation and position. Note which brake lever
operates the front and rear brakes.
DANGER
Practise braking in a safe place before venturing into road traffic.
In some instances, the braking effect can be different or stronger
than what you are used to. If you do not take the time to familiarise
yourself with the braking effect, you could cause a serious accident.
Practise until you feel safe. Dismount if you ever feel unsafe.
Replace the brake pads when they reach the safe wear limit. Using
worn brake pads can result in serious injuries with fatal consequen-
ces.
CAUTION
Disc brake
Disc brakes: Avoid touching the brake discs
after intensive use of the brakes ‒ they can
become very hot. You could burn yourself if
you touch them.
