Recommendations of manufacturer
Start using the bicycle only after you have received all of the documentation and read it
carefully.
In order for the bicycle to function properly, it is recommended that the „0” inspection is
performed and that such inspection is covered by the manufacturer’s warranty (read more in
Warranty Terms and Conditions).
The check of left and right crank arm clearances
is recommended. Loosening of crank arm is a
natural, but rare phenomenon in the process of reaching full usability by the bicycle and it
particularly concerns the left crank arm. After having felt a clearance (which is characterized by
the gentle movement of crank arm with the pedal across
the bicycle), tighten the crank – by
yourself or with the allen key of 8 mm or in any bicycle workshop.
NOTE: Ignoring the clearance on the crank causes an excessive wear of the
bottom bracket axle
and crank arm and it eventually leads to unscrewing of crank with the pedal. The repair of
sub-assemblies damaged by using the bicycle with clearances on the crank is not covered by
the manufacturer’s warranty.
It is recommended that after the first month of normal bicycle use, the inspection is performed
to check whether the wheels have not become deformed. The wheel deformation may occur in
the first weeks of normal use and is a natural, but rare phenomenon in the process of reaching
full usability by the bicycle. The wheel straightening (in other words: centering) may be
performed in any bicycle service center for a small fee.
Note! Both the saddle and the handles are covered with protective covers (some models). This
cover wears off during the first few uses of bicycle, then the components achieve the intended
look.
The frame, fork and all other components should be checked on a regular basis by the
professional bicycle service in order to determine whether there is any wear and/or possible
damage (cracks, corrosion, damaged components). The check of bicycle condition is of
paramount value to ensure the absolute safety and prevention of accidents and bodily injuries,
as well as to extend the bicycle’s life cycle.
If you want to sell or give your bicycle to somebody as a present, you should also pass on this
user manual to the new owner.
Use the bicycle in accordance with its purpose. Using of bicycle contrary to its purpose may lead
to dangerous situations, falls and accidents.
The retrofitting of accessories and performance of conversions that are not permitted for your
bicycle, may cause the bicycle damage and impair its operational safety. This may lead to
dangerous situations during the ride, falls and accidents. Do not retrofit your bicycle and never
carry out any conversions by yourself. Always select the accessories and modification parts
together with the seller in the bicycle shop.
