TIRES

9

• Tire manufacturer’s recommended inflation pressure is found on the tire sidewall (listed as “PSI”).
• Using a hand or floor pump with a gauge, inflate the tire to half its recommended inflation pressure. Check that the tire is properly seated on the rim. Inspect both sides for proper fit.
• If the tire is seated unevenly or bulges out along the rim, let some air out of the tire and reposition the tire by hand so that it sits evenly on the rim.
• Continue to inflate the tire to the manufacturer’s recommended pressure.
• Do not exceed the recommended pressure. This can cause an unsafe condition potentially causing the tire to unexpectedly explode.
• Do not use a compressed air device to inflate your tires as the rapid inflation of the tire can cause it to explode.
• Tires and tubes are not warranted against damage caused by over-inflation or punctures from road hazards.

BEFORE YOU FIRST RIDE

We strongly recommend you take your bike to a professional bike shop and have them check your work and fine tune the bike to ensure your bike is safe to ride.

SERIAL NUMBER

It is important that you locate and record the serial number of your bicycle in case of a recall or if the bicycle is stolen. The serial number
