WARNING

WARNING

Risk of accident caused by malfunctioning brakes.
- Before starting out familiarise yourself with the braking performance of the THM-Fibula racing
   brakes on a quiet and clear stretch of road.
- Always brake by actuating both brakes simultaneously.
- Familiarise yourself with the increased braking distances required in wet conditions on a quiet
   and clear stretch of road.
Risk of accident caused by erratic riding behaviour or improper equipment. 
- Always ride with foresight, attention and a readiness to brake.
- Adjust your speed to the prevailing conditions (traffic, weather, visibility, etc.). 
- Do not use your THM-Fibula racing brakes at ambient temperatures below -10°C (14 °F).
- Do not exceed the maximum rider weight for which your THM components have been approved
   – see 

Dimensions, page 8.

- Do not perform jumps with your bicycle as this generates an enormous amount of force. 
- Always comply with the traffic regulations that are in force in the country where you are using
   your bicycle.
- When riding your bicycle you should always wear a high quality cycling helmet (e.g. ANSI
   certified) that is in excellent condition. Your clothing should be close-fitting but not restrictive.
- Only ride your bicycle if you are in good physical condition and your bicycle and all of its
   components are operating in a flawless manner.
- If you are involved in a heavy fall you should not continue to ride your bicycle.
   If such a case occurs, send us your THM components for inspection, even if no external damage
   is visible. In your own interest you should treat all of the components on your bicycle which have
   been produced by other manufacturers in the same manner.

Risk of accident caused by damaged bicycle components.
- Always transport your bicycle in an appropriate and careful manner.
- Do not store your THM components at an ambient temperature below -15°C (5°F) or above 55°C
   (131°F).
Risk of accident.
- Do not allow children to play with your bicycle.
