damage to the bike.
• Before assembling the bike, check all the parts indicated in the manual are in the box. Inspect the parts for signs of damage. Do
not assemble the bike if you observe any damaged components.
• The threads on the left and right pedals are different. To prevent damage to the threads, only tighten the pedals in the direction
indicated.
• After long descents, the bike rims and brake disks can get very hot. Do not touch.
• This bike is not suitable for the fitting of a luggage carrier and/or child seat.
• EN 16054:2012 WARNING:
BMX pedals are designed to provide greater grip capability of the pedal tread surface than that pro-
vided by an ordinary bike pedal. This can result in the pedal tread surface being very rough and containing sharp edges. Riders
should therefore wear adequate safety protection.
• Always ride with the flow of traffic. The side of the road you should ride on depends on your location, so please be aware of the
correct side.
• Control your speed and avoid moving from side to side.
• Never hold on to a moving vehicle.
• Never cycle two abreast, only ride in a single file.
• Keep an eye out for obstructions, including, but not limited to, cars or open car doors.
• Give pedestrians the right-of-way. Do not ride too close to pedestrians.
• Do not park your bike where it can get in the way or constitute a hazard.
• Avoid road hazards, which may hinder your ability to control your bike. Potholes, ruts, uneven pavement, railroad crossing, man-
hole covers, storm grating, soft road edges, gravel, curbs, speed bumps, leaves, puddles, and debris can all influence your riding
and result in loss of control.
• Do not carry passengers on your bike.
• Never ride with packages in your hands or anything attached to your bike that could obstruct your vision or control.
• Intersections and roundabouts should be approached with caution.
• Always keep both hands on the handlebar when riding.
• Always wear safety equipment. A helmet, long-sleeves shirt, long pants, shoes and elbow and knee pads are suggested. Gloves
and eye protection also make good sense. Cover your stem, handlebar, and top tube with safety pads for additional protection
• If your bike comes supplied with a chain cover, do not cycle without it attached.
