between your thumb and index fi nger. Do they all feel about the same?
If any feel loose, have a bicycle dealer check the wheel for tension and
trueness.
• Check the tires for excess wear, cuts or bruises. Have a bicycle dealer
replace them if necessary.
• check the wheel rims for excess wear, dings, dents and scratches. Consult a
bicycle dealer if you see any rim damage.
• Check to make sure that all parts and accessories are still secure, and
tighten any which are not.
• Check the frame, particularly in the area around all tube joints; the
handlebars; the stem; the seat post; the area around the beam where it
is welded to the ChildPod® frame, and where the wheels attach to the
ChildPod®. Look for any deep scratches, cracks or discoloration. These are
signs of stress-caused fatigue and indicate that a part is at the end of its
useful life and needs to be replaced.
WARNING: Like any mechanical device, the Zigo® Leader™ and its
components are subject to wear and stress. Diff erent materials and
mechanisms wear or fatigue from stress at diff erent rates and have
diff erent life cycles. If a component’s life cycle is exceeded, the component
can suddenly and catastrophically fail, causing serious injury or death to
the rider. Scratches, cracks, fraying and discoloration are signs of stress-
caused fatigue and indicate that a part is at the end of its useful life and
needs to be replaced. While the materials and workmanship of your Zigo®
Leader™ or of individual components may be covered by a warranty for
a specifi ed period of time by the manufacturer, this is no guarantee that
the product will last the term of the warranty. Product life is often related
to the kind of riding you do and to the treatment to which you submit the
bicycle. The Zigo® Leader™’s warranty is not meant to suggest that the
Zigo® Leader™ cannot be broken or will last forever. It only means that the
bicycle is covered subject to the terms of the warranty. Please be sure to
read Appendix A, Intended Use of your Zigo® Leader™.
5. As required: If either brake lever fails the Mechanical Safety Check (Section 1.3),
don’t ride the bike. Have a bicycle dealer check the brakes.
• If the chain won’t shift smoothly and quietly from gear to gear, the shifting
mechanism is out of adjustment. See a bicycle dealer.
6. Every 50 hours of riding: Take your Leader™ to a bicycle dealer for a complete
checkup.
