Congratulations
on purchasing the number-one
carbon fiber fork on the planet.
Reynolds engineers designed this fork with one thing in
mind – the very best, high performance ride possible.
With proper installation you will find that this fork handles
smoother, stiffer and with more assurance than any other
fork on the market. You’ll discover the impact that experi-
enced engineering makes in our proprietary 100% carbon
components.
Notice
The Ouzo Pro carbon fork must be used with a circumferential
clamp style stem. Use of a pinch or wedge clamp style stem may
cause damage to the steerer tube which may result in rider injury
or death.
Before attaching your stem to the steerer tube, make sure that the
inside of the stem is smooth and free from burrs or other defects
or materials which may score or scratch the steerer tube. Scoring
or scratching the carbon fiber steerer tube could cause it to fail,
resulting in serious bodily injury or possibly death.
When this symbol appears, take care to understand
the directions before you proceed. Your safety may
depend on it!
