Service
Technological advances have made bicycles and bicycle compo -
nents more complex, and the pace of innovation is increasing. It is
impossible for this Manual to provide all the information required
to properly repair and/or maintain your bicycle. In order to help
minimize the chances of an accident and possible injury, it is
critical that you have any repair or maintenance which is not
specifically described in this Manual performed by your dealer.
Equally important is that your individual maintenance require-
ments will be determined by everything from your riding style to
geographic location. Consult your dealer for help in determining
your maintenance requirements.
Warning
Many bicycle service and repair tasks require special knowledge and
tools. Do not begin any adjustments or service on your bicycle until
you have learned from your dealer how to properly complete them.
Improper adjustment or service may result in damage to the bicycle
or in an accident which can cause serious injury or death.
Warning
If you want to learn to do major service and repair work on your bike, then ask your dealer about
the availability of bicycle repair courses in your area.
We recommend that you ask your dealer to check the quality of your work the first time you work
on something and before you ride the bike, just to make sure that you did everything correctly.
Since that will require the time of a mechanic, there may be a modest charge for this service.
We also recommend that you ask your dealer for guidance on what spare parts, such as tires,
inner tubes, light bulbs, batteries, lubricants etc. would be appropriate for you to have once you
have learned how to replace such parts when they require replacement.
A — Service intervals
Some service and maintenance can and should be performed by the owner, and require no spe-
cial tools or knowledge beyond what is presented in this Manual.
The following are examples of the type of service you should perform yourself. All other service,
maintenance, and repair should be performed in a properly equipped facility by a qualified bicycle
mechanic using the correct tools and procedures specified by the manufacturer.
Break-in Period: Your bike will last longer and work better if you break it in, or use
it a few times, before riding it hard. Control cables and wheel spokes may stretch or
“seat” when a new bike is first used and may require readjustment by your dealer.
Your Mechanical Safety Check (Section 7.A) will help you identify some things that
need readjustment. But even if everything seems fine to you, it’s best to take your
