tiRe size
WaRninG
Mounting the wrong size tires can result in the
tires hitting the fork or frame when riding. If
this happens, you can lose control of your bike
and you can be thrown off, a moving tire can be
stopped because it touches the fork or frame.
Do not mount oversized tires, ones that rub or
hit the fork or frame, ones that result in too little
clearance, or ones that can hit the fork or frame
when the suspension is fully compressed or
when riding.
Take care that the tires you select are compatible
with your bike’s fork or frame design. Also, be sure
to follow the manufacturer’s recommendations
of your front fork and rear shocks.
When you are considering tires for your bike
consider...
The actual measured size of a tire may be different
than its sidewall marking. Each time you mount
a new tire, take the time to inspect the actual
clearance between the rotating tire and all parts
of the frame. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety
Commission (CPSC) requires at least 1/16” (1.6
mm) tire clearance from any part of the bike.
Allowing for lateral rim flex and a wheel or rim
that is out-of-true will likely mean choosing a
rear tire that provides even more clearance than
the CPSC recommends.

aeRodynamiC handleBaRs
Aerodynamic or “Triathlon” handlebar extensions are
fitted to some triathlon or racing bikes. They are also
added by customers. Understand that when riding
on these extensions your steering and braking are
adversely affected. Some riders find it harder to bend
their neck to see forward. Be sure to practice riding
with aero handlebar extensions on hazard and traffic
free roads. Practice the transition from having your
hands on the extensions to having your hands on the
regular handlebars and brake levers.

eXtensions in tRaffiC oR on diffiCUlt
Roads.
Ride on the aero handlebar extensions only
when the road is clear of traffic and hazards and
you have a long line of sight.
When using the extensions understand that you
are compromising steering and braking in favor
of speed. If you need to take evasive steering
or braking action while on the extensions you
could have an accident, with risk of serious
injury, paralysis or death.
