1.2 BEFORE A FIRST RIDE

1.2.1 Make sure the bicycle fits

Your dealer should fit you with the proper size of bicycle. There should be at

least 1” (25 mm) clearance between the top tube and the rider when standing

over the bicycle. For further information visit

www.cooperbikes.com

The seat and handlebar may be adjusted to offer the best comfort

and performance. Before making these adjustments, refer to Chapter 3.

1.2.2 Know how the bicycle performs

The features of your bicycle, if misused, may cause you to lose control of

the bike. Before riding fast or in more difficult conditions, learn the function

and performance of all the mechanisms of your bike by riding at slower

speeds in a flat, empty parking lot. If you want your bicycle to perform

differently, or if you have special needs that require different parts for

the safe operation of your bike, consult your dealer.

•

Learn the power of your brakes

The stopping power on bikes varies according to the intended use of the bike. If you would like your bike to have more,

or less, stopping power, consult your dealer about brake adjustments or other brake options for your bicycle.

WARNING

Misuse of the braking system, including over-use of the front brake, can cause you to lose control and fall. Avoid

improper braking by understanding and practicing proper application of your brakes as explained in this manual.
