GENERAL WARNING
Like any sport, bicycling involves risk of injury and damage. By choosing to ride a bicy-
cle, you assume the responsibility for that risk, so you need to know — and to practice
— the rules of safe and responsible riding and of proper use and maintenance. Proper
use and maintenance of your bicycle reduces risk of injury.
Your bicycle is designed for use by persons 16 years old and above. Riders must
have the physical coordination, reaction time and mental capability to ride and manage
traffi c, road conditions, sudden situations and also respect the laws governing bicycle
use where they ride, regardless of age.
If you have an impairment or disability such as a visual impairment, hearing impair-
ment, physical impairment, cognitive/language impairment, or a seizure disorder, con-
sult your physician before riding any bicycle.
Warning and caution statements
This Manual contains many “Warnings” and “Cautions” concerning the consequences
of failure to maintain or inspect your bicycle and of failure to follow safe cycling practices.
The combination of the
safety alert symbol and the word
WARNING
indicates a
potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in serious injury or death.
The combination of the
safety alert symbol and the word
CAUTION
indicates a
potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate
injury, or is an alert against unsafe practices.
The word
CAUTION
used without the safety alert symbol indicates a situation which, if
not avoided, could result in serious damage to the bicycle or the voiding of your warranty.
Many of the Warnings and Cautions say “you may lose control and fall”. Because
any fall can result in serious injury or even death, we do not always repeat the warning
of possible injury or death.
Because it is impossible to anticipate every situation or condition which can occur
while riding, this Manual makes no representation about the safe use of the bicycle under
all conditions. There are risks associated with the use of any bicycle which cannot be
predicted or avoided, and which are the sole responsibility of the rider.
You should save this manual, along with any other documents that were included
with your bicycle, for future reference. However, all content in this manual is subject to
change or withdrawal without notice. Visit www.CurrieTech.com to download the latest

assumes no responsibility or liability for any errors or inaccuracies that may appear herein.
