pressure (see section 6.6.1), all the while
checking to make sure that the tyre beads
stay seated in the rim. Reinstall the nut that
fixes the valve to the rim.
Put the valve cap back in place.
Place the wheel back into the bike
(see section 6.3).
WARNING:
Riding your Lafree Twist with a flat or under-
inflated tyre can seriously damage the rim,
tyre, tube and bicycle, and can cause you to
lose control and fall.
9.3 If you break a spoke
a A wheel with a loose or broken spoke is
much weaker than a fully tensioned wheel.
If you break a spoke while on a ride, you
will have to ride much more slowly and
carefully as the weakened wheel could
experience additional broken spokes and
become useless.
WARNING:
A broken spoke seriously weakens the wheel
and may cause it to wobble, striking the brakes
or the frame. Riding with a broken spoke(s) can
cause you to lose control and fall.
b Twist the broken spoke around the spoke
next to it to keep it from flopping around
and getting caught between the wheel and
the frame. Spin the wheel to see if the rim
clears the brake shoes/frame. If the wheel
will not turn because it is rubbing against
the brake shoe(s), try turning the brake
cable adjusting barrel(s) clockwise to
slacken the cable and open up the brakes
(see section 3.5.3). If the wheel still won’t
turn, release the brake’s elbow cable guide
(see section 6.3.4: “Removing a quick-
release front wheel”) and secure any loose
cable as best you can. Walk the bike, or if
you must, ride it with extreme caution.
However, it is strongly recommended that
you not ride with only one functioning
brake, and never with two non-operational
brakes.
9.4 If you crash
First, check yourself for injuries. Seek medical
help if necessary. If you are involved with
another vehicle, get as much information as
possible from the involved party and any
witnesses.
Next, check your bike for damage, and fix
what you can.
When you get home, carefully perform the
checks described in section 8.2 (D) and
check for any other damaged parts. All bent,
scored or discoloured parts are suspect and
should be replaced.
WARNING:
A crash can put extraordinary stress on
bicycle components, causing them to fatigue
prematurely. Components suffering from
stress fatigue can fail suddenly and
catastrophically, causing loss of control,
serious injury.
CAUTION:
If you have any doubt about the condition of
the bicycle or any of its parts, take it to your
dealer for a thorough check.
Checking the frame regularly and bringing
any questionable marks to the attention of
your Lafree dealer or other qualified person
will prolong the safe use of your frame and
components.
