framed bicycles your toe or toeclip may be
able to contact the front wheel when a pedal
is all the way forward and the wheel is
turned. Read SECTION 4.E. If you have
toeclip overlap.
6. Does your bike have suspension? If so, check
SECTION 4.F. Suspension can change the
way a bicycle performs. Follow the
suspension manufacturer’s instructions for
use, adjustment and care.
1.C - Mechanical Safety Check
Routinely check the condition of your bicycle
before every ride.
Nuts, Bolts Screws & Other Fasteners
Because manufacturers use a wide variety of
fastener sizes and shapes made in a variety of
materials, often differing by model and
component, the correct tightening force or
torque cannot be generalized. To make sure that
the many fasteners on your bicycle are correctly
tightened. See page 78.
Always refer to the torque specifications in the
instructions provided by the manufacturer of a
component in question.
Correctly tightening a fastener requires a
calibrated torque wrench.
A professional bicycle mechanic with a torque
wrench should torque the fasteners on you
bicycle. If you choose to work on your own
bicycle, you must use a torque wrench and the
correct tightening torque specifications from the
bicycle or component manufacturer or from your
dealer.
