WARNING : Using aftermarket accessories or components (trailers, stands, vehicle
racks, etc.) that have not been tested by Haro Bikes for safety and compatibility with
your specific bike may void your warranty, create an unsafe riding condition, result in
bike/property damage, or cause serious injury or death. If you use replacement parts or
accessories not tested and recommended by Haro Bikes, you do so at your own risk.
Safety checklists
BEFORE YOUR FIRST RIDE
q
Make sure handlebar cables were routed correctly when the handlebar was installed.
Turn the handlebar fully to the left and right and make sure this doesn’t pull any of the
cables or wires taut.
q
Make sure your pedals are secure using a pedal wrench. Torque to 35 Nm. (see “Tools
and recommended torque values” on page 5).
q
Check that the cable connectors on the bike are all plugged in securely.
q
Check the brake functions per the illustrations on page 7 but note that brakes can rub a
little the first few times you ride. This is okay and normal; any squeak or noise should go
away with use.
q
Check everything on the “Before every ride” list below.
BEFORE EVERY RIDE
Check the items on the checklist below before every ride or every 40-72 km (25-45 miles),
whichever comes first. If you find anything amiss with your bike, don’t ride it until you’re sure
it’s fixed. Consult a local, certified, and reputable bike mechanic or contact a Haro Bikes
authorized dealer if you have any questions.
Brake system
q
Check brake pads and ensure the brake pad material isn’t thinner than the backing plate
it attaches to.
q
Ensure brake pads are correctly positioned in relation to the brake rotors.
q
Ensure brake cables are correctly adjusted, and show no obvious wear.
q
Ensure brake levers are properly positioned and tightly secured to the handlebar.
q
Ensure the brake lever tension is appropriate.
q
Check that the taillight brightens when you squeeze each brake lever.
Wheels & tires
q
Ensure tires are holding air and inflated to within the PSI limits displayed on the tire
sidewalls.
q
Ensure tires have good tread, have no bulges or excessive wear, and are free from any
other damage.
q
Check the axle nuts on the rear wheel to ensure they are correctly tightened (see “Tools
and recommended torque values” on page 5).
q
Check the security of the front-wheel and the rear wheel axle hardware. The wheel
security and hardware torque should also be checked on a regular basis (see “Tools and
recommended torque values” on page 5). Either wheel can become loose or unsecured
with normal use.
WARNING : An improperly secured front or rear wheel can cause loss of control, ac-
cidents, serious injury, or death. Check that both wheels are properly secured during
assembly and before each ride.
