WARNING
Risk of accident and injury!
After a fall or an accident, hidden damage can occur to
the bicycle, e.g. hairline cracks. Aluminium components
can be damaged, even if the damage is not visible.
• After a hard fall or accident, ask your specialist dealer
to conduct a thorough check for possible damage.
• If components have bent, do not straighten them.
• Have damaged or bent parts replaced by your
specialist dealer immediately.
• Do not use the bicycle if damage to the bicycle is
visible or suspected.
• After lighter falls, check all components of the bicycle, e.g.
if the bicycle has fallen over (see chapter “Maintenance”).
• If in doubt and for repairs, consult your specialist dealer.
