3.14.2 Air system
*
On some suspension forks it is possible to
alter the air pressure. You will need assis-
tance from your cycle dealer to do this, or if
you feel confident of doing it yourself, then
you use the suspension fork pump with a
pressure gauge and the suspension fork
manufacturer's installation manual. The
valve with cap (e.g. marked ‘AIR’) is usually
located on the left-hand side of the fork.

Before every trip
DANGER
Replace any damaged (e.g. cracks, grooves) or bent components
before using the Pedelec again. Not doing so can lead to essential
parts failing and cause a serious fall.
Do not ride the Pedelec if it is not in a technically satisfactory
condition. If you are unsure, ask a cycle dealer to check it over.
We recommend asking your cycle dealer to assemble and adjust the
bike. Otherwise, components could become loose due to a faulty as-
sembly. If this happens whilst you are cycling, you could injure your-
self very seriously or even die.
Inspect your Pedelec before every trip and after each time it has been
transported anywhere or left unattended. Use the following checklist to
help you.
3.14.1 Lockout system
If your suspension forks are fitted with a
lockout system, it is possible to lock the
suspension. There are some riding situa-
tions where that can be useful: for exam-
ple, if you are riding up a hill or if you
are standing up from the saddle when
accelerating. To switch the suspension
to fixed, turn the rotary control on the
right-hand side of the fork to ‘LOCK’ (or
alternatively:

). To reactivate the sus-
pension, turn the control to the ‘OPEN’
position.

DANGER
Do not ride over rough terrain with the suspension locked. It can
damage the suspension forks. A broken fork could cause you to fall off
and seriously injure yourself.
