ranty void. This kind of adapter should only be
fitted by a specialist cycle shop.
•
Once the adapter has been fitted in the carbon
frame it cannot be removed.
26.3 Visual inspection
If your carbon component has pre-existing damage,
it could suddenly fail completely with potentially dis-
astrous consequences. You should therefore inspect
your carbon frame and components thoroughly on a
regular basis.
›
Look for splitting, deep scratches, holes or other
changes in the carbon surface.
›
Check whether the components feel softer or
have more give in them than usual.
›
Check whether individual layers (paint, finish or
fibres) are flaking off.
If you suspect a component is no longer sound, you
should definitely replace it before riding your bike
again. You should ideally hand over your bike to a
specialist dealer for inspection.
Inspect the following components and areas regularly (at
least every 100 km) for cracks, fractures or changes in
surface appearance. Furthermore, if you come off the bike
or if it falls over, these components must always subse-
quently be inspected:
26.4 Carbon frame
Front derailleur clamp area, derailleur hanger, saddle
clamp, headset spacers, bottom bracket spacers, brake
boss or disc brake mount, dropout slots, suspension
mounts on main frame and rear triangle, bearing mounts
with full-suspension frame, transition areas around
threaded bushes for drinking bottles
Mounting of a child seat to a carbon frame is not per-
mitted. There is a danger of the frame breaking with
serious consequences.
26.5 Carbon handlebar
Transition area at handlebar stem, handles, clamping ar-
eas of other components
If your bike falls on its handlebar, the best thing you
can do is replace it. Always have bar ends retrofitted
by your specialist cycle shop.
26.6 Carbon handlebar stem
Clamping area of all screws, head tube inside and outside
If you have changed the handlebar position, bear in
mind that the stem must extensively enclose the head
tube.
