Before your first ride
1. If you want to use your bike on public roads, it has
to comply with legal requirements. These require-
ments may vary in each country. The fittings of your
MERIDA bike are, therefore, not necessarily com-
plete
(e) .
Ask your MERIDA dealer concerning the laws and
regulations applicable in your country or in the
country you intend to use your MERIDA bike. Have
your MERIDA bike equipped accordingly before us-
ing it on public roads.
For more information see the chapter “Legal re-
quirements for riding on public roads“.
2. Are you familiar with the brake system
(f-h)
? Have
a look at the bike card and check whether the brake
lever of the front brake is on the side you are used to
(right or left). If it is not, ask your MERIDA dealer to
switch the brake levers before you set off for the first
time.
Your new bike is equipped with modern brakes
which may be far more powerful than those you
were used to so far. Be sure to first practice using the
brakes on a level, non-slip surface off public roads!
Slowly approach higher brake performances and
speeds.
For more information see the chapter “The brake
system” and the instructions of the component
manufacturers on this MERIDA CD-ROM.
