pressure.

Riding over uneven surfaces.
The higher value applies to:
-
Heavier riders,

Riding over even surfaces.
• Check the tyre pressure regularly.

Pump the tyre or let air out of the tyre if the tyre pressure does not meet the speci-
fications or is not suitable for the intended use.
25 Warnings on wheels
WARNING
Risk of accident and injury!
There is an increased risk of accident and injury if the wheels do not rotate
concentrically (true running) or wobble, for example. The rim can break as a
result and the rim brakes may lock up.
»
Contact your specialist dealer to align the wheels if they are not running concen-
trically or are wobbling.
WARNING
Risk of accident and injury!
Soiled or missing reflectors can affect your visibility on the road. There is an
increased risk of accident as a result.
»
Remove any soiling from reflectors and replace missing or worn reflectors
immediately.
