innovation is constantly increasing. It is impossible for this manual to provide all the information required
to properly repair and/or maintain your paul&ernst bike. In order to help minimize the chances of an
accident and possible injury, it is critical that you have any repair or maintenance, which is not specifically
described in this manual, performed by a professional bicycle mechanic. Also, keep in mind that your
individual maintenance requirements will be determined by everything from your riding style to the
climatic conditions of where you live and ride.
2. Many bicycle service and repair tasks require special knowledge and tools.
Service Intervals: Some service and maintenance can and should be performed by the owner and require
no special tools or knowledge beyond what is presented in this manual. The following are examples of the
type of service you could perform yourself. All other types of service, maintenance, and repair should be
performed in a properly equipped facility by a qualified bicycle mechanic using the correct tools and
procedures.
