What to check after a crash
Handlebars and front fork
Check the handlebars and front fork for any damage
and cracks. Check to make sure the handlebars and
front fork are not twisted against one another in the
assembly. To do so, hold the front tyre between your
knees and attempt to twist the handlebars.
Derailleur
Please check that your chain is located on the front
chain rings and rear cassette. A crash on the rear
derailleur side may damage it. Attempt to shift through
the gears and make sure the shifter or dropout, which
may be bent, does not come too close to the rear
wheel spokes.
Further steps
– Make sure that your seat has not been bent by
the crash. To do so, compare the seat alignment
against the top tube.
– Check your bike for loose bolted connections and
components.
Only use your bike again when you have checked the
above points without finding any problems. For the
rest of your ride, avoid subjecting your bike to extreme
stress caused by, for example, braking hard and riding
out of saddle. To avoid risks, you can make the return
trip with another suitable mode of transportation.
Then inspect your bike thoroughly again once you
have returned home. Please contact a bike specialist
of your choice, your authorised Porsche Centre, or the
Porsche Bike hotline with any questions.
Bent rear derailleur. Contact between the rear
derailleur and the spokes poses a risk of crashing.
Do not use a bike with a bent rear derailleur. Contact
a bike specialist or the Porsche Bike hotline.
Defective parts. Parts damaged in an accident
may result in further accidents if used further. Do not
in any case use a defective bike or defective parts.
Bent parts. Do not bend bent parts back into their
original shape. There is an acute risk of breakage.
This particularly applies to parts essential to safety
such as the frame, front fork, handlebars, stem and
seat post. Immediately replace bent parts.
Twisted front derailleur. A twisted front derailleur
may cause the chain to slip off the chain wheel.
The bike will therefore cease to be propelled forward.
Do not use a bike with a twisted front derailleur.
