About Off Road, Stunt, Downhill and Freeriding
This manual is designed to be used in conjunction with the Bicycle Owner’s Manual
and owner’s manuals supplied by the manufacturer of the front and rear suspension
components. If you did not receive any of these manuals, download them from the
Internet, contact your dealer, or contact us by telephone. There may be more current
manuals and technical information available. For the most current information, regularly
check the Specialized web site or consult your Specialized dealer. These manuals were
written for an important reason: your safety while riding.
This manual contains many “Warnings” and “Cautions” concerning the consequences
of failure to maintain or inspect your bicycle or of failure to follow safe cycling practices.
The combination of the safety alert symbol and the word Warning indicates a potentially
hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in serious injury or death. The
combination of the safety alert symbol and the word Caution indicates a potentially
hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury, or
damage to your bicycle or a component. Because the consequences of not following
a Warning usually include “you may lose control and fall,” which could result in serious
personal injury or death, we may not repeat this in conjunction with each Warning.
Because it is impossible to anticipate every situation or condition which may occur, a
practice or situation may be unsafe but not anticipated by this manual. So, don’t forget to
use your common sense.
WARNING! Make sure you have, review, and understand the warnings, instructions,
and content of the manuals for your bicycle.
ABOUT OFF ROAD, STUNT, DOWNHILL AND FREERIDING
Downhill racing, severe off road riding, jumping, and stunt riding is extremely
dangerous. Some downhill racers and freeriders reach speeds similar to motorcycles, thus
face similar risks and hazards. When engaging in these activities, you, your bicycle and
safety equipment must be in perfect condition. We recommend that at all times you wear
appropriate safety gear, such as an approved full face helmet, full finger gloves, and body
armor.
Not every bicycle is built for every activity. Check with your Specialized dealer to make
sure you have the right equipment.
No bicycle is indestructible. Downhill racing, severe off road riding, jumping, and stunt
riding increases the stress on every part of your bicycle. Frames or parts under high stress
may fail, causing you to lose control or fall. Because of the risk involved, Specialized
recommends that you conduct a thorough inspection before each ride. If you miss a jump,
ditch your bike in mid crash, dump or launch your bike without you on it, inspect yourself
for injury, then carefully inspect your bicycle for damage.
Here is what you should look for when you inspect your bicycle for this type of riding:
bent or broken components, such as the handlebar, handlebar stem, seatpost, pedals;
dents, cracks, scratches, deformation, or discoloration. Because damage may be internal
and hidden, if any of these signs are present, stop riding until your bicycle has been
thoroughly inspected by your Specialized dealer.
