Before you start riding
WaRninG
Unexpected bicycle handling.
Risk of accident and injury!
• Practice using the brakes and changing gears in a loca-
tion that is free of traffic.
• Enter road traffic only if you know how the bicycle nor-
mally handles and you know how to operate it.
WaRninG
After cycling the first kilometres, cables and spokes may
elongate and screwed connections may loosen. The com-
ponents of the bicycle may malfunction, e.g. in the form
of brake failure.
Risk of accident and injury!
•
Make sure that a bicycle inspection is carried out by a
specialist dealer after the first 200 km.
WaRninG
Material failure caused by use-related wear and loose
screw connections.
Risk of accident and injury!
•
Check your bicycle before each ride, following the
inspection instructions.
•
If in any doubt, ask your specialist dealer to show you
how to check your bicycle.
• Only use the bicycle if no damage is visible.
• Only use the bicycle, if you cannot see any signs of
excessive wear and cannot find any loose screw con-
nections.
Your bicycle has been fully assembled and adjusted by your spe
-
cialist dealer; it is now ready to ride.
Ensure that you are well acquainted with your bicycle before your
first ride.
•
Hold on to both handlebar grips firmly with both hands while riding.
•
Do not ride one-handed; the handlebars can turn while braking.
•
If you have hydraulic brakes, apply both brake levers multiple
times to centre the brake pads in the brake calliper.
•
Accustom yourself to the way the bicycle rides away from road
traffic.
•
If you find that the location of the brake lever for the front wheel
or rear wheel brake is unfamiliar to you, you can ask your spe-
cialist dealer to reposition them for you.
