Exercise caution with chainrings and pointed, aggressive platform pedals,
as they have sharp and potentially dangerous surfaces.
If you have features (such as suspension or brake systems) not covered by
this manual, you should have a supplement included with your manual. If you
suspect that supplements might be missing, contact your Authorized
Cannondale Retailer, or call us at one of the numbers listed on the back cover.
CAUTION: Cannondale urges consumers not to install “Bar Ends” on bicycles.
Some handlebars are designed to take the added stress of bar ends, others
are not. Very lightweight handlebars may be particularly poorly suited for
bar ends. If you want bar ends, consult your Authorized Cannondale Retailer
about suitable choices, read and follow instructions and warnings that
accompany the handlebars and bar ends, and inspect the handlebars and bar
ends regularly.
Be careful when making tight turns. Be aware that many small frame
size
bicycles with 700c wheels, such as racing, touring and hybrid, may not
have clearance between the toe clips and the front tire. Avoid such
contact, which could distract you, disrupt your turn or cause a fall.
(see section E.)
WARNING: Downhill mountain biking can lead to serious accidents. Wear
appropriate safety gear and be sure your bike is in perfect condition.
Follow all instructions below. EVEN WITH STATE-OF-THE-ART PROTECTIVE
SAFETY GEAR YOU COULD BE SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED when doing
downhill riding.
