WARNING
This supplement may include procedures
beyond the scope of general mechanical
aptitude.
Special tools, skills, and knowledge may
be required. Improper mechanical work
increases the risk of an accident. Any
bicycle accident has risk of serious injury,
paralysis or death. To minimize risk
we strongly recommend that owners
always have mechanical work done by an
authorized Cannondale retailer.
Important Composites
Message
Your bike is made from composite materials
also known as “carbon ber.”.
All riders must understand a fundamental
reality of composites. Composite materials
constructed of carbon bers are strong and
light, but when crashed or overloaded, carbon
bers do not bend, they break.
For your safety, as you own and use the bike,
you must follow proper service, maintenance,
and inspection of all the composites (frame,
stem, fork, handlebar, seat post, etc.) Ask your
Cannondale Dealer for help.
We urge you to read PART II, Section D. “Inspect
For Safety” in your Cannondale Bicycle Owner’s
Manual BEFORE you ride.
WARNING
YOU CAN BE SEVERELY INJURED,
PARALYZED OR KILLED IN AN ACCIDENT
IF YOU IGNORE THIS MESSAGE.
