WARNING:
- Inspect the bicycle frequently. Failure to inspect the bicycle and to make repairs or adjustments, as
necessary, can result in injury to the rider or to others. Make sure all parts are correctly assembled
and adjusted as written in this manual and any
“Special Instructions”.
- Immediately replace any damaged, missing, or badly worn parts.
- Make sure all fasteners are correctly tightened as written in this manual and any
“Special Instruc-
tions”
. Parts that are not tight enough can be lost or operate poorly. Overtightened parts can be
damaged. Make sure any replacement fasteners are the correct size and type.
-If your bicycle has a suspension fork, inspect the top of the fork around the welded joints
carefully and frequently for very small cracks. If you see any small cracks, stop riding the
bicycle. Have the frame inspected by a qualified professional at a bicycle service shop
before riding the bicycle again.
NOTE: Have a bicycle service shop make any repairs or adjustments for which you do not have the
correct tools or if the instructions in this manual or any “Special Instructions” are not sufficient for you.
Repair and Service
- If your frame is aluminum, inspect the bicycle frame carefully and frequently. Aluminum
frames can develop very small cracks due to stress, severe shocks, etc. If you see any
small cracks, stop riding the bicycle. Have the frame inspected by a qualified professional
at a bicycle service shop before riding the bicycle again.
Suspension Frame (on some models)
Adjustments
The bicycle may have an adjustable shock-absorbing
suspension. You can change the suspension, as you
prefer, for a softer or a firmer ride.
To change the suspension:
- For a softer ride, turn the adjusting nut [1] clockwise so
the suspension spring [2] is compressed less
- For a firmer ride, turn the adjusting nut counter
clockwise so the suspension spring is compressed
more.
