f Check wheels after running them in and have them
recentred by the bicycle dealer if necessary.
f Contact a bicycle dealer at the latest when one of the
following events occurs:
– after the first 300 km of driving,
– after 15 hours of use,
– after 3 months.
f Check the wheels for proper condition every six months:
The wheels must be free of damage and correctly
aligned.
7.1.1 Rims and spokes
Correct and even tensioning of the rims stabilises the con-
centricity of the wheels. Impaired concentricity endangers
the stability of the rim, which may break as a result.
If you drive over obstacles (e.g. a kerb) quickly or if a spoke
nipple comes loose, this can affect the tension of the spo-
kes.
7.1.2 Tyre types
The tyre and rim are (usually) not air-tight themselves, but
contain a tube that is filled with air via the valve. Excepti-
ons*: Tubular tyres and UST tyres.
An indication of the tyre size (mm or inch (")) is usually found
on the tyre sidewall.
* Airtight systems without additional hose.
