SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
BICYCLE SAFETY
As with all mechanical components, the bicycle is subjected to wear and high stresses.
Different materials and components might react to wear or stress fatigue in different ways.
If the design life of a component has been exceeded, it may suddenly fail, possibly causing
injuries or death to the rider. Any form of crack, scratches, or change of colouring in highly
stressed areas indicate that the life of the component has been reached and it should be
replaced. Additionally, after a crash or impact even without visible damage – affected
components should be replaced or a professional opinion should be sought.
For composite components for example the frame, impact damage is often invisible to the
user. In the event of any impact you should stop using the bicycle immediately and return
affected components to the manufacturer for inspection. Failure to do so may result in
catastrophic failure and injury or death.
USAGE
This product is intended for off road use on trails and tracks. It is not designed for use on
Downhill racing and tracks. The use of this product in downhill bike parks including jumps or
drops is not recommended. The use of any bicycle on or off-road, even the best circumstances,
is dangerous and may result in injury or death. Correct set-up and maintenance is your
responsibility and helps reduce the risk of injury, death, or damage to your bicycle.
ENVIRONMENTAL
High or low temperature exposure may result in damage to components. The safe operating
temperature is between -10°C and +50°C.
PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
The use of a bicycle helmet and gloves are recommended as well as other protective gear
appropriate to the terrain – for example knee guards, elbow guards or a spine protector.
