NERO FORKS SAFETY GUIDELINES
•The NERO forks produced by FORMULA. are designed exclusively for use on two
wheel bicycles. Any other use is to be considered hazardous. FORMULA. shall not be
held liable for any consequences from improper use.
•If the fork ever loses oil or makes unusual noises, stop riding and have it inspected
by FORMULA. or an authorized dealer. Continuing to use a malfunctioning fork can
cause a sudden loss of control, resulting in serious injury or death. Some sounds,
such as oil flow, minor clicks, and spring rattle, are considered normal. When in
doubt, consult your local FORMULA dealer.
•NERO forks have a crown / steerer . These parts are pressed together through a
single precision pressing operation. Replacing any of these parts requires a com-
plete new upper assembly. Never attempt to remove or replace the steerer indepen-
dently from the crown. NEVER ATTEMPT TO CUT THREADS INTO THE THREADLESS
STEERER. Modifying the crown / steerer assembly can cause loss of control of the
bicycle and serious injury or death.
•Impact, falls, improper or harsh use of the bicycle may compromise the structural
integrity of the forks, significantly reducing their lifespan.
•Have the forks regularly inspected by a qualified mechanic for any cracks, deforma-
tion, signs of fatigue or wear. Use of penetrating fluid or other visual enhancers to
locate cracks on parts is recommended.
•If inspection reveals any deformation, cracks, signs of impact or stress, no matter
how slight, immediately replace the component. Excessively worn components also
require immediate replacement.
•The frequency at which inspection is required depends on many factors. Ask a FOR-
MULA. dealer to recommend an inspection and service schedule that is right for you.
•If you weigh more than 90kg/198 Ibs be especially careful and have the bike in-
spected more frequently.
•Parts that have been bent or damaged in an accident, or as the result of impact,
must be imme-diately replaced with genuine FORMULA. replacement parts.
•The user of NERO forks expressly recognizes that there are risks inherent in bicycle
riding, including but not limited to failure of a bike component, resulting in an ac-
cident, personal injury or death.

knowingly accepts and/or assumes these risks, including but not limited to the risk
of passive negligence on the part of FORMULA., i.e. hidden, latent or obvious defects
and exempts FORMULA. from liability to the fullest extent permitted by law against
any resulting damage.
•Carefully read the NERO forks instructions before use.
•Carefully follow the scheduled maintenance program as indicated in the relative
paragraph.
