the steering turns stiff, there are likely to be problems with the steering: contact the service center.

WARNING
The bicycle and its mechanical components are subject to wear. The materials of which they are composed have
different life cycles. IT IS RECOMMENDED TO CHECK THE BIKE PERIODICALLY OR AT LEAST ONCE A YEAR TO EVALUATE
THE CORRECT FUNCTIONALITY AND THE STATE OF WEAR OF THE COMPONENTS AND REPLACE IT IF NECESSARY.
Flat tire
Do not use the bicycle in the event of a flat or partially flat tire. Carry it by hand.
If a tire punctures, release the wheel from the hub to remove it and deflate the tire. Remove the tire with the aid of a
tire lever to remove it from the rim. Remove the perforated inner tube and replace it. Inflate the chamber slightly and
reposition the tire on the rim above the chamber. Be careful not to pinch the new inner tube between the rim and the
tire. Turn the wheel to make sure that the whole tire is correctly positioned on the rim and that the chamber is
completely inside it. Inflate slowly to the recommended pressure, checking the position of the tire on the rim.
Reposition the wheel. In case of difficulty, contact the service center which will replace them.
CAUTION
We recommend that you use only a tire lever for this operation. Otherwise, using a screwdriver or any other tool, you
risk puncturing the inner tube.

Dust the frame with a soft cloth, remove the dirt with a damp cloth and non-abrasive detergent. Do not use high
pressure cleaners. Dry all parts carefully and periodically apply car wax.
