dangerous riding
• Use only designated areas for stunts, jumping, racing or fast downhill riding
• Wear a full face helmet, safety pads and other safety gear
• Understand and recognize that the stresses imposed on your bike by this kind of activity may break or
damage parts of the bicycle and void the warranty
• Take your bicycle to your dealer if anything breaks or bends. Do not ride your bicycle when any part is
damaged.
If you ride downhill at speed, do stunt riding or ride in competition, know the limits of your skill and experience.
Ultimately, avoiding injury is your responsibility.
G. `Changing Components or Adding Accessories
There are many components and accessories available to enhance the comfort, performance and
appearance of your bicycle. However, if you change components or add accessories, you do so at your own risk.
The bicycle’s manufacturer may not have tested that component or accessory for compatibility, reliability or
safety on your bicycle. Before installing any component or accessory, including a different size tire, make sure
that it is compatible with your bicycle by checking with your dealer. Be sure to read, understand and follow the
instructions that accompany the products you purchase for your bicycle. See also Appendix A, p. 35 and B, p. 41.
WARNING: Failure to confirm compatibility, properly install, operate and maintain any component or accessory can result in
serious injury or death.
WARNING: Changing the components on your bike with other than genuine replacement parts may compromise the safety of
your bicycle and may void the warranty. Check with your dealer before changing the components on your bike.
3. Fit
NOTE: Correct fit is an essential element of bicycling safety, performance and comfort. Making the adjustments to your bicycle which
result in correct fit for your body and riding conditions requires experience, skill and special tools. Always have your dealer make the
adjustments on your bicycle; or, if you have the experience, skill and tools, have your dealer check your work before riding.
