2. Safety
2.1 General safety
DANGER
Inadequate protective equipment can cause injuries!
Effective protective cycling equipment helps increase your personal safety.
• Always wear a helmet.
• Always wear highly visible and reflective clothing.
DANGER
Improperly installed components can cause serious crashes!
Any improperly installed components could loosen during the ride!
• Always follow the installation instructions included in this manual.
• If in doubt, please consult the ROSE service or a qualified bicycle mechanic.
DANGER
Risk of accident due to reduced braking performance caused by brake pads that are not broken in!
Disc brakes can only achieve full braking power when the brake pads are broken in. Choose a place away from
public roads to break in the pads.
• Brake 20 to 30 times with the front or rear brake from a speed of 30 km/h down to 5 km/h and repeat the
process for the second brake. You should brake as hard as possible without locking either of the wheels.
• Please see the brake manufacturer’s instructions for more information (see enclosed manual).
DANGER
Risk of accident due to sudden total failure of pre-damaged components!
A fall or unforeseeable manoeuvres can cause damages to components of your bike. Even though you might not
immediately notice those damages, it is always possible that pre-damaged components deform or break while
riding.
• Regularly check your components for damages.
• Components that are subject to high stress must be regularly replaced and checked by a qualified bicycle
mechanic.
2.2 The rider’s duty of care
Following the instructions specified in this manual does not absolve the riders from their duty of care to ensure that
their bike is always in good condition. If there are any questions, consult a qualified bicycle mechanic or the ROSE
service team.
