2.1 General safety
DANGER
Inadequate protective equipment can cause injuries!
Effective protective cycling equipment helps increase your personal safety.
• Always wear a helmet.
• When riding on trails or in bike parks, you are well advised to wear additional protective gear such as knee pads,
shin guards and elbow pads as well as gloves and back protectors.
DANGER
Risk of accident due to insufficient equipment for use on public roads!
The ROSE SCRUB is not intended for use on public roads. If you want to ride your bike on public roads nevertheless,
you should consult a qualified bicycle mechanic to retrofit all components required according to national road
traffic
regulations (lighting system, reflectors etc.).
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 team 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. You should brake as
hard as possible without locking one of the wheels.
• Please note the brake manufacturer’s instructions for more information (see enclosed manual).
DANGER
Risk of accident due to sudden total failure of pre-damaged components!
Bicycles are subject to high stress. A fall or unforeseeable manoeuvres cause unpredictable peak loads. These loads
can pre-damage 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.
