For more information see the chapter “Adjusting the SCOTT bike to the rider”
in this general manual. For additional information on your bicycle and the web
links for the component manufacturers, please visit the manual pages of the
bike brand you have purchased via your Quick Start Manual.
5. If your SCOTT bike is equipped with clipless or step-in pedals (b): Have you
ever tried cycling with the respective cycling shoes? First practice locking one
shoe onto a pedal and disengaging it while standing on the other leg. Ask your
SCOTT dealer to explain you the pedals and to adjust them to your needs.
For more information see the chapter “Pedals and shoes” in your detailed original
SCOTT operating instructions “Trekking and Trekking-Pedelec”, “MTB and MTB-
Pedelec” and “Road Bike” on the SCOTT web page and your model specific
manual.
6. If you purchased a SCOTT bike with suspension (c), you should ask your SCOTT
dealer to adjust the suspension settings to your needs. Improperly adjusted
suspension elements are liable to malfunction or damage. In any case they will
impair the performance of your bike as well as your safety and joy whilst riding.
For more information see the chapters “Front suspension”, “Rear suspension“
and “Suspension seat posts“ in this general manual. For additional information on
your bicycle and the web links for the component manufacturers, please visit the
manual pages of the bike brand you have purchased via your Quick Start Manual.
WARNING
Be aware that the distance you need to stop your bike increases, when you
are riding with your hands on aero bars, on bar ends or on multi-position
handlebars. The brake levers are not always within easy reach.
Be sure to use your SCOTT bike only according to its intended use, as it may
otherwise not withstand the stress and fail. Risk of falling!
Note that both braking effect and tyre grip can be reduced drastically in wet
conditions. Look well ahead when riding on wet roads and go well below the
speed you would ride at in dry conditions.
CAUTION
Make particularly sure there is enough space between your crotch and the
top tube so that you do not hurt yourself, if you have to get off your pedelec
quickly.
