SAFETY AND BEHAVIOUR
Dear SCOTT Customer,
Congratulations on your purchase of a new SCOTT bike. We are confident that the
bike will exceed your expectations for quality, functioning and riding characteristics.
Our SCOTT frames and components are customized and adjusted to suit the needs
of the users to enhance your joy when riding on your new SCOTT bike – whether you
are a beginner or a non-professional road racer or not!
To ensure that you ride safely and with joy, we strongly encourage you to take the
time to read this SCOTT general manual thoroughly.
If you have purchased a SCOTT bike for your child, make sure he/she understands
the information contained in this manual and can handle the new SCOTT bike
accordingly.
In purchasing this SCOTT bike you have chosen a product of high quality. Each
component of your new SCOTT bike has been designed, manufactured and as-
sembled with great care and expertise. Your SCOTT dealer gave the bike its final
assembly and made a functional check. This guarantees you pleasure and a sense
of confidence from the very first turn of the pedals.
This SCOTT general manual contains a wealth of useful facts on the proper use of
your SCOTT bike, its maintenance and operation as well as interesting information
on bike design and engineering. Read this SCOTT general manual thoroughly. We
are sure that even if you have been cycling for many years you will find it worthwhile.
Bike technology has developed at a rapid pace during recent years.
Therefore, before setting off on your new SCOTT bike, you should read at least the
chapter “Tests before your first ride”.
To ensure as much fun and safety as possible during cycling, be sure to carry out
the functional check described in the chapter “Tests before every ride” before set-
ting off on your SCOTT bike.
Even a manual as detailed as an encyclopaedia could not describe every possible
combination of available bicycle models and components. The SCOTT general
manual therefore focuses on your newly purchased SCOTT bike and standard
components and provides useful information and warnings.
When doing any adjusting and servicing, be aware that the detailed instructions
provided in your manual only refer to this SCOTT bike.
The information included here is not applicable to any other bicycle type. As
bicycles come in a wide variety of designs with frequent model changes, the
routines described may require complementary information. It is essential to also
observe the detailed original SCOTT operating instructions “Trekking and Trek-
king-Pedelec”, “MTB and MTB-Pedelec” and “Road Bike” on the SCOTT web page,
your model specific manual and the manuals of the component manufacturers.
Be aware that these instructions may require further explanation, depending on
the experience and/or skills of the person doing the work. For some jobs you may
require additional (special) tools or supplementary instructions.
This manual cannot teach you the skills of a bicycle mechanic.
