10 Maintenance
WARNING
Like any mechanical component, bikes are subject to wear and tear as well as high
stresses. The reaction of various materials and components to wear or stress fatigue
may dier. Should the life expectancy of a component be exceeded, it could lead to
sudden failure and possibly cause injuries to the rider. Any sign of breakages, cracks,
scratches or discolouration in areas that are subject to a high load indicates that the
component has reached the end of its life and should be replaced. Failure to observe
this information can result in material damage, severe damage to health (danger to
life) or death.
CAUTION
To ensure proper functioning of your woom bike, follow the maintenance recommen-
dations for the individual components in this chapter and the recommended actions in
the maintenance schedule for periodic inspection (see Chapter 11). Failure to observe
this information can result in faulty function, material damage, dangerous situations
and injury.
