1. First
NOTE: We strongly urge you to read this Manual in its entirety before your first ride. At the very least, read and make
sure that you understand each point in this section, and refer to the cited sections on any issue which you don’t com-
pletely understand. Please note that not all bicycles have all of the features described in this Manual. Ask your dealer
to point out the features of your bicycle.
A. Bike Fit
1. Is your bike the right size? To check, see Section 3.A. If your bicycle is too large or too small for you, you may
lose control and fall. If your new bike is not the right size, ask your dealer to exchange it before you ride it.
2. Is the saddle at the right height? To check, see Section 3.B. If you adjust your saddle height, follow the
Minimum Insertion instructions in Section 3.B.
3. Are saddle and seat post securely clamped? A correctly tightened saddle will allow no saddle movement in
any direction. See Section 3.B.
4. Are the stem and handlebars at the right height for you? If not, see Section 3.C.
5. Can you comfortably operate the brakes? If not, you may be able to adjust their angle and reach. See Section
3.D and 3.E.
6. Do you fully understand how to operate your new bicycle? If not, before your first ride, have your dealer
explain any functions or features which you do not understand.
B. sAFety First
1. Always wear an approved helmet when riding your bike, and follow the helmet manufacturer’s instructions
for fit, use and care.
2. Do you have all the other required and recommended safety equipment? See Section 2. It’s your responsibility
to familiarize yourself with the laws of the areas where you ride, and to comply with all applicable laws.
3. Do you know how to correctly secure your front and rear wheels? Check Section 4.A.1 to make sure. Riding
with an improperly secured wheel can cause the wheel to wobble or disengage from the bicycle, and cause
serious injury or death.
4. If your bike has toeclips and straps or clipless (“step-in”) pedals, make sure you know how they work (see
Section 4.E). These pedals require special techniques and skills. Follow the pedal manufacturer’s instructions
for use, adjustment and care.
5. Do you have “toe overlap”? On smaller framed bicycles your toe or toeclip may be able to contact the front
wheel when a pedal is all the way forward and the wheel is turned. Read Section 4.E. to check whether you
have toeclip overlap.
6. Does your bike have suspension? If so, check Section 4.F. Suspension can change the way a bicycle per
forms. Follow the suspension manufacturer’s instructions for use, adjustment and care.
C. MeChAniCAl sAFety CheCk
Routinely check the condition of your bicycle before every ride.
• Nuts, bolts screws & other fasteners: Because manufacturers use a wide variety of fastener sizes and
shapes
made in a variety of materials, often differing by model and component, the correct tightening force
or torque cannot be generalized. To make sure that the many fasteners on your bicycle are correctly
