ABC Quick Drop Test
We design our bikes so that they can be everyday companions. For safety, however, we recommend this test before each ride:
A
AIR
Check the air pressure on
your Tires. Use your thumb
to press the Tires. They
should feel nice and firm but
avoid over-inflating.

BRAKES AND BARS
Check the Brakes by squeezing
the Levers and making sure the
bike stops. Check that the Brake
Cables are undamaged and
untangled.
Check that Bars (Handlebar,
Handlepost, Handlebar
Extensions) are tightly in place
and undamaged by turning the
Handlebar left and right with the
Front Wheel in
between your legs.
C
CHAIN AND CABLES
Check that Chain turns freely
through Gears by rotating the
Crank backwards, and make
sure Cables are undamaged.
