RISK OF ACCIDENT DUE TO IMPROPERLY MOUNTED COMPONENTS!
Improperly installed components can become loose or break during the ride!
• The assembly must be carried out according to the assembly instructions.
• In case of doubt, the PROPAIN Service or a qualified bicycle mechanic must be consulted.
DANGER
DANGER OF ACCIDENT DUE TO REDUCED BRAKING POWER AS A RESULT OF BRAKE PADS NOT BEING BRAKED IN!
Disc brakes can only develop their full braking power after careful braking in the brake pads. To do this, choose a road away from public traffic.
• Brake 20 to 30 times with the front or rear brake from 30 km/h to 5 km/h and then repeat the process for the second brake. Braking should be as hard as possible without locking any of the wheels.
• Please see the brake manufacturer' s instructions for more information (see also „8.2 Further Information" on page 40).
DANGER
RISK OF ACCIDENT DUE TO SUDDEN FAILURE OF PRE-DAMAGED COMPONENTS!
A crash or unplanned riding manoeuvres can pre-damage components of your bike unnoticed. Pre-damaged components can be deformed or break while riding.
• Check your components regularly and after a crash or accident for damage and malfunctions.
• Components that are subject to high stress must be regularly replaced and checked by a qualified bicycle mechanic. Damaged components must be replaced immediately.
