size and riding conditions. Impacts, falls, improper use or harsh use in
general may compromise the structural integrity of the components
and significantly reduce their lifespan. Some components are also
subject to wear over time. Please have your bicycle regularly ins-
pected by a qualified mechanic for any cracks, deformation, signs
of fatigue or wear (use of penetrating fluid or other visual enhancers
to locate cracks on parts is recommended). If the inspection reveals
any deformation, cracks, impact marks or stress marks, no matter how
slight, immediately replace the component; components that have
experienced excessive wear also need immediate replacement. The
frequency of inspection depends on many factors; check with your
authorized representative of Campagnolo S.r.l. to select a schedule
that is best for you. If you weigh 82 kg/180 lbs or more, you must be
especially vigilant and have your bicycle inspected more frequently
(than someone weighting less than 82 kg/180 lbs) for any evidence of
cracks, deformation, or other signs of fatigue or stress. Check with your
mechanic to discuss whether the components you selected are suita-
ble for your use, and to determine the frequency of inspections.
