After A Fall - BH ATOM CROSS PRO Notice

1. Are the quick release mechanisms of the front and rear wheels, the
saddle post and other parts completely closed?
2. Are the tyres in good condition and with sufficient pressure in
both of them? Check the pressure.
You will find more information in the section titled «Tyres»
3. Let the wheels run freely to check the tracking. Also, check the
space between the brake pads and the wheel, as well as the space
between the frame and the tyre.
4. Check the brakes work before setting off, by activating the
brake lever with great force. The brake lever should not reach the
handlebar! There should not be any leaks of brake fluid. Also, check
the conditions of the pads.
You will find more information in the section titled «Brake
System»
5. Lift your bike a little off the ground then drop it on its wheels and
listen for any rattling to indicate if there are any loose nuts or bolts,
check the bearings and linkages for play.
6. If you decide to cycle on public roads, you should equip your bicycle
according to the legal requirements in your country. Riding without any
lights or reflectors when visibility is low or when dark is very dangerous.
Other users of public roads will not see you or will not be aware of your
presence until it is too late. When riding on public roads, you will always
need the authorized lighting appliances. When it becomes dark, switch
on the lights.
7. In the case that your bicycle is equipped with suspension,
check the frame: Press down on your bicycle and checking if the
suspension operates normally.
8. If necessary, make sure that the foot-stand is always completely
folded before starting. Falling hazards!
Do not ride your bicycle if it does not comply with any
of these points! A defective bicycle can cause serious
accidents! If you are not completely sure or you have any
doubt, contact your local BH workshop!
The terrain and forces that affect the wheels, can submit
the bicycle to much strain. Faced with these dynamic
forces, different parts react with wear and fatigue.
Regularly check your bicycle looking for signs of wear,
scratches, twists, worn colours or signs of cracking. Parts
whose useful life has passed can suddenly fail. Regularly
take your bicycle to a BH workshop to change suspect
parts if necessary.
Do not forget to always carry a quality padlock/lock/chain
whenever using your bicycle. That is the only way to avoid
theft efficiently.

3.3 After a fall.

1. Check that the wheels remained fixed and the tyres remain centred
in the frame and the fork. Spin the wheels. If the space appears to have
been significantly modified and you cannot re-centre it, you should
separate the brakes a little from the wheel so that this can turn freely.
Attention: In this case, take into account the braking efficiency will be
reduced.
