z For long downhill stretches avoid using the
back pedal brake for a long time (this heats
up the back pedal break hub too much).
z If the brake lever can be pulled by more than
half of its path to the handlebars, it should
be adjusted.
z The braking surfaces must be clean and free
of grease, and the brake covers must be
parallel to each other (refer to Fig 1).
z The brake cover should rest 1 mm below the
top edge of the rim and be assembled at a
slight angle to the rim (refer to Fig. 2).
z Worn covers must be exchanged immedi-
ately! When exchanging them ensure that
they use original covers or at the least that
they match the rim material (e.g. the "Alloy /
Alu" marking for aluminium rims).
Be aware of rim wear and tear
Regularly check the status of the rims
and pay particular attention to the ro-
tary wear slot. Contact your specialist work-
shop in good time (when you can still see the
slot a little). Risk of breakage and injury!

Changing gears
Please observe the enclosed gear manufac-
turer's manual (varies with model).
Maintenance
The"Settings after manufacture" sec-
tion should be repeated at regular in-
tervals.
The initial check should be repeated
for safety reasons after cycling for a
few hours. A specialist should check the set-
tings / lubrication of the hub and ball bearing
from time to time.
As is the case for all mechanical components
the bike is subject to wear and tear. Different
materials can respond in various ways to wear
and use. If the design lifespan for a component
is exceeded the component may fail suddenly
and could result in injury to the cyclist. Any
type of split, scratch or colour change in highly
used areas is evidence that the component's
lifespan is coming to an end and should be
replaced.
