LIFESPAN - WEAR - INSPECTION REQUIRED
None of our products are validated until they have passed stringent tests that exceed current
standards (EN 14781).
The lifespan of each LOOK component depends on numerous factors, such as the body shape
and size of the cyclist and the conditions of use. Impacts, falls, inappropriate use or generally
rough use can compromise the structural integrity of the components and considerably
reduce their lifespan.
Certain components are also subject to wear over time. Have your pedals checked regularly
by an approved LOOK retailer in order to ensure the absence of cracks, deformities or signs
of wear and tear. If the inspection reveals deformities, cracks, signs of impact or strain, even
if they are mild, you must immediately replace the relevant component. Any components that
have experienced excessive wear must also be immediately replaced. Inspection frequency
depends on numerous factors; consult your approved LOOK retailer.
Component replacements must be carried out by an approved LOOK retailer.
The list of replaceable components is available from approved LOOK retailers.

Cycling, and particularly mountain biking, are dangerous activities by nature. To reduce
the risk of serious injury, you must ensure that your bicycle is suitably maintained and that
each component is correctly installed and adjusted. Always wear a helmet when cycling
and ensure that you are aware of the highway code and that you respect it. Beware of the
dangers of the road and traffic. Be aware of current applicable laws in the country in which
you are cycling. If you are cycling at night, it is not enough just to see; you must also be seen.
Reflectors are not sufficient and are no replacement for front and rear lights. It is strongly
advisable to wear a reflective garment which is obligatory in some countries.
