6. Bicycle rollers
•
The use of bicycle rollers with fixed clamps is
not permitted. By firmly restricting the drop-
outs and quick-release hub axles, mechanical
stresses occur which strongly exceed those
permitted for normal cycling operations. This
may result in damage to the bicycle frame.
7.

Transport:

•
Due care must be taken when transporting
wheels with carbon frames.
•
The frame should particularly be protected
against contact with other parts using a cover
for example.
•
No carrier or other such systems which use
clamping elements for fixing and mounting
may be used. These clamping forces may lead
to damage of the tubes or dropouts.
•
Do not place any objects on the frame.
•
Please ensure that the bicycle is in a fixed and
stable position during transport.

Before using for the first time

Risk of Personal injury and Material
damage!
an unroadworthy bike can lead to dange-
rous riding conditions, falling, accidents
and material damage. This same danger
exists if you are not yet familiar with your
new bike and its controls.
•
Check your bike in accordance with point 7.
•
Familiarise yourself with this bicycle before
you first ride it. In particular, check which
brake lever operates the front brake and
which the rear – see Section 4.8.1
•
Modern brakes have a very powerful braking
effect. Excessive pressure on the brake levers
can cause the respective wheel to lock and
can therefore cause you to fall.
Familiarise yourself slowly with the braking
effect on your bike in a safe area of land.
•
In a safe location, slowly test and become
accustomed to your bicycle's braking
response
• With new rim brakes and after replacing
brake blocks, the full braking effect only
develops after a certain run-in period. Please
therefore note that your braking distances
will initially be longer.
•
Disk brakes need to be initially run in.
Full braking efficiency only develops after
the running-in process. Please note the
enclosed brake manufacturer's running-in
instructions.
•
If your bike is fitted with optional click-in
pedals, which firmly connect the shoe with
the pedal, practise using them by mounting
and dismounting. Click-in pedals are not
safety pedals.
•
If after purchasing you remove the saddle
support and front and/or rear wheel for
transportation, please follow the appropria-
te instructions in Chapter 11.
1. Have your dealer confirm that the final
assembly of your bike has been car-
ried out correctly and that your bike is
roadworthy. Have your dealer adjust the
correct saddle position.

2. only use this bike when your dealer has
familiarised you with your bike's technical
features in a briefing.
3. Seal you bike with aerosol wax polish,
see Chapter 11.
4. Before riding your bike for the first time,

Before every trip

Risk of Personal injury and Material
damage!
an unroadworthy bike can lead to dange-
rous riding situations, falling, accidents
and material damage

bike may have fallen over when unatten-
ded or that someone might have tam-
pered with it.
•
Check that your bike is roadworthy before
every trip.

Memorise your bike's actual condition when
new so that you will later be able to recog-
nise deviations from the actual condition
(photos you take yourself can be
a valuable aid).
•
Contact your specialist dealer immediately
if you discover that the actual state of the
bicycle deviates from its specified condition.
•
Only ride your bicycle again if it has been
properly repaired by the specialist dealer.
