sary adjustments can result into an accident, fatal injury or even death.

nished parts at your suspension fork or any
other part of your bicycle? If so, please con-
sult a trained and qualified bicycle mechanic
to check your fork or bike.
►Can you notice any oil leaking out your fork?
Also check out hidden areas like the bottom

you have reached the required value. Please

trained and qualified bicycle mechanic. Please note, that improperly installed forks are
extremely dangerous and can cause damage to the product, serious injuries or even death.
