WARNING
• Any failure to follow these warnings and instructions can result in breakage, slippage and or
other malfunctioning of this Profile Design component causing a loss of control of the bicycle
with serious injuries. [AP1100-1-1]
• A creaking component can be a sign of potential problems. Make sure all contact surfaces
between components are clean, all bolt threads are greased or are treated with proper thread
lock and tightened to Profile Design's (or the bike manufacturer's) specifications and all
components are properly sized to fit together. If you continue to experience creaking stop
using the Profile Design component and call Profile Design customer service. [AP0601-2-2]
• Under tightening a bolt can result in a part coming loose while riding and an over
tightened bolt can break unexpectedly or strip the threads it is engaging while riding also
resulting in a loss of control. All bolts must be tightened to Profile Design's (or the bike
manufacturer's) torque specifications. On the first and any subsequent assembly examine
all male and female threads and bolts for stripped threads, cracks and any required
lubrication or thread locking compound. [AP1100-3-2]
• Periodically, closely examine all surfaces of this Profile Design component (after cleaning) in
bright sunlight to check for any small hairline cracks or fatigue at "stress points" (such as welds,
seams, holes, points of contact with other parts etc.). If you see any cracks, no matter how
small, stop using the part immediately and call
Profile Design customer service. [AP0302-4-2]
• Whenever you install any new component on your bike make sure you thoroughly try it out
close to home (with your helmet) where there are no obstacles or traffic. Make sure everything
is working properly before going off on a ride or to a race. [AP1100-5-1]

• Racing (road, mountain or multi-sport) places extreme stress on bicycles and their components
(like it does riders) and significantly shortens their usable life. If you participate in these types of
events, the lifetime of the product may be significantly shortened depending upon the level and
amount of racing. The "normal wear" of a component may differ greatly between competitive
and non-competitive uses, which is why professional level riders often use new bikes and
components each season as well as having their bikes serviced by professional mechanics.
Particular care should be placed in the regular examination of your bicycle and it's components
to insure your safety. [AP1100-6-1]
• A number of factors can reduce the life of this component to less than its warranty period.
Rider size and/or strength and riding style, high mileage, rough terrain, abuse, improper
installation, sweat, adverse environmental conditions (such as salt air or corrosive rain),
travel damage (especially if bike and components are repeatedly disassembled and then
reassembled) and crashes or accidents can all contribute to the shortening of the life of
this component. The more factors that are present, the more the life of the component is
reduced. [AP0801-7-2]
For products purchased in countries other than the United States please contact Profile Design's
authorized distributor in the country where the product was purchased. They can be found on our
