5. Let your BERGAMONT bike bounce on the ground from a small height. If there is any

rattling, check where it comes from. Check the bearings and bolted connections, if

necessary. Tighten them slightly, if necessary.

6. In case you have a BERGAMONT bike with suspension, press down on your

BERGAMONT bike and see whether the spring elements retract and extend as usual.

For more information see the chapters “Front suspension”, “Rear suspension” and

“Suspension seat posts” in this BERGAMONT general manual as well as in your

detailed BERGAMONT owner’s manual.

7. If your bike has a kick-stand, make sure it is fully raised (f) before you set off. Risk of

falling!

8. Do not forget to take a high quality D- or chain lock with you on your ride. The only

way to effectively protect your BERGAMONT bike against theft is to lock it to an

immovable object.

9. If you want to ride on public roads, make sure your BERGAMONT bike is equipped

according to the applicable regulations of your country. Riding without lights and

reflectors in dark or dim conditions is very dangerous, because you will be seen too

late or not at all by other road users.

A set of lights that corresponds to the regulations is a must on public roads. Turn on the

lights as soon as dusk sets in. For more information see the chapter “Legal requirements

for riding on public roads” in your detailed BERGAMONT owner’s manual.

•WARNING: Do not use your BERGAMONT bike, if it fails at one of these points!

A defective BERGAMONT bike can lead to serious accidents! If you are in doubt or if

you have any questions, contact your BERGAMONT dealer.

•WARNING: Improperly closed fastenings, e.g. quick-releases, can cause parts

of your BERGAMONT bike to come loose and result in serious accidents!

•WARNING: Be aware that the distance you need to stop your bike increases,

when you are riding with your hands on aero bars, on bar ends or on multi-position

handlebars. The brake levers are not always within easy reach.

TESTS BEFORE EVERY RIDE

Your BERGAMONT bike has undergone numerous tests during production and a

final check has been carried out by your BERGAMONT dealer. Nevertheless, be sure

to check the following points to exclude any malfunctioning that may be due to the

transport of your BERGAMONT bike or to changes a third person may have performed

on your BERGAMONT bike before delivery:

1. Are the quick-release levers (a),

thru axles or nuts of the front and rear wheel, the seat

post and other components properly closed? For more information see the chapter

“Using quick-releases and thru axles” in this BERGAMONT general manual as well as

in your detailed BERGAMONT owner’s manual.

2. Are the tyres in good condition and do they have sufficient pressure (b)? The

minimum and maximum pressure (in bar or PSI) is indicated on the tyre side (c). For

more information see the chapter “Wheels and tyres” in your detailed BERGAMONT

owner’s manual.

3. Spin the wheels to check whether the rims are true. If you have disc brakes, watch

the gap between frame and rim or tyre and, if you have rim brakes, between brake

pad and rim (d). Untrue rims can be an indication of tyres with ruptured sides or

broken spokes.

For more information see the chapter “Wheels and tyres” in your detailed

BERGAMONT owner’s manual.

4. Test the brakes in stationary by firmly pulling the brake levers towards the handlebars

(e). The brake pads of rim brakes must hit the rim evenly with their entire surface

without touching the tyre during braking, in open condition or in between. Make

sure you cannot pull the brake levers all the way to the handlebars and check the

hydraulic brake cables for oil or brake fluid leaks! Check the thickness of the brake

pads, as well.

With disc brakes you should have a stable pressure point at once. If you have to

actuate the brake lever more than once to get a positive braking response, have the

BERGAMONT bike checked by your BERGAMONT dealer immediately. For more

information see the chapter “Brakes” in this general manual. For additional infor-

mation on your bicycle and the web links for the component manufacturers, please

visit the manual pages of the bike brand you have purchased via your Quick Start

Manual.
