Operation

Before a First Ride

Make Sure Your Bicycle is the Correct Size

Your dealer will help you find a bicycle

that has the correct dimensions for your

body. There should be at least 1” (25 mm)

clearance between the top tube and you

when you stand over your bicycle (Figure 1).

For a mountain bicycle, we recommend 2-3”

(50-75 mm) clearance.

You can adjust the saddle and handlebar to offer

the best comfort and performance. Before you

make these adjustments, refer to Chapter 3.

Know How Your Bicycle Operates

The properties of your bicycle, if not used

correctly, can decrease your control of the bicycle.

Before you ride fast or in conditions that are a

problem, learn the operation and performance

of all the mechanisms of your bicycle, especially

brakes and steering components. As an example,

“aero-bars” can make steering and braking

difﬁcult. Practice the use of your bicycle at slower

speeds in a ﬂat, empty parking area. Repeat this

step after any change to your bicycle.

If your bicycle does not operate as necessary,

or if different parts are necessary for the safe

operation of your bicycle, speak to your dealer.

Learn the Power of Your Brakes

The power of bicycle brakes changes with the Use

Condition of the bicycle. If you think it is necessary

for your bicycle to have more—or less—power to

stop, speak to your dealer about brake adjustments

or other brake options for your bicycle.

Chapter 1: Guide to Safe On-and-Off Road Operation

WARNING: If you do not use the

brake system correctly or you apply

too much force with the front-wheel

brake, the brakes could decrease your

control and cause you to fall. Practice

to correctly apply your brakes as

shown in this manual.

Prevent Toe-clip Overlap

Some modern, high-performance bicycles,

especially smaller sizes, use a short-wheelbase

design with the front wheel close to the pedals.

Increasing the distance between the front

wheel and pedals could place the handlebar

too far away or make the steering unwieldy. On

bicycles where this distance is short, when the

handlebar is turned during very slow speeds

your foot or toe-clips could overlap or touch the

front wheel or fender (Figure 2).

This overlap is affected by the size of your feet,

the length of the crankarms, and the pedals

you choose. At usual speeds, the handlebar

does not turn sufﬁciently for overlap to occur.

When you ride slowly, do not pedal when the

handlebar is turned.

WARNING: If your foot or toe-clip

touches the front wheel or fender,

toe-clip overlap could decrease your

control and cause you to fall. Do not

pedal when you turn at slow speed.
