4. After every long or hard ride or after every 10 to

20 hours of riding:

• Squeeze the front brake and rock the bike forward and back.

Everything feel solid? If you feel a clunk with each forward or

backward movement of the bike, you probably have a loose

headset. Have your dealer check it.

• Lift the front wheel off the ground and swing it from side to side.

Feel smooth? If you feel any binding or roughness in the steer-

ing, you may have a tight head set. Have your dealer check it.

•

Grab one pedal and rock it toward and away from the centerline

of the bike; then do the same with the other pedal. Anything feel

loose? If so, have your dealer check it.

• Take a look at the brake pads. Starting to look worn or not hit-

ting the wheel rim squarely? Time to have the dealer adjust or

replace them.

•

Carefully check the control cables and cable housings. Any rust?

Kinks? Fraying? If so, have your dealer replace them

• Squeeze each adjoining pair of spokes on either side of each

wheel between your thumb and index nger. Do they all feel

about the same? If any feel loose, have your dealer check the

wheel for tension and trueness.

• Check the tires for excess wear, cuts or bruises. Have your

dealer replace them if necessary.

• Check the wheel rims for excess wear, dings, dents and

scratches. Consult your dealer if you see any rim damage.

• Check to make sure that all parts and accessories are still

secure, and tighten any which are not.

• Check the frame, particularly in the area around all tube

joints; the handlebars; the stem; and the seatpost for any deep

scratches, cracks or discoloration. These are signs of stress-

caused fatigue and indicate that a part is at the end of its useful

life and needs to be replaced. See also Appendix B [p.35].

WARNING: Like any mechanical device, a bicycle and

its components are subject to wear and stress. Different

materials and mechanisms wear or fatigue from stress

at different rates and have different life cycles. If a

component’s life cycle is exceeded, the component

can suddenly and catastrophically fail, causing serious

injury or death to the rider. Scratches, cracks, fraying

and discoloration are signs of stress-caused fatigue

and indicate that a part is at the end of its useful life

and needs to be replaced. While the materials and

workmanship of your bicycle or of individual components

may be covered by a warranty for a specied period of

time by the manufacturer, this is no guarantee that the

product will last the term of the warranty. Product life

is often related to the kind of riding you do and to the

treatment to which you submit the bicycle. The bicycle’s

warranty is not meant to suggest that the bicycle cannot

be broken or will last forever. It only means that the

bicycle is covered subject to the terms of the warranty.

Please be sure to read Appendix A, Life Expectancy of

Your Bicycle and its Components, starting on page 35.

5. As required: If either brake lever fails the Mechanical

Safety Check [Section 1.C], don’t ride the bike. Have your

dealer check the brakes.

If the chain won’t shift smoothly and quietly from gear to

gear, the derailleur is out of adju stment. See your dealer.

Every 25 (hard off-road) to 50 (on-road) hours of

riding: Take your bike to your dealer for a complete checkup.

B) IF YOUR BICYCLE SUSTAINS AN IMPACT

First, check yourself for injuries, and take care of them as

best you can. Seek medical help if necessary.

Next, check your bike for damage, and x what you

can so you can get home. Then, take your bicycle to

your dealer for a thorough check. See also Appendix B,

Lifespan of Your Bike and its Components [p.35].
