Before Your First Ride

1. If you want to use your bicycle on public roads, it has to comply with the

respective legal requirements. These regulations differ from country to country.

Therefore, bicycles are not necessarily ﬁtted completely. Ask your STEVENS

dealer for the laws and regulations applicable in your country or in the country

you intend to use the STEVENS bicycle. Have your STEVENS bicycle equipped

accordingly, before using it on public roads.

2. Are you familiar with the brake system? Have a look at the bike card and check

whether the brake lever of the front brake is on the side you are used to (right

or left). If it is not, ask your STEVENS dealer to switch the brake levers before

you set off for the ﬁrst time.

Your new bicycle is equipped with modern brakes which may be far more

powerful than those you were used to so far. Be sure to ﬁrst practise using the

brakes on a level, non-slip surface off public roads!

For more information see chapter “The Brake System” further below and in

your comprehensive STEVENS user manual as well as in the instructions of the

component manufacturers on the enclosed CD-ROM.

3. Are you familiar with the type and functioning of the gears? Ask your STEVENS

dealer to explain you the gear system and make yourself familiar with your new

gears in an area free of trafﬁc, if necessary.

For more information see chapter “The Gears” further below and in your

comprehensive STEVENS user manual as well as in the instructions of the

component manufacturers on the enclosed CD-ROM.

4. Are both saddle and handlebars properly adjusted? The saddle should be set

to a height from which you can just reach the pedal in its lowest position with

your heel. Check whether your toes reach to the ﬂoor when you are sitting on

the saddle.

For more information see chapter “Adjusting the STEVENS Bicycle to the

Rider” further below and in your comprehensive STEVENS user manual as

well as in the instructions of the component manufacturers on the enclosed

CD-ROM.

Danger:

Be aware that the dis-

tance you need to stop

your bicycle increases,

when you are riding

with your hands on aer-

odynamic handlebars,

on bar ends or on multi

position handlebars.

The brake levers are

not always within easy

reach.

5. If your STEVENS bicycle is equipped with clipless or step-in pedals: Have you

ever tried the shoes they go with? Do not set off until you have practised

engaging and disengaging the shoes from the pedals in stationary. Ask your

STEVENS dealer to explain you the pedals.

For more information see chapter “The Pedal Systems” in your comprehen-

sive STEVENS user manual as well as in the instructions of the component

manufacturers on the enclosed CD-ROM.

6. If you have bought a STEVENS suspension bicycle, you should ask your

STEVENS dealer to adjust the suspension mechanism to your needs before

delivery. Improperly adjusted suspension components are liable to malfunction

or damage. In any case they will impair the performance of your bicycle as well

as your safety and joy whilst cycling.

For more information see chapters “Suspension Forks” and “Full Suspen-

sion of the Mountain Bike Models” further below and in your comprehensive

STEVENS user manual as well as in the instructions of the component manu-

facturers on the enclosed CD-ROM.

Caution:

Before towing a trailer

with your STEVENS

bicycle or mounting a

child carrier, have a look

at the bike card and

contact your STEVENS

dealer.

Danger:

In case you had a crash with your STEVENS bicycle, perform at least the

check described in chapter “Before Every Ride“. Ride back very carefully

by taking the shortest route possible, even if your STEVENS bicycle went

through this check without any problems. Do not accelerate or brake hard

and do not ride your bicycle out of the saddle. If you are in doubt, have

yourself picked up by car, instead of taking any risk. Back home you need

to check once again your STEVENS bicycle thoroughly. If you are in doubt

or if you have any questions, contact your STEVENS dealer.

Note:

It is recommendable that you take out a private liability insurance. Contact

your insurance agency. Becoming member in a bicycle association may

also provide insurance coverage.
