Owner's Manual

Like any sport, cycling involves risk of injury and damage. By choosing to ride a bicycle, you assume the

responsibility for that risk, so you need to know — and to practice — the rules of safe and responsible

riding and of proper use and maintenance. Proper use and maintenance of your bicycle reduces risk of

injury.

This Manual contains many warnings and cautions concerning the consequences of failure to maintain

or inspect your bicycle and of failure to follow safe cycling practices.

Many of the Warnings and Cautions say “you may lose control and fall”.

Because any fall can result in serious injury or even death, we do not always repeat the warning of

possible injury or death.

Because it is impossible to anticipate every situation or condition which can occur while riding, this

Manual makes no representation about the safe use of the bicycle under all conditions. There are risks

associated with the use of any bicycle which cannot be predicted or avoided, and which are the sole

responsibility of the rider.
