OWNER`S MANUAL 2016 | SHORT MANUAL
For more information see the chapter “Wheels and tyres” in your detailed
BERGAMONT owner’s manual as well as in the manuals of the component
manufacturers on the enclosed BERGAMONT info CD.
4. Test the brakes at standstill by firmly pulling the brake levers towards the
handlebars (a). The brake pads of rim brakes must hit the rim evenly with
their entire surface without touching the tyre during braking, in open con-
dition 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 BERGAMONT short manual as
well as in your detailed BERGAMONT owner’s manual and in the manuals of the
component manufacturers on the enclosed BERGAMONT info CD.
5. Let your BERGAMONT bike bounce on the ground from a small height (b).
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 (c). For more information see the chapters “Front suspension”, “Rear
suspension“ and “Suspension seat posts“ in this BERGAMONT short manual
as well as in your detailed BERGAMONT owners manual and in the manuals
of the component manufacturers on the enclosed BERGAMONT info CD.
7. If your bike has a kick-stand, make sure it is fully raised (d) before you set off.
Risk of falling!
8. Do not forget to take a high quality D- (e) 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 (f). 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 on the enclosed BERGAMONT info CD.
DANGER!
G
Do not use your BERGAMONT bike, if it fails at one of these points! A de-
fective BERGAMONT bike can lead to serious accidents! If you are in doubt
or if you have any questions, contact your BERGAMONT dealer.
DANGER!
G
Improperly closed fastenings, e.g. quick-releases, can cause parts of your
BERGAMONT bike to come loose and result in serious accidents!
DANGER!
G
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.
DANGER!
G
During use your BERGAMONT bike is undergoing stress resulting from the
surface of the road and from the rider’s action. Due to these dynamic loads,
the different parts of your bike react with wear and fatigue. Please check your
BERGAMONT bike regularly, i.e. according to the BERGAMONT service and
maintenance schedule, for wear marks, scratches, deformations, colour chang-
es and any indication of cracking. Components which have reached the end of
their service life may break without previous warning. Let your BERGAMONT
dealer maintain and service your BERGAMONT bike regularly. In cases of doubt
it is always best to replace components.
