CAUTION!
A
If your BERGAMONT bike is equipped with quick-releases, be sure to lock
the frame to an immovable object together with the wheels when you leave
it outside. Anti-theft protection!
NOTE!
I
To be on the safe side you can replace the quick-releases by special locks.
They can only be opened and closed with a special, coded key or an Allen
key. If you are in doubt or if you have any questions, contact your BERGAMONT
dealer.
THRU AXLES ON THE BERGAMONT BIKE
Thru axles (a+b) are mounted when BERGAMONT bikes have to withstand
high stress. On forks and in particular together with disc brakes they make for
extreme stiffness.
Safe mounting of wheels with thru axles
There is a wide range of thru-axle systems available now. Some systems are
tightened with quick-releases. Other systems may require special tools for as-
sembly or disassembly.
Read therefore in any case the chapter “Using quick-releases and thru axles” in
your detailed BERGAMONT owner’s manual and in the manuals of the suspen-
sion fork, thru axle and wheel manufacturers on the enclosed BERGAMONT info
CD before removing the wheel or doing any maintenance work and mounting a
fork/wheel combination with thru-axle system. There the systems are described
in detail.
If you are in doubt or if you have any questions, contact your BERGAMONT
dealer.
DANGER!
G
Improperly mounted wheels may throw you off your bike or result in seri-
ous accidents! Ask your BERGAMONT dealer to show you how to handle
the thru-axle type you have.
CAUTION!
A
Check the fixing after the first one to two hours of use and subsequently
every 20 hours of use.
CAUTION!
A
To mount the axle only use the tools recommended by the manufacturer.
Use a torque wrench whenever possible. Tighten carefully by approaching
the prescribed maximum torque value in small steps (0.5 Nm increments) and
check in between the proper fit of the component. Never exceed the maximum
torque value indicated by the manufacturer! A too tight fixing of the axle can
damage the axle or the fork leg.
ADJUSTING THE BERGAMONT BIKE TO THE RIDER
Your body height and proportions are decisive for the frame size of your
BERGAMONT bike. Make particularly sure there is enough space between your
crotch and the top tube so that you do not hurt yourself, if you have to get off
your bike quickly (c).
By choosing a specific type of bicycle you roughly determine the posture you
will be riding in (d+e). However, some components of your BERGAMONT bike
are especially designed so that you can adjust them to your body proportions
up to a certain degree. This includes the seat post, the handlebars and the stem
as well as the brake grips or brake levers/shifters.
As all works require know-how, experience, suitable tools and skills, you should
restrict yourself to adjusting your seating position. Contact your BERGAMONT
dealer, if you are not happy with your seating position or if you want some-
thing changed. They will see to your wishes the next time you leave your
BERGAMONT bike at the workshop, e.g. for the first inspection.
After any adjustment/assembly work, be sure to make a short functional check
as described in the chapter “Tests before every ride” and do a test ride on your
BERGAMONT bike in an area free of traffic (f).
