DANGER!
G
Servicing and repairs are jobs best left to your BERGAMONT dealer. If you
have your bike serviced by anyone else than an expert, you run the risk that
parts of your BERGAMONT bike will fail. Risk of accident! When working on
your BERGAMONT bike; restrict yourself to jobs for which you have the suitable
tools, e.g. a torque wrench (a), and the necessary knowledge.
CAUTION!
A
If a component needs to be replaced, make it a rule to only use original
spare parts. Wearing parts of other manufacturers, e.g. brake pads or tyres
that are not of identical dimension, may render your BERGAMONT bike unsafe.
Risk of accident!
CLEANING AND CARING FOR YOUR BERGAMONT BIKE
Dried sweat, dirt and salt from riding during the winter or in sea air can harm
your BERGAMONT bike. You should therefore make it a habit of cleaning all
components at regular intervals.
Avoid cleaning your bike with a high-pressure cleaner. The high-pressure jet is
likely to enter bearings by passing through the seals and dilute the lubricants
hereby increasing the friction. This destroys and impairs the functioning of
the bearing races in the long term. High-pressure jets are also likely to remove
frame and rim stickers.
A much more gentle way of cleaning your bike is with a low-pressure water jet
or a bucket of water and a sponge or a large brush. Cleaning your bike by hand
has another positive side-effect: you may discover defects in the paint as well as
worn or defective components at an early stage.
After cleaning and drying you should check the chain for wear (b) and apply lu-
bricant agent (c) (see the chapter “Bicycle chain” in your detailed BERGAMONT
owner’s manual as well as in the manuals of the component manufacturers on
the enclosed BERGAMONT info CD).
Wipe dry the sliding surfaces of the suspension fork (d) and the rear shock and
apply special spray approved by the manufacturer.
Apply a coat of standard hard wax on painted, metal and carbon surfaces
(except from brake surfaces and brake discs). Polish the waxed surfaces after
drying to give them a nice shine.
DANGER!
G
Keep cleaning agents and chain oil clear of the brake pads, brake discs and
rim sides (braking surfaces). Otherwise the brake could fail. Never grease or
lubricate the clamping areas of a frame made of carbon, e.g. handlebars, stem,
seat post and seat tube. Once greased, carbon components may never again
ensure reliable clamping!
DANGER!
G
While cleaning (e), watch out for cracks, scratches (f), dents as well as
deformed or discoloured material. Have defective components replaced
immediately and touch up paint defects. If you are in doubt or if you have any
questions, contact your BERGAMONT dealer.
CAUTION!
A
Only use petroleum-based solvents for cleaning tough oil or grease stains
from paint and carbon surfaces. Never use degreasing agents containing
acetone, methyl chloride or the like, or solvent-containing, non-neutral or chem-
ical cleaning agents that could attack the surface!
CAUTION!
A
Do not clean your BERGAMONT bike with a high-pressure cleaner or a
water jet and if you do, be sure to keep it at a distance. Do not aim at the
bearings.
