Pay particular attention when switching to the small gears, making sure the rear
derailleur does not get too close to the spokes as the chain climbs onto the larger
sprockets.
If the rear derailleur or the drop-outs/derailleur hanger is bent, the rear derailleur
may collide with the spokes. This in turn can destroy the rear derailleur, the rear
wheel or the frame. Check the function of the front derailleur, as a displaced front
derailleur can throw off the chain, thus interrupting the drive of your BERGAMONT
bike. Risk of falling!
For more information see the chapter “Gears” and the manuals of the component
manufacturers.
4. Make sure the saddle is not twisted by using the top tube (e) or the bottom bracket
shell as a reference. If necessary, open the clamping, realign the saddle and
retighten the clamping (f).
For more information see the chapters “Adjusting the BERGAMONT bike to the
rider” and “Using quick-releases” and the manuals of the component manufac-
turers.
5. Let your BERGAMONT bike bounce on the ground from a small height. If there is
any rattling, check where it comes from. Check the bearings and bolted connec-
tions, if necessary. Tighten them slightly, if necessary.
6. Finally, take a good look at the whole BERGAMONT bike to detect any deforma-
tions, colour changes or cracks.
DANGER!
g
Ride back very carefully by taking the shortest route possible, even if your
BERGAMONT bike went through this check without any problems. Do not accel-
erate or brake hard and do not ride your bike out of the saddle. If you are in doubt about
the performance of your BERGAMONT bike, have yourself picked up by car, instead of
taking any risk.
TESTS AFTER AN ACCIDENT
1. Check whether the wheels are still firmly fixed in the drop-outs (a) and whether
the rims are still centred with respect to the frame or fork. Spin the wheels and
observe the gap either between brake pads and rim sides or between frame and
tyre. If you have rim brakes and the width of the gap changes markedly and you
have no way to true the rim where you are, you need to open the brakes a little
with the special device so that the rim can run between the brake pads without
touching them. Note that in this case the brakes may not act as powerfully as you
are used to.
No matter whether you have rim or disc brakes, have the wheels trued by your
BERGAMONT dealer immediately after you are back home.
For more information see the chapters “Brakes”, “Using quick-releases” and
“Wheels and tyres” and the manuals of the component manufacturers.
2. Check that handlebars and stem are neither twisted nor bent or broken and that
they are level and aligned. Make sure the stem is firmly fixed on the fork by trying
to twist the handlebars relative to the front wheel (b). Briefly lean on the brake
levers to make sure the handlebars are firmly fixed in the stem.
Realign the components, if necessary, and gently tighten the bolts to ensure
a reliable clamping of the components (c). The maximum torque values are
printed directly on the components or specified in the manuals of the component
manufacturers.
For more information see the chapters “Adjusting the BERGAMONT bike to
the rider” and “The headset on the BERGAMONT bike” and the manuals of the
component manufacturers.
3. Check whether the chain still runs on the chainwheels and the sprockets (d). If your
BERGAMONT bike fell over to the chain side, verify the proper functioning of the
gears. Ask somebody to lift your BERGAMONT bike by the saddle and carefully
shift through all the gears.
