TESTS BEFORE EVERY RIDE
Your BERGAMONT bike has undergone numerous tests during production and
a final check has been carried out by your BERGAMONT dealer. Nevertheless,
be sure to check the following points to exclude any malfunctioning that may
be due to the transport of your BERGAMONT bike or to changes a third person
may have performed on your BERGAMONT bike before delivery:
1. Are the quick-release levers (b), thru axles or nuts of the front and rear wheel,
the seat post and other components properly closed?
For more information see the chapter “Using quick-releases and thru axles” and
the manuals of the component manufacturers on this BERGAMONT info CD.
2. Are the tyres in good condition and do they have sufficient pressure (c)? The
minimum and maximum pressure (in bar or psi) is indicated on the tyre side.
For more information see the chapter “Wheels and tyres” and the manuals of
the component manufacturers on this BERGAMONT info CD.
3. Spin the wheels to check whether the rims are true. If you have disc brakes
(d), watch the gap between frame and rim or tyre and, if you have rim brakes,
between brake pad and rim (e). Untrue rims can be an indication of tyres with
ruptured sides or broken spokes.
For more information see the chapter “Wheels and tyres” and the manuals of
the component manufacturers on this BERGAMONT info CD.
4. Test the brakes at standstill by firmly pulling the brake levers towards the
handlebars (f). The brake pads of rim brakes must hit the rim evenly with
their entire surface without touching the tyre during braking, in open condi-
tion or in between.
You should not be able to pull the lever all the way to the handlebars. If your
bike has hydraulic brakes, check the hydraulic brake cables for oil or brake
fluid leaks. Check the thickness of the brake pads, as well.
DANGER!
H
Do not park your BERGAMONT pedelec in the blazing sun.
DANGER!
H
Remove the rechargeable battery (a) or the display before doing any work
on your pedelec (e.g. servicing, repairs, assembly, maintenance, work on
your drive etc.). Activating the drive systems unintentionally bears the risk of
injury!
DANGER!
H
The weight distribution on your BERGAMONT pedelec differs mark-
edly from the weight distribution on bikes without drive assistance. A
BERGAMONT pedelec is markedly heavier than a BERGAMONT bike without
drive assistance. For this reason parking, pushing, lifting and carrying the
BERGAMONT pedelec is more difficult. Bear this in mind when loading your
pedelec into a car and unloading it or when mounting it on a bicycle carrier
system.
DANGER!
H
Be aware that the brakes of your BERGAMONT pedelec are always more ef-
fective than the drive. If you face any problems with your drive (e.g. because
it pushes you forward in front of a bend), slow down your BERGAMONT pedelec
carefully.
DANGER!
H
For BERGAMONT pedelecs trailers, child carriers and pannier racks are not
permitted. Note that BERGAMONT will not assume liability for the use of
trailers, child carriers and pannier racks. Such a use would render the warranty
null and void. Exception: Mounting a suitable pannier rack is permitted, if the
rear stays and the drop-outs of your BERGAMONT bike have fastening devices
for pannier racks. Contact your BERGAMONT dealer before mounting.
CAUTION!
S
Please note that not all BERGAMONT pedelecs are fitted with kickstands.
Therefore, when parking your BERGAMONT pedelec, make sure it stands
safe and secure and is not at risk of toppling over or being knocked over. If your
BERGAMONT pedelec topples over, it can suffer from damage.
