CARBON – A PARTICULAR MATERIAL
Special characteristics of components made of carbon-fibre reinforced plastics,
also referred to as carbon or CRP (d), need to be taken into account. Carbon is
an extremely strong material which combines high resistance with low weight.
After overstress, however, carbon components (e), unlike metal parts, do not
necessarily show durable or visible deformation even though some of the fibres
may be damaged. It is very dangerous to continue using the carbon compo-
nent after an impact or undue stress, as it may fail without previous warning
thereby causing an accident with unforeseeable consequences. For this rea-
son we recommend that you have the component, or to be certain, the entire
BERGAMONT bike checked by your BERGAMONT dealer after every incident,
such as e.g. a crash.
Replace a damaged component (f) at once! Prevent further use by taking
appropriate measures, i.e. saw the component into pieces. Damaged carbon
frames can possibly be repaired. Contact your BERGAMONT dealer.
Carbon components must not be exposed to excessive heat. Therefore, never
have a carbon component enamelled or powder-coated. The temperatures re-
quired for enamelling or powder-coating could destroy the component. Do not
leave carbon fibre components near a source of heat or in your car during hot
or sunny weather.
In addition, carbon is sensitive to pressure. Therefore, do not mount your
BERGAMONT frame on a mounting carrier with inappropriate clamps.
Carbon components have, like all lightweight bike components, a limited service
life. For this reason, have the stem and the handlebars checked at regular inter-
vals (e.g. every three years), even if they have not experienced any undue stress,
such as an accident.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION “TESTS AFTER AN ACCIDENT” WITH
YOUR BERGAMONT PEDELEC
1. Check the rechargeable battery (a+b). Try to remove the rechargeable
battery from its mounting. If the rechargeable battery is no longer properly
in its holder or shows any damage, do not use your BERGAMONT pedelec
any longer, at least not in the assistance mode. Switch off the drive and the
rechargeable battery separately, if necessary. A damaged battery can lead
to a short-circuit resulting in a sudden failure of the BERGAMONT pedelec
assistance right at the moment when you need it.
Damage to the outer housing of the rechargeable battery can result in water
or moisture entry which can lead to short circuits or electric shocks. The
rechargeable battery may catch fire or even explode! In such a case, contact
your BERGAMONT dealer immediately.
For more information see the system instructions of your drive manufacturer
on this BERGAMONT info CD.
2. Check that all values are displayed properly and fully on the control unit (c)
or the display. Do not use your BERGAMONT pedelec, if the control unit
shows an error message or a warning. In the case of critical errors the system
switches off automatically. In the case of non-critical errors the system may
be still operable.
Do not set off on your BERGAMONT pedelec when the control unit or the
display shows a warning. In such a case, contact your BERGAMONT dealer
immediately.
For more information see the system instructions of your drive manufacturer
on this BERGAMONT info CD.
3. Let your BERGAMONT pedelec bounce on the ground from a small height.
If there is any rattling, check where it comes from. Check the bearings, the
bolts and the proper seat of the battery, if necessary.
