For this reason we recommend that you have the component, or to be certain, the
entire BERGAMONT bike (c) checked by your BERGAMONT dealer after every
incident, such as e.g. a fall.
Damaged components must be replaced 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 required 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 (d).
Carbon components have, like all lightweight bike components, a limited service life.
For this reason, have the stem and the handlebars checked at regular intervals (e.g.
every three years), even if they have not experienced any undue stress, such as an
accident.
When you intend to transport your BERGAMONT bike in the boot of your car, be sure
to protect the bike or the carbon frame and components. Blankets (e), foam tubes or
the like are a suitable padding to protect the sensitive material from damage. Do not
place any bags on your BERGAMONT bike lying in your car.
Always park your BERGAMONT bike carefully (f) and make sure it does not topple
over. Carbon frames and components may already sustain damage by simply
toppling over and thereby hitting e.g. a sharp edge.
DANGER!
G
If carbon components on your BERGAMONT bike produce any creaking or
cracking noises or show any external sign of damage, such as gouges, cracks,
dents, discolorations etc., do not use the BERGAMONT bike any longer. Contact your
BERGAMONT dealer immediately; he will check the component thoroughly.
DANGER!
G
Deformed components, especially components made of aluminium, can break
without previous warning. They must not be repaired, i.e. straightened, as this
will not reduce the imminent risk of breakage. This applies in particular to the fork,
the handlebars, the stem, the cranks, the seat post and the pedals. When in doubt,
it is always the better choice for your safety to have these parts replaced. Ask your
BERGAMONT dealer for advice.
DANGER!
G
If your BERGAMONT bike is assembled with carbon components, it is imperative
that you have it checked by your BERGAMONT dealer after an accident or similar
incident. Carbon is extremely strong and durable with very low weight, making it perfect
for the production of high-performance parts. However, one of the inherent properties
of carbon is that possible overstress may compromise the inner carbon fibre structure
without showing any visible deformation, as is the case with steel or aluminium. A
damaged component can fail without previous warning. Risk of falling!
CAUTION!
A
Make it a rule to check the functioning and in particular the limit stop of the rear
derailleur after a fall or if your BERGAMONT bike has toppled over.
CARBON – A PARTICULAR MATERIAL
Special characteristics of components made of carbon-fibre reinforced plastics,
also referred to as carbon or CRP, need to be taken into account. Carbon (a) is an
extremely strong material which combines high resistance with low weight.
After overstress, however, carbon components (b), unlike metal parts, do not neces-
sarily show durable or visible deformation even though some of the fibres may be
damaged. It is very dangerous to continue using the carbon component after an
impact or undue stress, as it may fail without previous warning thereby causing an
accident with unforeseeable consequences.
