I General User Manual 11
7 Before the rst ride
Make sure that your bike is ready for use and is set up
for your body size.
Check the following:
Positioning and secure fastening of saddle and
handlebar
Installation and correct adjustment of the brakes
Secure fastening of wheels in ame and fork
Adjust the handlebar and stem until you nd a safe
and comfortable riding position. Instructions on how
to adjust the handlebar are provided in Chapter 9.3
"Adjusting the handlebar position".
Adjust the saddle until you nd a safe and comfort-
able riding position. Instructions on how to adjust the
saddle are provided in Chapter 9.2 "Adjusting the
seat position".
Make sure the brake levers are always within easy
reach and that you know how to operate the right/
le brake levers and where to nd them. Make a note
of which brake lever operates the ont and which the
rear wheel brake.
Modern brake systems can have a far more powerl
and dierent braking eect than those you are already
familiar with. Before setting o, familiarise yourself
with the eects of the brakes on a safe trac-ee
area.
If you are using a bike with carbon-bre rims, bear
in mind that the braking behaviour of this material is
much poorer than aluminium rims.
Make sure that the wheels are securely fastened in the
ame and forks. Check that the quick-release device
and all important fastening screws and nuts are se-
curely fastened.
Chapter 9.2.2 "Operating the quick-release device"
contains instructions on how to operate quick-release
devices safely and Chapter 30 "Technical data" con-
tains a table of the tightening torques for important
screws and nuts.
Check the tyre pressure. Information on the pre-
scribed tyre pressure appears on the tyre sidewall.
Never inate the tyres to less than the minimum or
more than the maximum specied tyre pressure. As a
rule of thumb, e.g. when on the road, you can check
the tyre pressure as follows: If you press your thumbs
into the inated tyre, there should not be much give
in the tyre even if you press hard.
Check the tyres and rims for damage, foreign bodies,
e. g. glass agments or sharp stones and deformation.
If cuts, cracks or holes are visible, do not ride o. In-
stead, take your bike to a professional bike workshop
and have it checked.
