Cervélo Owner’s Manual
C. Wet Weather Riding
WARNING: Wet weather impairs traction, braking and visibility,
both for the bicyclist and for other vehicles sharing the road.
The risk of an accident is dramatically increased in wet conditions.
Under wet conditions, the stopping power of your brakes (as well as the
brakes of other vehicles sharing the road) is dramatically reduced and
your tires don’t grip nearly as well. This makes it harder to control speed
and easier to lose control. To make sure that you can slow down and
stop safely in wet conditions, ride more slowly and apply your brakes
earlier and more gradually than you would under normal, dry conditions.
See also Section 4.C.
D. Night Riding
Riding a bicycle at night is many times more dangerous than riding during
the day. A bicyclist is very difficult for motorists and pedestrians to see.
Therefore, children should never ride at dawn, at dusk or at night. Adults
who chose to accept the greatly increased risk of riding at dawn, at dusk
or at night need to take extra care both riding and choosing specialized
equipment which helps reduce that risk. Consult your dealer about night
riding safety equipment.
WARNING: Reflectors are not a substitute for required lights.
Riding at dawn, at dusk, at night or at other times of poor visibility
without an adequate bicycle lighting system is dangerous and
may result in serious injury or death.
Bicycle reflectors are designed to pick up and reflect car lights and
street lights in a way that may help you to be seen and recognized as a
moving bicyclist.
CAUTION: Check reflectors and their mounting brackets
regularly to make sure that they are clean, straight, unbroken
and securely mounted. Have your dealer replace damaged
reflectors and straighten or tighten any that are bent or loose.
WARNING: Do not remove the installed front or rear reflectors
or reflector brackets from your bicycle. They are an integral part
of the bicycles safety system.
Removing the reflectors may reduce your visibility to others
using the roadway. Being struck by other vehicles may result
in serious injury or death.
If you choose to ride under conditions of poor visibility, check and
be sure you comply with all local laws about night riding, and take
the following strongly recommended additional precautions:
• Purchase and install battery or generator powered head and
tail lights which meet all regulatory requirements and provide
adequate visibility.
• Wear light colored, reflective clothing and accessories, such as a
reflective vest, reflective arm and leg bands, reflective stripes on
your helmet, flashing lights attached to your body and/or your
bicycle...any reflective device or light source that moves will help
you get the attention of approaching motorists, pedestrians and
other traffic.
• Make sure your clothing or anything you may be carrying on the
bicycle does not obstruct a reflector or light.
• Make sure that your bicycle is equipped with correctly positioned
and securely mounted reflectors.
