KONA OWNER’S MANUAL
3
1. FIRST — BEFORE YOU RIDE
NOTE: We strongly urge you to read this Manual in its
entirety before your rst ride; but at the very least,
read and make sure that you understand each point
in this section, and refer to the cited sections on
any issue which you don’t completely understand.
Please note that not all bicycles have all of the features
described in this Manual. Ask your dealer to point out
the features of your bicycle.
A) BIKE FIT
1. Is your bike the right size? To check, see Section 3.A.
If your bicycle is too large or too small for you, you may
lose control and fall. If your new bike is not the right size,
ask your dealer to exchange it before you ride it.
2. Is the saddle at the right height? To check, see Section
3.B. If you adjust your saddle height, make sure that you
follow the Minimum Insertion instructions in Section 3.B.
3. Are saddle and seatpost securely clamped? A correctly
tightened saddle will allow no saddle movement in any
direction [see Section 3.B for details].
4. Are the stem and handlebars at the right height for
you? If not, see Section 3.C on what you can do about it.
5. Can you comfortably operate the brakes? If not, you
may be able to adjust their angle and reach [see Section
3.D and 3.E for details].
6. Do you fully understand how to operate your new
bicycle? If not, before your rst ride, have your
dealer explain any functions or features which you
do not understand.
B) SAFETY FIRST!
1. Always wear an approved helmet when riding your
bike, and follow the helmet manufacturer’s instructions
for t, use and care of your helmet.
2. Do you have all the other required and recommended
safety equipment? See Section 2. It’s your responsibility
to familiarize yourself with the laws of the areas where
you ride, and to comply with all applicable laws.
3. Do you know how to correctly operate your wheel quick
releases? Check Section 4.A.1 to make sure. Riding with
an improperly adjusted wheel quick release can cause the
wheel to wobble or disengage from the bicycle, and cause
serious injury or death.
4. If your bike has toeclips and straps or clipless “step-in”
pedals, make sure you know how they work [see Section
4.E]. These pedals require special techniques and skills.
Follow the pedal manufacturer’s instructions for use,
adjustment and care.
5. Does your bike have suspension? If so, check Section
4.F. Suspension can change the way a bicycle performs.
Follow the suspension manufacturer’s instructions for use,
adjustment and care.
6. Do you have “toe overlap”? On smaller framed bicycles
your toe or toeclip may be able to contact the front wheel
when a pedal is all the way forward and the wheel is
turned [see Section 4.E.1].
