KONA OWNER’S MANUAL
F) EXTREME, STUNT OR COMPETITION RIDING
Whether you call it Aggro, Hucking, Freeride, North Shore,
Downhill, Jumping, Stunt Riding, Racing or something else:
if you engage in this sort of extreme, aggressive riding you
may get hurt, and you voluntarily assume an increased risk
of injury or death.
Not all bicycles are designed for these types of riding,
and those that are may not be suitable for all types of
aggressive riding. Check with your Kona dealer about
the suitability of your bicycle before engaging in extreme
riding.
When riding fast down hill, you can reach speeds seen on
motorcycles, and therefore face similar hazards and risks.
Have your bicycle and equipment carefully inspected by a
qualied mechanic and be sure it is in perfect condition.
Consult with expert riders and race ofcials on conditions
and equipment advisable at the site where you plan to ride.
Wear appropriate safety gear, including an approved full
face helmet, full nger gloves, and body armor. Ultimately,
it is your responsibility to have proper equipment and to be
familiar with course conditions.
WARNING: Although many catalogs,
advertisements and articles about bicycling depict
riders engaged in extreme riding, this activity is
extremely dangerous, increases your risk of injury
or death, and increases the severity of any injury.
Remember that the action depicted is being performed
by professionals with many years of training and
experience. Know your limits and always wear a
helmet and other appropriate safety gear. Even with
state-of-the-art protective safety gear, you could be
seriously injured or killed when jumping, stunt riding,
riding downhill at speed or in competition.
WARNING: Bicycles and bicycle parts have
limitations with regard to strength and integrity, and
this type of riding can exceed those limitations or
dramatically reduce the length of their safe use.
We recommend against this type of riding because of the
increased risks; but if you choose to take the risk, at least:
• Take lessons from a competent instructor rst.
Start with easy learning exercises and slowly develop
your skills before trying more difcult or dangerous
riding
Use only designated areas for stunts, jumping, racing or
fast downhill riding
Wear a full face helmet, safety pads and other
safety gear.
Understand and recognize that the stresses imposed on
your bike by this kind of activity may break or damage
parts of the bicycle and void the warranty.
Take your bicycle to your dealer if anything breaks
or bends. Do not ride your bicycle when any part is
damaged.
If you ride downhill at speed, do stunt riding or ride in
competition, know the limits of your skill and experience.
Ultimately, avoiding injury is your responsibility.
G) CHANGING COMPONENTS OR
ADDING ACCESSORIES
There are many components and accessories available
to enhance the comfort, performance and appearance
of your bicycle. However, if you change components
or add accessories, you do so at your own risk. Kona
may not have tested that component or accessory for
compatibility, reliability or safety on your bicycle. Before
installing any component or accessory, including but
