with your dealer that both your rims, and your tires,
are designed to be set up tubeless.
2. TIRE VALVES: There are primarily two kinds of bicycle
tire valves: The Schrader Valve and the Presta Valve.
The bicycle pump you use must have the tting
appropriate to the valve stems on your bicycle.
The Schrader valve [Fig. 18a] is like the valve on
a car tire. To inate a Schrader valve tire remove
the valve cap and clamp the pump tting onto
the end of the valve stem. To let air out of a
Schrader valve, depress the pin in the end of the
valve stem with the end of a key or other appro-
priate object.
The Presta valve [Fig. 18b] has a narrower
diameter and is only found on bicycle tires.
To inate a Presta valve tube using a Presta
headed bicycle pump, remove the valve cap; unscrew
(counterclockwise) the valve stem lock nut; and push
down on the valve stem to free it up. Then push the pump
head on to the valve head, and inate. To inate a Presta
valve with a Schrader pump tting, you’ll need a Presta
adapter (available at your bike shop) which screws on
to the valve stem once you’ve freed up the valve. The
adapter ts into the Schrader pump tting. Close the
valve after ination. To let air out of a Presta valve, open
up the valve stem lock nut and depress the valve stem.
WARNING: We highly recommend that you carry
a spare inner tube when you ride your bike. Patching
a tube is an emergency repair. If you do not apply
the patch correctly or apply several patches, the
tube can fail, resulting in possible tube failure, which
could cause you to lose control and fall. Replace a
patched tube as soon as possible.
5. SERVICE
WARNING: Technological advances have made
bicycles and bicycle components more complex, and
the pace of innovation is increasing. It is impossible
for this manual to provide all the information required
to properly repair and/or maintain your bicycle.
In order to help minimize the chances of an accident and
possible injury, it is critical that you have any repair or
maintenance which is not specically described in this
manual performed by your dealer. Equally important
is that your individual maintenance requirements will
be determined by everything from your riding style to
geographic location. Consult your dealer for help in
determining your maintenance requirements.
WARNING: Many bicycle service and repair tasks
require special knowledge and tools. Do not begin any
adjustments or service on your bicycle without learn-
ing from your dealer how to properly complete them.
Improper adjustment or service may result in damage
to the bicycle or could cause an accident which can
cause serious injury or death.
If you want to learn to do major service and repair work
on your bike, you have three options:
1. Ask your dealer for copies of the manufacturer’s
installation and service instructions for the components on
your bike, or contact the component manufacturer.
2. Ask your dealer to recommend a book on bicycle repair.
3. Ask your dealer about the availability of bicycle repair
courses in your area.
Regardless of which option you select, we recommend
that you ask your dealer to check the quality of your work
the rst time you work on something and before you
ride the bike, just to make sure that you did everything
correctly. Since that will require the time of a mechanic,
