Before your first ride
1. If you want to use your bike on public roads, it has
to comply with legal requirements. These require-
ments may vary in each country. The fittings of your
MERIDA bike are, therefore, not necessarily com-
plete
(a)
. Ask your MERIDA dealer concerning the
laws and regulations applicable in your country or
in the country you intend to use your MERIDA bike.
Have your MERIDA bike equipped accordingly be-
fore using it on public roads.
For more information see the chapter “Legal re-
quirements for riding on public roads“.
2. Are you familiar with the brake system
(b)
? Have a
look at the bike card and check whether the brake
lever of the front brake is on the side you are used to
(right or left). If it is not, ask your MERIDA dealer to
switch the brake levers before you set off for the first
time.
Your new bike is equipped with modern brakes
which may be far more powerful than those you
were used to so far. Be sure to first practice using the
brakes on a level, non-slip surface off public roads!
Slowly approach higher brake performances and
speeds.
For more information see the chapter “The brake
system” and the instructions of the component
manufacturers on this MERIDA CD-ROM.
3. Are you familiar with the type and functioning of the
gears
(c)
? Ask your MERIDA dealer to explain you
the gear system and make yourself familiar with
your new gears in an area free of traffic, if necessary.
For more information see the chapter “The gears”
and the instructions of the component manufactur-
ers on this MERIDA CD-ROM.
4. Are saddle and handlebars properly adjusted? The
saddle should be set to a height from which you can
just reach the pedal in its lowest position with your
heel
(d)
. Check whether your toes reach to the floor
when you are sitting on the saddle. Your MERIDA
dealer will be pleased to help you, if you are not
happy with your seating position.
For more information see the chapter “Adjusting the
MERIDA bike to the rider”.
5. If your MERIDA bike is equipped with clipless or
step-in pedals
(e)
: Have you ever tried the shoes
they go with? First practice locking one shoe onto a
pedal and disengaging it while standing on the oth-
er leg. Ask your MERIDA dealer to explain you the
pedals.
For more information see the chapter “The pedals
and the shoes” and the instructions of the compo-
nent manufacturers on this MERIDA CD-ROM.
