For more information see the chapters “Adjusting the SCOTT bike to the rider
and “Headset” in this SCOTT short manual as well as in your detailed SCOTT
owner’s manual and in the manuals of the component manufacturers on the
enclosed SCOTT info CD.
3. Check whether the chain still runs on the chainrings and the sprockets. If your
SCOTT bike fell over to the chain side, verify the proper functioning of the gears.
Ask somebody to lift your SCOTT bike by the saddle and carefully shift through
all the gears. Pay particular attention when switching to the small gears, making
sure the rear derailleur does not get too close to the spokes as the chain climbs
onto the larger sprockets (c+d).
If the rear derailleur or the drop-outs/derailleur hanger is bent, the rear derailleur
may collide with the spokes. This in turn can destroy the rear derailleur, the rear
wheel or the frame.
Check the function of the front derailleur, as a displaced front derailleur can throw
off the chain, thus interrupting the drive of your SCOTT bike. Risk of falling!
For more information see the chapter “Gears” in your detailed SCOTT owner’s
manual and in the manuals of the component manufacturers on the enclosed
SCOTT info CD.
4. Make sure the saddle is not out of alignment using the top tube (e) or the bot-
tom bracket shell as a reference. If necessary, open the clamping, realign the
saddle and retighten the clamping.
For more information see the chapters “Adjusting the SCOTT bike to the rider
and “Using quick-releases and thru axles” in this SCOTT short manual as well as
in your detailed SCOTT owner’s manual and in the manuals of the component
manufacturers on the enclosed SCOTT info CD.
5. Let your SCOTT bike bounce on the ground from a small height (f). If there is
any rattling, see where it comes from. Check the bearings and bolted connec-
tions, if necessary. Tighten them slightly, if necessary.
6. Finally, take a good look at the whole SCOTT bike to detect any deformations,
colour changes or cracks. Ride back very carefully by taking the shortest route
possible.
WARNING: Ensure that the braking surfaces and brake pads are absolutely
free of wax, grease and oil. Risk of accident!
CAUTION: When replacing any parts, be sure to only use parts that bear
the appropriate mark and, to be on the safe side, original spare parts. Your
SCOTT dealer will be pleased to help you.
CAUTION: Read in any case the chapter “Brakes” in your detailed SCOTT
owner’s manual as well as in the manuals of the brake manufacturer on the
enclosed SCOTT info CD before you start to readjust or to service the brake or
before doing any work whatsoever.
TESTS AFTER AN ACCIDENT
1. Check whether the wheels are still firmly fixed in the drop-outs (a) and whether
the rims are still centred with respect to the frame or fork. Spin the wheels and
observe the gap either between brake pads and rim sides or between frame
and tyre. If you have rim brakes and the width of the gap changes markedly and
you have no way to true the rim where you are, you need to open the brakes
a little with the special device so that the rim can run between the brake pads
without touching them. Please note that in this case the brakes may not act as
powerfully as you are used to.
No matter whether you have rim or disc brakes, have the wheels trued by your
SCOTT dealer immediately after you are back home. For more information see
the chapters “Brakes”, “Using quick-releases and thru axles” and “Wheels and
tyres” in this SCOTT short manuals as well as in your detailed SCOTT owner’s
manual and in the manuals of the component manufacturers on the enclosed
SCOTT info CD.
2. Check that handlebars and stem are neither turned nor bent nor broken and
that they are level and upright. Check whether the stem is firmly fixed in the fork
by trying to turn the handlebars relative to the front wheel. Briefly lean on the
brake levers to make sure the handlebars are firmly fixed in the stem.
Realign the components, if necessary, and gently tighten the bolts to ensure a
reliable clamping of the components (b). The maximum torque values are print-
ed directly on the components or specified in the manuals of the component
manufacturers on the enclosed SCOTT info CD.
