VALVES
There is one valve type in general use on SCOTT toy bicycles:
Schrader or American valve (a): This is an adapted car tyre valve.
All valve types come with a plastic cap to protect them from dirt.
The Schrader valve can be inflated with a suitable pump directly after removing
the protective cap.
Tyres with Schrader valves can conveniently be inflated at car filling stations
with a compressed air dispenser. A compressed air dispenser must be used very
carefully as you may otherwise overinflate the tyre and make it burst. To let out
air, press the needle in the centre of the Schrader valve.
It can be hard to inflate tyres to the necessary pressure by using hand pumps. It
is much easier with a track pump equipped with a pressure gauge (b).
DANGER!
G
Instruct your child to always ride his/her bicycle with the prescribed tyre
pressure and check the pressure at least once a week.
DANGER!
G
Replace tyres with a worn tread or with brittle or frayed sides. Dampness
and dirt penetrating the tyre can cause damage to its inner structure. The
tube might burst. Risk of an accident!
DANGER!
G
Treat your tyres with care. Never inflate your tyres beyond the maximum
permissible pressure (c), otherwise they might burst or come off the rim
during the ride. Risk of an accident!
DANGER!
G
If you mount a tyre of another size than the standard one, it may be that
the tyre will rub against the mudguard, the brakes or other components
and sustain damage. This can even lock up the SCOTT toy bicycle. When buying
tyres, ask your SCOTT dealer for advice.
NOTE!
I
Your SCOTT dealer has adapters for all valve types. The respective adapter
allows you to inflate tyres with Dunlop valve at the car filling station.
RIM TRUENESS AND SPOKE TENSION
For the true running of the wheel (d) of the SCOTT toy bicycle it is imperative
that the tension exerted by the spokes is distributed evenly around the rim (e).
If the tension of a single spoke changes, e.g. as a result of riding fast over a kerb
or of a loose nipple, the tensile forces acting on the rim become unbalanced and
the wheel will no longer run true. The functioning of the SCOTT toy bicycle may
even be impaired before you notice the wobbling appearance of a wheel that
has gone out of true.
With rim brakes the sides of the rims also serve as braking surfaces (f). An
untrue wheel can impair your braking effect. It is therefore advisable to check
the wheels for trueness from time to time. For this purpose lift the wheel off
the ground and spin it with your hand. Watch the gap between the rim and the
brake pads. If the gap varies by more than a millimetre, you should ask a SCOTT
dealer to true up the wheel.
DANGER!
G
Do not let your child set off with untrue wheels. In the case of extreme
side-to-side wobbles, the brake pads of rim brakes can miss the rim and get
caught in the spokes! This normally instantly jams the wheel and throws your
child off the bicycle.
