TESTS BEFORE EVERY RIDE
Your SCOTT bike has undergone numerous tests during production and a final
check has been carried out by your SCOTT dealer. Nevertheless, be sure to
check the following points to exclude any malfunctioning that may be due to
the transport of your SCOTT bike or to changes a third person may have per-
formed on your SCOTT bike before delivery:
1. Are the quick-release levers (c), thru axles or nuts of the front and rear wheel,
the seat post (d) and other components properly closed?
For more information see the chapter “Using quick-releases and thru axles”
and the manuals of the component manufacturers on this SCOTT info CD.
2. Are the tyres in good condition and do they have sufficient pressure (e)? The
minimum and maximum pressure (in bar or PSI) is indicated on the tyre side.
For more information see the chapter “Wheels and tyres” and the manuals of
the component manufacturers on this SCOTT info CD.
3. Spin the wheels to check whether the rims are true. If you have disc brakes,
watch the gap between frame and rim or tyre and, if you have rim brakes,
between brake pad and rim. Untrue rims can be an indication of tyres with
ruptured sides or broken spokes.
For more information see the chapter “Wheels and tyres” and the manuals of
the component manufacturers on this SCOTT info CD.
4. Test the brakes in stationary by firmly pulling the brake levers towards the
handlebars (f). The brake pads of rim brakes must hit the rim evenly with
their entire surface without touching the tyre during braking, in open condi-
tion or in between.
You should not be able to pull the lever all the way to the handlebars. If your
bike has hydraulic brakes, check the hydraulic brake cables for oil or brake
fluid leaks! Check the thickness of the brake pads, as well.
DANGER!
G
A lack of practice when using clipless pedals or too much spring tension in
the mechanism can lead to a very firm connection, from which you cannot
quickly step out! Risk of falling!
DANGER!
G
In case you had a crash with your SCOTT bike, perform at least the check
described in the chapters “Tests before every ride“ and “Tests after an
accident“. Only ride back very carefully on your SCOTT bike, if it passed the
tests without any problems. Do not accelerate or brake hard and do not ride
your bike out of the saddle. If you are in doubt, have yourself picked up by car,
instead of taking any risk. Back home you need to check your SCOTT bike thor-
oughly once again. If you are in doubt or if you have any questions, contact your
SCOTT dealer!
DANGER!
G
For SCOTT road and triathlon bikes as well as time trial machines trailers
(a), child carriers (b) and pannier racks are not permitted.
NOTE!
I
We recommend that you take out private liability insurance. Make sure that
coverage for bicycle damage is provided by your insurance. Contact your
insurance company or agency.
