DANGER!
G
Be aware that the distance you need to stop your bike increases, when you
are riding with your hands on aero bars or on triathlon bars (e). The brake
levers are not always within easy reach.
DANGER!
G
During use your SCOTT bike is undergoing stress resulting from the surface
of the road and from the rider’s action. Due to these dynamic loads, the dif-
ferent parts of your bike react with wear and fatigue. Please check your SCOTT
bike regularly, i.e. according to the SCOTT service and maintenance schedule,
for wear marks, scratches, deformations, colour changes and any indication
of cracking. Components which have reached the end of their service life may
break without previous warning. Let your SCOTT dealer maintain and service
your SCOTT bike regularly, i.e. according to the SCOTT service and maintenance
schedule. In cases of doubt it is always best to replace components.
USING QUICK-RELEASES AND THRU AXLES
QUICK-RELEASES ON THE SCOTT BIKE
Most SCOTT bikes are fitted with quick-releases to ensure fast adjustments,
assembly and disassembly. Be sure to check whether all quick-releases are tight
before you set off on your SCOTT bike. Quick-releases should be handled with
greatest care, as they affect your safety directly.
Practise the proper use of quick-releases to avoid any accidents.
Quick-release retention mechanisms essentially consist of two operative ele-
ments (f):
1. The hand lever on one side of the hub which creates a clamping force via a
cam when you close it.
2. The tightening nut on the other side of the hub with which the preload on
the threaded rod (quick-release axle) is set.
With disc brakes (a) you should have a stable pressure point at once. If you
have to actuate the brake lever more than once to get a positive braking
response, have the SCOTT bike checked by your SCOTT dealer immediately.
For more information see the chapter “Brakes” and the manuals of the com-
ponent manufacturers on this SCOTT info CD.
5. Let your SCOTT bike bounce on the ground from a small height (b). If there
is any rattling, check where it comes from. Check the bearings and bolted
connections, if necessary. Tighten them slightly, if necessary.
6. If your bike has a kickstand, make sure it is fully raised before you set off. Risk
of falling!
7. Do not forget to take a high quality D- (c) or chain lock with you on your ride.
The only way to effectively protect your SCOTT bike against theft is to lock it
to an immovable object.
8. If you want to ride on public roads, make sure your SCOTT bike is equipped
according to the applicable regulations of your country (d). Riding without
lights and reflectors in dark or dim conditions is very dangerous because
you will be seen too late or not at all by other road users. A set of lights that
corresponds to the regulations is a must on public roads. Turn on the lights as
soon as dusk sets in.
For more information see the chapter “Legal requirements for riding on pub-
lic roads“.
DANGER!
G
Do not use your SCOTT bike, if it fails at one of these points! A defective
SCOTT bike can lead to serious accidents! If you are in doubt or if you have
any questions, contact your SCOTT dealer.
DANGER!
G
Improperly closed fastenings, e.g. quick-releases, can cause parts of your
SCOTT bike to come loose and result in serious accidents!
