3. GENERAL NOTES ABOUT MAINTENANCE
The Stumpjumper FSR is a high performance bicycle. All regular maintenance, troubleshooting, repair and
parts replacement must be performed by an Authorized Specialized Retailer. For general information regarding
maintenance of your bicycle, please refer to the Owner’s Manual. In addition, routinely perform a mechanical safety
check before each ride, as described in the Owner’s Manual.
Great care should be taken to not damage carbon fiber or composite material. Any damage may result in a
loss of structural integrity, which may result in a catastrophic failure. This damage may or may not be visible
in inspection. Before each ride, and after any crash, you should carefully inspect your bicycle for any fraying,
gouging, scratches through the paint, chipping, bending, or any other signs of damage. Do not ride if your bicycle
shows any of these signs. After any crash, and before you ride any further, take your bicycle to an Authorized
Specialized Retailer for a complete inspection.
While riding, listen for any creaks, as a creak can be a sign of a problem with one or more components.
Periodically examine all surfaces in bright sunlight to check for any small hairline cracks or fatigue at stress
points, such as welds, seams, holes, and points of contact with other parts. If you hear any creaks, see signs of
excessive wear, discover any cracks, no matter how small, or any damage to the bicycle, immediately stop riding
the bicycle and have it inspected by your Authorized Specialized Retailer.
Lifespan and the type and frequency of maintenance depends on many factors, such as use, rider weight,
riding conditions and/or impacts. Exposure to harsh elements, especially salty air (such as riding near the
ocean or in the winter), can result in galvanic corrosion of components such as the crank spindle and bolts,
which can accelerate wear and shorten the lifespan. Dirt can also accelerate wear of surfaces and bearings.
The surfaces of the bicycle should be cleaned before each ride. The bicycle should also be maintained regularly
by an Authorized Specialized Retailer, which means it should be cleaned, inspected for signs of corrosion and/
or cracks and lubricated. If you notice any signs of corrosion or cracking on the frame or any component, the
affected item must be replaced.
Regularly clean and lubricate the drivetrain according to the drivetrain manufacturer’s instructions.
Do not use a high pressure water spray directly on the bearings. Even water from a garden hose can penetrate
bearing seals and crank interfaces, increasing bearing and crank wear. Use a clean, damp cloth and bicycle
cleaning agents for cleaning.
Do not expose the bicycle to prolonged direct sunlight or excessive heat, such as inside a car parked in the sun
or near a heat source such as a radiator.
WARNING! Failure to follow the instructions in this section may result in damage to the
components on your bicycle and will void your warranty, but, most importantly, may result in
serious personal injury or death. If your bicycle exhibits any signs of damage, do not use it and
immediately bring it to your Authorized Specialized Retailer for inspection.
WARNING! When placing the frame and/or bicycle in a repair stand, clamp the stand to the
seatpost and not the frame. Clamping the frame can cause damage to the frame that may or may
not be visible, and you may lose control and fall.
