problems. Do not attempt to ride a bicycle with wheels that are not straight or with

spokes that are loose, as it is a dangerous to your health and life. Check if the tires are

properly inﬂated (see the prints on the side walls for instructions about the optimum

pressure: usually 3.5 – 4.5 bar depending on tire size, terrain and weather conditions).

Use a proper bicycle pump with a pressure gauge to achieve the correct pressure. Check

the overall conditions of the tires, if they are damaged, torn or worn out you should re-

place them before riding. Using worn or damaged tires is dangerous. Make sure tires are

correctly inﬂated and are in good shape. Spin each wheel slowly and look for cuts in the

tread and sidewall. Replace damaged tires before riding the bicycle.

Front fork connections

Things to check before each ride: a) Check wheel axle to fork connection, b) Check brake

clamp to fork connection, c) Check headset looseness, d) Check stem to handlebar con-

nection, e) Clean fork stanchion tubes, f) Check general fork condition (take special note

of any cracks or deformations). Do not ride if any defects noticed! For information about

servicing suspension forks mounted on the bicycle it is necessary to follow manufactur-

er’s instructions closely. The user manual for the suspension forks are supplied in the box

with every bicycle. Check wheel axle to fork connection - this is critical for your safety. If

you have axle nuts they should be tightened according to the manufacturer’s speciﬁca-

tion. If you have a quick release make sure that it is set to the CLOSED position, and that

there is a signiﬁcant amount of resistance when pushing the lever and that it is set to the

CLOSED position (FIG.1). The amount of resistance can be adjusted by turning the knob

on the opposite side of the lever when the lever is in the open position. Never leave the

quick release loose, and do not try to turn it like a screw.
