1. ONLY use fasteners provided by an authorized dealer (or ones of
the same type and strength, as indicated by the markings on the
heads).
2. Over- or under-tightened fasteners may cause them to fail or
cause damage to bike parts.
3. If bolts or screws become loose, tighten them before continuing
to use your bike.
R. PNEUMATIC TIRES
WARNING
Proper inflation of the tires extends the life of the tires and makes the
bike easier to use.
1. Do not use this bike if tires are under- or over-inflated. Check
weekly for proper inflation level, as listed on the tire sidewall.
2. Low pressure in a rear tire may cause the wheel lock on that side
to slip and allow the wheel to turn when you do not expect it.
3. Low pressure in any of the tires may cause the bike to veer to
one side and result in a loss of control.
4. Over-inflated tires may burst.
If you fail to heed these warnings damage to your bike, a fall, tip-over or
loss of control may occur and cause severe injury to the rider or others.
