ABOUT THIS MANUAL
It is important for you to understand your new bicycle. By reading this manual before you
go out on your first ride, you’ll know how to get better performance, comfort, and
enjoyment from your new bicycle.
It is also important that your first ride on your new bicycle is taken in a controlled
environment, away from cars, obstacles, and other distractions.
GENERAL WARNING
Bicycling can be a hazardous activity even under the best of circumstances. Proper
maintenance of your bicycle is your responsibility as it helps reduce the risk of injury. This
manual contains many “Warnings” and “Cautions” concerning the consequences of failure
to maintain or inspect your bicycle. Many of the warnings and cautions say “you may lose
control and fall.” Because any fall can result in serious injury or even death, we do not
repeat the warning of possible injury or death where ever the risk of falling is mentioned.
A SPECIAL NOTE FOR PARENTS
It is a tragic fact that most bicycle accidents involve children. As a parent or guardian, you
bear the responsibility for the activities and safety of your minor child. Among these
responsibilities are to make sure that the bicycle which your child is riding is properly fitted
to the child; that it is in good repair and safe operating condition; that you and your child
have learned, understand and obey not only the applicable local motor vehicle, bicycle, and
traffic laws, but also the common sense rules of safe and responsible bicycling. As a parent,
you should read this manual before letting your child ride the bicycle. Please make sure that
your child always wears an ANSI, ASTM, SNELL approved bicycle helmet when riding.
