ABOUT THIS MANUAL
This manual was written to help you get the most performance, comfort, enjoyment and safety when riding your
new bicycle. 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 cyclists.
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 whenever the risk of falling is mentioned.
SPECIAL NOTE FOR PARENTS
It is a tragic fact that many 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
approved bicycle helmet when riding.
