Your Bicycle - Owner’s Responsibility
In this manual we describe and illustrate how to ride safely and keep your bicycle in a safe, trouble
free operating condition.
Owner’s Responsibility and Important Points
Your new Bicycle and this manual comply with the safety requirements laid down in the new ISO
4210:2014 - Safety requirements for Bicycles and ISO 8098 - Safety Standard for young Children’s
bicycles.The new standards bring together the older separate standards: (EN 14781, 14766, 14765,
14764).
It comprises of 9 parts covering: Terms & Denitions, Requirements, Common Test Methods, Braking
Test Methods, Steering Test Methods, Frame & Fork Test Methods, Wheel & Rim Test Methods,
Pedals & Crank Test Methods and Saddles & Seatpost Test Methods.
These 9 parts share a common test method to ensure the quality and safety of all cycles supplied,
the test methods for each intended cycle use may be dierent such as the mass, height, load or cycle
duration, ISO 4210 applies to Road, Mountain, City & Trekking and young adult cycles, but does not
apply to specialised types of cycles such as Tandems, Stunt or competition bikes.
The second part of the new standard is ISO 8098, this species the safety and performance
requirements and test methods for the design, assembly and testing of sub-assemblies and fully
assembled bicycles for young children - this standard is dened by saddle height. This standard is
dened by bikes with a maximum saddle height of more than 435mm and less than 635mm so in
relation to our MV Sports bikes this will apply to bikes of 12”,14”,16” and some 18” wheel bicycles,
it is not applicable to special types of bicycles such as BMX bicycles. Your new bicycle will have the
relevant standard where applicable visibly labeled either on the outer box or main frame of the cycle
near the cranks.

Safe Cycling and Safety Tips
Before you ride your bicycle at any time make sure it is in a safe operating condition. Particularly check that
your:
• Bicycle’s nuts, bolts and parts are tight and not worn or damaged.
• Riding position is comfortable (refer to pages 7-8).
• Brakes are operating eectively.
• Steering is free with no excessive play.
• Wheels run true and hub bearings are correctly adjusted.
• Wheels are properly secured and locked to frame/fork.
• Tyres are in good condition and inated to correct pressure.
• Pedals are securely tightened to pedal cranks.
• Gears are correctly adjusted.
• All reectors are in position.
After you have made any adjustments to your bicycle, check that all nuts and bolts are securely tightened and
cables are free from kinks and xed securely to the bicycle frame.
Every six months (more frequently if high mileage or subject to heavy use) your bicycle should be
professionally checked to ensure that it is in correct and safe working order.
To Ensure Your Safety
• Do not ride on same side of road as oncoming trac.
• Do not ride two side by side.
• Do not carry a passenger unless cycle is equipped to do so.
• Do not swerve in and out of trac.
• Do not hang items over the handlebars to impede steering or catch in
the front wheel.
• Do not hold on to another vehicle.
• Do not ride too close behind another vehicle.
• Always wear a helmet
CAUTION: Wet Weather Riding. No brakes work as well under wet or icy conditions as they do under dry
conditions. In wet weather special precautions must be taken to assure safe stopping. Ride slower than normal
and apply your brakes well in advance of anticipated stops.
CAUTION: Night Riding. We recommend you minimise the time you ride after dark. If you should have to be
out on your bicycle at night you must comply with the law, use a headlight (white) and a tail-light (red) on your
bicycle in addition to the all-around reectors that are tted. For added safety wear light coloured clothing with
reective stripes. Check that the bicycle reectors are rmly secured in their correct position, clean and not
obscured. Damaged reectors must be replaced immediately.
Riding Position
It is important that you and your bicycle are tted to each other, not only for comfort and riding ease but for
control and safety. Normally your Dealer will custom t your bicycle to you but the following few pages should
help you to nd your most comfortable, safe and ecient position.

Setting Up Your Bike
Seat Adjustment
Loosen the nut on the seat-post clamp enough to allow the saddle to move backwards or forwards. The seat
can then be aligned and the angle can also be adjusted. It is recommended that the seat be parallel to the
ground. To adjust the seat up and down, loosen the binder-bolt on the seat tube, position the seat and retighten the binder-bolt.
CAUTION: Insert the seat-post to a point above the insertion mark. The MINIMUM INSERTION MARK should
not be visible. Securely tighten the seat-post binder bolt by using an Allen key or a 13 mm spanner. Test by
grasping the seat and attempting to turn. Keep tightening until the seat will no longer turn. Refer to table of
recommended torque values on page 19.
Seat posts dier according
to saddle types and
accordingly the procedure
for tting varies. If in
doubt consult your dealer.
