SAFETY INFORMATION
Before you use your wheels, please read each of the WARNING listed in
this section. Each one is focused on a specic safety risk which you must
understand.
WARNINGS
INTENDED USE: For bicycle use only. Using this product the wrong way is
dangerous. For Intended Use of your specic model wheel, see ‘Specications” in
this manual. For more ASTM and Intended Use information go to www.cannondale.

PERFORM THE PRE-RIDE INSPECTION BEFORE EVERY RIDE: A pre-ride inspection is important to identify and correct potential problems before you use the
wheels. See “Pre-Ride Inspection in this manual.”
COMPATIBILITY: Before using a wheelset on a bike, make sure the wheelset is compatible with the frame and fork (e.g., clearance, chain line, brake type, dropout
spacing). Conrm specications in frame manufacturer instructions for the frame.
WEIGHT LIMIT: HollowGram Wheels have a weight limit. The limit for a specic HollowGram Wheel model is found in the “Specication” section of this manual. The
weight limit is the total combined weight of the Rider, the bike and any items carried on the bike/rider.
DO NOT MAKE CHANGES OR MODIFY THE WHEELS: Wheelsets are manufactured and tested using approved components (e.g., hubs, rims, rim
tape/strip, spokes, spoke nipples, valves, and specied tire type). Changing or
substituting any of these parts can result in damage to the wheel assembly leading to an accident or voiding of applicable warranties.
YOU CAN BE SEVERELY INJURED, PARALYZED OR KILLED IN AN ACCIDENT IF YOU IGNORE THESE WARNINGS.

WARNINGS
INSPECTION & CRASH/IMPACT DAMAGE: After any crash or impact, immediately stop riding. Have the the entire wheel (rim, hub, spokes, tire, and frame) inspected by a trained professional bicycle mechanic for any damage (e.g., bending, cracks, deep scratches or scoring, missing, bent, deformed, or loose spokes). See“Wheel
Inspections” in this manual for the kinds of damage that can occur following a crash
or impact.
MAXIMUM AIR PRESSURES (Tire and Rim): Exceeding the maximum pressure of either tire or rim could lead to tire or rim failure, or both. Find the maximum air pressure marked on the rim. Find the maximum air pressure indicated on the tire sidewall marking. Do not exceed the lower maximum air pressure value. See
“Specications” for maximum rim pressure.
USE ONLY BICYCLE AIR PUMPS: Do not use gas station air hoses or other air high volume air compressors. These pumps move a large volume of air very rapidly and will raise the pressure in your tire very rapidly, which could cause the tube to explode. CAUTION: Pencil type automotive tire gauges can be inaccurate and should not be relied upon for consistent, accurate pressure readings. Instead, use a high quality dial gauge.
WHEEL INSTALLATION/REMOVAL: Follow the manufacturer instructions when installing and removing a wheel using thru-axle mechanisms. If attached incorrectly, the wheels may wobble or fall off the bicycle, or suddenly stop the wheel, which can cause serious injury or death. Be careful not to damage the disc, caliper or brake pads when re-inserting the disc into the caliper. Remember, do not activate a disc brake’s control lever unless the disc is correctly inserted in the caliper. Activating the lever without the wheel/brake rotor installed may close the caliper pads, interfering with wheel installation.
YOU CAN BE SEVERELY INJURED, PARALYZED OR KILLED IN AN ACCIDENT IF YOU IGNORE THESE WARNINGS.
