trained and instructed in use of the bike.

This manual is provided to assist you and is not intended to be a comprehensive manual covering all
aspects of maintaining and repairing your bicycle. The bicycle you have purchased is a complex piece of
equipment that must be properly assembled and maintained in order to be ridden safely. If you have
any doubts about the assembly or your ability to properly assemble and maintain the bicycle, you must
have it assembled and maintained by a professional bicycle mechanic.

or death to the rider.

RESPONSIBILITY OF THE OWNER!

IMPORTANT: Reading and following the information and instructions in this manual are essential to

your ability to ride safely.

1. It is the responsibility of the owner or in the case of a younger rider the parents of the rider to be
certain all assembly instructions have been followed, even if the bike has been assembled by the seller
or a professional assembly company.

2. Brakes are essential to safety. Be sure they are checked and working properly before each use.
Remember that any mechanical system changes condition during use and must be maintained and
checked before each use.

3. Rules for bicycle use (bicycle laws) vary from location to location so be certain the rider knows and
understands the rules that apply to bicycle usage in your area. Wearing a helmet and using lights and
reflectors are two examples of rules which may exist and which make sense as rider safety precautions
at all times.

4. Know how to operate the bicycle and all equipment on it before first use and be certain anyone else
allowed to use the bike knows how to properly and safely use the bike as well.

5. There are many different types of bicycles and often these types are designed for different uses.
Make sure you know what type of unit you have and do not exceed its service limitations. Be sure you
check and understand the bicycle classifications set forth below, including size of the unit that is proper
for the rider to insure good control during use. Do not overload a unit with a rider that is too heavy or
too large, and do not attempt to carry extra passengers, packages or loads on the bicycle. Do not
attempt to use street bikes for off road riding.

Children’s Bikes: (Max. weight of rider= 231 lbs./105kg). These bikes are intended for use by children in
safe areas with riding surfaces that are in good condition and free of traffic. Children must always ride
within their abilities under parental supervision and should wear a safety helmet and use other safety
equipment at all times. A parent should check the bike regularly and perform required maintenance.

NOTE. Carefully read this manual and follow instructions. Your bicycle may come with additional
instruction sheets that cover features unique to your bike. Please ensure that you read and become
familiar with their contents. Always wear a CPSC approved helmet when riding your bike. Familiarize
yourself with local and state traffic and use laws. Keep all materials which come with the bike for future
reference.

Any major service or adjustments on your bike should be carried out by a competent adult or
professional bike mechanic. If you wish to make adjustments yourself, this manual contains important
tips on how to do it. CAUTION: Any adjustments you make are entirely at your own risk. Do NOT use
your bike for freestyle and stunt riding, jumping or competitive events. Even if you are riding a mountain
bike, you should know that off-road use or any similar activities can be dangerous, and you are warned
that you assume the risk for personal injury, damages or loss incurred from such use. Do not ride your
bike when any part is damaged or not working properly. If you are unsure how to carry out repairs or

maintenance on your bike, it is vital that you promptly consult a local bike mechanic for professional
assistance and support.

WARNING: As with all mechanical components, the bicycle is subjected to wear and high stresses.
Different materials and components may react to wear or stress fatigue in different ways. If the
design life of a component has been exceeded, it may suddenly fail, possibly causing injuries to the
rider. Any form of crack, scratches or change of coloring in highly stressed areas indicate that the life
of the component has been reached and should be replaced.
