Usage Guidelines - ISLABIKES Rothan Owner's Manual

Usage guidelines

Your Rothan has been designed to be ridden by children away
from motorised vehicles on smooth paved or grassy areas.
Although we test our bikes beyond their intended weight and
usage, the maximum safe combined rider and luggage weight
limits are as follows:
• Rothan = 20Kg
It is not possible to make a bike that is never going to be damaged
in an accident. If your child uses their bike beyond its limitations,
there is a high risk of failure which could result in serious injury
or death. Bikes that are used competitively should be subject to
more frequent and rigorous checks. Take particular care to check
the frame tube junctions and welds as well as all the components
for damage or excessive wear. If in any doubt, please contact
our technical support team on +44 (0)1584 856 881 or email
techsupport@islabikes.co.uk. Alternatively take it to a qualified
cycle mechanic for inspection.
Rothan
Guarantee
Your Islabike comes with a 5-year guarantee on frame and forks and a 2-year
guarantee on parts. This covers faulty manufacturing, but not normal wear
and tear. This guarantee only applies to the original purchaser of the bike.
Your statutory rights are not affected by the guarantee.
Our clearance bikes have the following guarantees, these apply to the
original purchaser and are only valid within the UK.
Ex-display / Demo: 5-years frame and forks / 2-year parts
Second hand: 12-months frame and forks
As with all mechanical components, the bicycle is subject to
wear and stress. 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. Cracks, scratches or a change of colour could indicate
that the design life of the component has been reached and it
should be replaced. Extra care should be taken when
inspecting parts that are subject to high levels of stress.
Our bikes are not guaranteed for racing in sanctioned or
competitive events. The use of a bicycle in hazardous conditions
including changeable and uneven surfaces can put high,
unpredictable loads on the bicycle and its components. Lack of
rider skill and experience can further increase these loads leading
to the possibility of serious damage to the bicycle and/or injury to
the rider. If you choose to participate in these events then please
carry out more frequent and thorough maintenance and checks,
including regularly inspecting the frame, fork, stem, cranks and
handlebars for signs of damage. Discontinue use immediately if
anything untoward is spotted and contact our technical support
team on +44 (0)1584 856 881 or email techsupport@islabikes.co.uk.
