IMPORTANT SERVICE NOTE! After a few rides we recommend that you check and retighten the mounting bolts on your FastTT Aero Bars. The bolts can become slightly loose after initial riding due to natural bedding in of the bolts into the carbon mounting base.
SECTION G - WARRANTY AND DISCLAIMER WARRANTY FastTT Aero Bars are lightweight carbon competition units. In the event of a fall or harsh impact, please check the bars carefully for any visible damage. Whilst carbon fibre is exceptionally strong, it does not tolerate impacts, and damage that is invisible to the naked eye can occur.
