If Your Bicycle Sustains An Impact - Diamondback MULTI-SPEED Owner's Manual

B. If Your Bicycle Sustains An Impact:
First, check yourself for injuries, and take care of them
as best you can. Seek medical help if necessary.
Next, check your bike for damage. If you see any
damage, don't ride the bike until it has been repaired.
After any crash, take your bike to your dealer for a
thorough check.

WARNING: A crash or other impact can put
extraordinary stress on bicycle components, causing
them to fatigue prematurely. Components suffering from
stress fatigue can fail suddenly and catastrophically,
causing loss of control, serious injury or death.
