WARRANTY

Your bike was manufactured with care and
delivered to you largely preassembled. We are
obliged by law to guarantee that your bike is
free of any defects which considerably reduce
its value or fitness for use or make it worth-
less or useless. You have full warranty rights
within the first two years after purchase. We
are your contact in the event of defects and
you can get in touch with us at the stated ad-
dress.
In order for your claims to be processed
smoothly it is necessary that you present your
receipt. Therefore, please keep your receipt in
a safe place.
To ensure a long service life and good dura-
bility of your bike only use it for its intended
purpose (see chapter "Intended use"). Also
observe the permissible load specifications
and the instructions on transporting baggage
and children (see chapter "Intended use").
The manufacturers' assembly instructions
(above all the torque settings for bolts) and
the prescribed maintenance intervals must be
strictly followed, as well. Please observe the
tests and routines listed in this manual or in
any other manual enclosed with this deliv-
ery (see chapter "Service and maintenance
schedule") as well as any instructions as to
the replacement of safety-relevant compo-
nents, such as handlebars, brakes etc.

Enclosed with the delivery you will
i
find the operating instructions of
the component manufacturers. here you
will find all details about use, maintenance
and care. This manual contains multiple
references to these specific and detailed

Carbon is a composite material
i
which is used for weight-optimised
designs. Surface irregularities on carbon
components (small boils and pores) are
unavoidable for reasons inherent in the
manufacturing process. This does not
constitute a defect.
A NOTE ON WEAR
Some components of your bike are subject
to wear due to their function. The rate of
wear depends on care and maintenance as
well as on the way you use your bike (kilo-
metres travelled, rides in the rain, dirt, salt
etc.). Bikes that are often left standing in the
open may also be subject to increased wear
through weathering.
These components require regular care and
maintenance. Nevertheless, sooner or later
they will reach the end of their service life,
depending on conditions and intensity of use.
Parts that have reached their limit of wear
must be replaced. This applies to the follow-
ing parts:
chain,
cables,
grip coverings or bar tape,
chainrings,
sprockets,
pulleys,
gears cables,
tyres,
saddle covering (leather) and
brake pads.
The brake pads of rim brakes are subject to
wear due to their function. If you use your
bike for competitive cycling or in hilly terrain,
they may have to be replaced quite frequently.
Regularly check the condition of the pads and
have them replaced by a dealer.
WARRANTY ANd GUARANTEE
Brake pads with worn down wear indicators, i.e. grooves, (bottom
brake pad) must be replaced by original spare parts
have the thickness of your rims checked at the latest when you are
through your second set of brake pads
RIMS WITH RIM BRAKES
Braking causes wear not only to the brake
pads but also to the rims. Therefore, check
your rims regularly, e.g. when pumping up the
tyres. Rims with wear indicators have rings or
a gap that come into view when the rim reach-
es its limit of wear. Take note of the specifica-
tions given on the rim. Ask an expert to exam-
ine the remaining thickness of the rims at the
latest when you are through your second set
of brake pads.
Signs of deformation or fine cracks that ap-
pear in the sides of a rim when you increase
the tyre pressure are an indication that the
rim has reached the end of its service life. In
this case the rim must be replaced.
