Diamondback SHEPPARD CYCLES Owner's Manual page 3

You have chosen one of the finest bicycles available. Your bicycle has been carefully manufactured with the
benefit of years of experience and fully tested to ensure the highest standards of safety and comfort for the rider.
In order to fully enjoy your bicycle, a certain amount of care and maintenance is required.
This Owner's Manual is not intended as a fully comprehensive workshop manual but it will guide you in the assembly,
safe usage and correct maintenance of your new bicycle. If you have any doubt or difficulty with any of
the tasks described, please seek the assistance of a specialist bicycle dealer.
Please read the Manual thoroughly, paying special attention to the safety warnings. This Manual will help ensure
that your new bicycle keeps working properly and safely, and continues to give you years of enjoyable cycling.
GENERAL WARNING:
Bicycling can be a hazardous activity even under the best of circumstances. Proper maintenance of your bicycle is
your responsibility as it helps reduce the risk of injury. This Manual contains many "Warnings" and "Cautions"
concerning the consequences of failure to maintain or inspect your bicycle. Many of the Warnings and Cautions
say "you may lose control and fall". Because any fall can result in serious injury or even death, we do not repeat
the warning of possible injury or death whenever the risk of falling is mentioned.
The bicycle you have purchased is a complex article. The following manual is only a guide to assist you and is not a
complete or comprehensive manual of all aspects of maintaining and repairing your bicycle. The Company has taken
all reasonable care to ensure that the manual is accurate and the information is current as at April 2009.
The Company recommends you consult a specialist bicycle dealer particularly if:
. you have any doubts or concerns as to your experience or ability to properly repair or maintain your bicycle;
. the following manual does not cover a particular matter; or
. you have any other questions or concerns.
