We are not liable for property damage or personal
injury resulting from the operation of the mountain
bike itself, in particular, in the event of failures due to
inadequate maintenance and care.
The abilities of professional mountain bikers may
seem easy to imitate to laypersons. In reality, there
are often years of training and constant practice
behind their skills. For your safety, always wear pro-
tective clothing appropriate for the discipline.
We recommend always wearing a protective helmet.
Things always seem to happen when you least
expect them.

Only regular inspections, care and maintenance,
immediate professional repair, and the replacement
of damaged components can guarantee the safe
function of your bike over the long term. If you do
not possess the necessary specialist knowledge or
tools to carry out the required work yourself, a trip
to the workshop is essential. For guidance, we have
prepared some maintenance information:
We recommend an initial inspection, depending on
how hard you ride, after 5 to 15 hours of operation.
This includes:
• Checking the torques on all screws and nuts and
tightening them if necessary.
• Changing the length of the shifter cable by
correcting the tension via adjustment (barrel
adjuster on the shifter).
• Checking the spoke tension on the wheels and that
the wheels are true and adjusting spoke tension if
necessary.
• Checking the headset preload and gently readjust
if necessary.

tires. Replacing worn or "washed out" tires.
