When riding fast down hill, you can reach speeds achieved by
motorcycles, and therefore face similar hazards and risks. Have
your bicycle and equipment carefully inspected by a qualified
mechanic and be sure it is in perfect condition. Consult with expert
riders, area site personnel and race officials on conditions and
equipment advisable at the site where you plan to ride.
Wear appropriate safety gear, including an approved full face
helmet, full finger gloves, and body armor. Ultimately, it is your
responsibility to have proper equipment and to be familiar with
course conditions.
We recommend against this type of riding because of the
increased risks; but if you choose to take the risk, at least:
• Take lessons from a competent instructor first
• Start with easy learning exercises and slowly develop your skills
before trying more difficult or dangerous riding
• Use only designated areas for stunts, jumping, racing or fast
downhill riding
• Wear a full face helmet, safety pads and other safety gear
• Understand and recognize that the stresses imposed on your
bike by this kind of activity may break or damage parts of the
bicycle and void the warranty
• Take your bicycle to your dealer if anything breaks or bends.
Do not ride your bicycle when any part is damaged.
If you ride downhill at speed, do stunt riding or ride in competition,
know the limits of your skill and experience. Ultimately, avoiding
injury is your responsibility.

A.2.7 Changing Components or Adding Accessories
WARNING!
Failure to confirm compatibility, properly install, operate and
maintain any component or accessory can result in serious
injury or death.
Exposed springs on the saddle of any bicycle fitted with a child
seat can cause serious injury to the child.
Changing the components on your bike with other than genuine
replacement parts may compromise the safety of your bicycle
and may void the warranty. Contact customer service before
changing the components on your bike.
There are many components and accessories available to enhance
the comfort, performance and appearance of your bicycle.
However, if you change components or add accessories, you do so
at your own risk. The bicycle's manufacturer may not have tested
that component or accessory for compatibility, reliability or safety
on your bicycle.
Before installing any component or accessory, including but not
limited to a different size tire, a lighting system, a luggage rack, a
child seat, a trailer, etc., make sure that it is compatible with your
bicycle by contacting customer service. Be sure to read,
understand and follow the instructions that accompany the
products you purchase for your bicycle.
