Before riding with your Rohloff SPEEDHUB 500/14 please follow the next few steps in
order to truly trust the products service.
- Let your bike be regularly checked by a specialist workshop to make sure that
it functions safely.
- When starting off, especially after a gear change, you must check the gear has
engaged properly.
- Make sure you carry out the safety checks on all the other mounted components
of your bike.
- Before a long journey or tour, a test ride must be taken. Through this process
any mounting mistakes or loss of functions can be noticed and corrected. Also
see 'Transport/Info for the tour'.
- When utilizing a bicycle equipped with a 'Gates Carbon Drive' belt transmission,
it is important to adhere to the manufacturers instructions printed within their
Owners Manual Gates: https://shop.carbondrive.net/Service/
- Cycling through deep water with a SPEEDHUB is not permitted. Do not sub-
merge the SPEEDHUB as water will penetrate the gear-unit.
- Unprotected transportation on a motor vehicle through heavy rain can also lead

penetrated the gear-unit. This will ensure any potentially penetrated moisture is
rinsed back out.
