Warning! Using your bicycle for any other than its design purpose

may lead to severe injuries, and even death. If you have purchased a children's bicycle, make sure you will teach your child to use the bicycle correctly, and more particularly the brakes.

Warning! Except in some countries such as the United Kingdom,

the brake lever on the left-hand side of the handlebar works the front brake and the brake lever on the right-hand side of the handlebar works the rear brake. Before using your bicycle for the first time, check which brake lever works upon which brake.

Caution! Like all mechanical items, a bicycle supports high stresses

and wears out. The different constructional materials and components may react differently to wear and tear or to fatigue. After reaching its anticipated service life, any component may break suddenly, causing serious injuries to the cyclist. Cracks, scratches and discolorations in highly stressed areas are signs that a component has exceeded its useful life and need replacement

DIRECTIONS FOR USE

Before using your bicycle, check the brakes for proper operation and verify that the wheel quick release system or fixing nuts are tightly secured. Also make sure the tyre pressure is adequate and that the seat pillar, seat and handlebar stem are correctly adjusted and tight. Check that all fasteners in general are tight. For further information, refer to the sections concerned.

• Periodic maintenance

Your bicycle requires regular maintenance and minimum overhauls. The frequency of these will depend on the bicycle type (roadster, touring, MTB) as well as on the frequency and conditions of use.

IMPORTANT WARNING: We strongly recommend that

maintenance and overhauls be carried out by your dealer. Above frequencies are given for guidance only and apply to normal conditions of use. Mountain bike maintenance intervals should be shorter, in consideration of their intensive use.

• Preparing the bicycle for riding

Setting of the seat height

This value is calculated by multiplying the inside leg, as measured with the shoeware to be worn when riding the bicycle, by coefficient 0.885. The product is the distance from the centre of the saddle to the centreline of the bottom bracket axle screw. To adjust the seat height, release the seat pin, move the seat pillar as necessary, retighten the seat pin.

IMPORTANT WARNING: For your safety, the reference mark on the

seat pillar (horizontal mark indicating the maximum permissible adjustment of the seat) should never be above the top edge of the seat tube.

Setting of the handlebar height

For a comfortable position on the bicycle, that would induce neither neck pain nor backache, we recommend the use of the settings tabulated below.

Seat height	Offset with handlebar height
65/68 cm	5/6 cm
69/72 cm	6/7 cm
73/76 cm	7/8 cm
77/79 cm	8/9 cm
80/82 cm	9/10 cm

IMPORTANT WARNING: For traditional stems, the manufacturer-

specified height shall by no means be exceeded.

• Suspension setting (SAG)

General definition of SAG: In the simple case of a helical spring, SAG is the ratio of the spring deformation under a given load to the no-load spring length.

For the case under consideration (suspension bicycles), SAG is the ratio of:

1. The vertical movement of the bottom bracket axle due to the rider weight in rider's usual position on the bicycle, with the fork, frame and shock absorber in any position;

2. The maximum vertical movement of the bottom bracket axle that the fork, frame and shock absorber permit.

For your guidance, correct SAG values range from 15% to 35%.

To determine the correct SAG value, refer to the specific suspension and frame shock absorber instructions supplied with the bicycle.

• Tightening torques for bolted joints

On assembling any parts, always use the appropriate wrenches and no more than the required hand driving force. Bolts and/or nuts must be placed if their threads are found damaged when screwing them on or e following table shows the tightening torques for various screw sizes, otherwise expressly stated.

• Testing the braking distance

Before getting on your bike, check both front and rear brakes for perfect condition. Any cable worn out must be replaced immediately.

It is recommended that both brakes are applied simultaneously, in order to prevent falls, above all on humid roadways.

The braking distance on a wet surface is approximately 40% longer than on a dry one.

WARNING! The use of streamlining extensions or accessories

attached to the handlebars may negatively affect the response time on braking or turning.

- Cleaning

To keep your bicycle in good conditions, take the following elementary precautions:

o Remove dust and mud with a wet sponge and a soft detergent. Do not use solvents or very alkaline detergents when cleaning painted parts.

o Plastic components should be cleaned only with soapy water.

GB

o Tyres may be cleaned with a sponge or a brush and soapy water.
o Dry up the bicycle with a cloth or chamois.
o Lubricate the chain drive, after each cleaning process.

IMPORTANT NOTE: The use of high-pressure cleaners should be

avoided. Under no circumstances shall a steam jet be used.

Adjusting the seat height: Introduce the seat pillar in the seat tube. When the seat is at the desired height, tighten the seat pin or fixing screw.

IMPORTANT NOTE: The minimum inset mark should never be, if there is to be a minimum safety length of the seat pillar in the seat

• Installing stabilisers

For perfect service, this safety device requires adequate fitting and setting.

FITTING: Various stabiliser-mounting systems are available. They must be fixed to the rear of the bicycle (to the rear hub or frame). Refer to specific instruction manual supplied with the bicycle.

SETTING: With a view to improving the bicycle stability in turns, adjust the installed stabilisers in such a way that the stabiliser wheels clear the ground by 1 cm to 2.5 cm when the bicycle is in its vertical position.

MAINTENANCE

• V-brake

Setting: While pressing the V-brakes against the rim, adjust the brake shoe by changing washer B (3mm or 6 mm) so that distance A is not less than 39 mm.

With the shoe pressed against the rim, tighten the shoe fixing nut with a 5mm Allen wrench. The distance from the shoe to the top edge of the rim should be 1 mm. Torque to 6-8 Nm.

Pull the cable to adjust the gap between the left and right shoes to 2mm. Tighten the cable fixing bolt using a 5mm Allen wrench. Torque to 6-8 Nm.

Finally adjust the balance, with the spring tension adjusting screws, in such a way that each shoe clears the rim by 1 mm.

Spring tension adjusting screw 1 mm 1 mm

- Cantilever brake

Indexing adjustment Cable adjusting barrel

- Shifting

Recommended ratios (24-speed drive) ① ② ③

For better results and in order to prevent damage to the drive system, it is recommended that you should not stress the pedals when shifting. So, avoid shifting when making an effort or riding uphill.

Do not use extreme ratios: smaller chainwheel linked to either of the two smallest sprockets; larger chainwheel linked to any of the two largest sprockets; central chainwheel linked to either the largest or the smallest sprocket. These settings may cause both a lateral distortion of the chain that will impair the proper operation of the shifter and premature wear of the drive components.

To improve performance when changing gears, follow the following recommendations:

- When going uphill, use the gear combinations shown in Figure 1.

- When going up gentle slopes, or on the flat, use the gear combinations shown in figure 2.

- When descending, use the gear combinations shown in figure 3.

- Tyre pressure

Tyre pressure shall be as indicated on the tyre outside. Pressures are stated in PSI or bar, with the maximum permissible value shown. Mind that 14 psi are equal to 1 bar and 1 bar = 1 kg/cm2. Underinflated tyres are more subject to pinch flats (or "snakebites") and may cause damage to the rim. Excessive tyre pressure may reduce the tread's ground adhesion.

Always change the tires when they reach their wear limit. A good tread is essential to a comfortable ride and safe braking.

- Replacement parts

To keep your bicycle in the best possible working condition and for your safety, it is very important to only use original spare parts.

• Replacement of wear parts

The usual wear parts are tires, inner tubes, brake pads, discs and shoes, and the rims when they are part of the braking system, Light bulbs, batteries and their installation.

Tires: Change them for identical or equivalent ones. See the mark on tside of the tire (Norm E.T.RTO).

Please note that if the outside diameter of the replacement tire is greater than the original tire size, you may touch the front wheel or mudguard with the tip of your feet when turning. As a result, you may lose control of the bicycle and be seriously injured. The same may happen if you change the crankset for longer ones.

Tubulars: For a perfect fit on the rims, tubulars must be inflated to tain minimum pressure. Check the recommended pressures in the tion manuals of the rim and tubular manufacturer. Also, mind the bly methods the manufacturer recommends.

Inner tubes: replace with an equivalent type of inner tube that is compatible with the tyre. The make can be found on the outside of the inner tube (E.T.R.T.O. Standard).

Brake shoes: Check brake shoe wear periodically. When the all grooves are invisible, change the shoes for others of same type and sions.

Brake pads and discs: Refer to the manufacturer's specific manuals ed with the bicycle.

Rims: If the rims are part of the bicycle braking system (the shoes te on the rims) they can wear excessively. Check the control marks e rims regularly, and change the rims for others of same type and sions as and when necessary.

Light bulbs and their installation: Replace with an equivalent type of bulb. Refer to the markings on the metal part of the bulb.

Batteries: Replace with an equivalent type. Refer to the markings on the outside of the battery.
