OWNER`S MANUAL 2016 | SHORT MANUAL

If you purchased a BERGAMONT kids’ bike (a), observe the chapter

“BERGAMONT kids’ bikes“ in your detailed BERGAMONT owner’s manual on

the enclosed BERGAMONT info CD before your child sets off on it for the first

time. There are special traffic regulations for children in some countries.

First, we would like to familiarize you with the various components of your

BERGAMONT bike. Please unfold the cover of the BERGAMONT short manual.

There you will find a BERGAMONT city/trekking (b), BERGAMONT mountain

bike and a BERGAMONT road bike (c) showing all the essential components.

Leave the page unfolded as you read so that you can easily locate the compo-

nents as they are referred to in the text.

DANGER!

For your own safety, never do any work or adjusting when servicing your

bike unless you feel absolutely sure about it. If you are in doubt or if you

have any questions, contact your BERGAMONT dealer.

DANGER!

Note: Do not hitch yourself and your bike to a car. Do not ride freehand.

Only take your feet off the pedals, if required by the condition of the road.

INTENDED USE OF YOUR BERGAMONT BIKE

Your BERGAMONT bike was designed by our engineers for a specific use. Be

sure to use your BERGAMONT bike only according to its intended use, as it may

otherwise not withstand the stress and could fail and cause an accident with

unforeseeable consequences! Any use contrary to the intended purpose will

render the warranty null and void.

NOTE!

Inform yourself at www.bergamont.com to which category your new

BERGAMONT bike belongs.

There is no bicycle type which is suitable for all purposes. Your BERGAMONT

dealer will be pleased to help you finding the right BERGAMONT bike for your

needs. He will also explain you the limits of the different types of bicycle.

Category 1: BERGAMONT road racing and triathlon bikes as well as

time trial machines

If you want to use BERGAMONT road racing (d) and triathlon bikes (e) as

well as time trial machines (f) on public roads, these bikes must be fitted with

the prescribed equipment. Observe the traffic rules when riding on public

roads. For more information see the chapter “Legal requirements for riding on

public roads” in your detailed BERGAMONT owner’s manual on the enclosed

BERGAMONT info CD.

For BERGAMONT road racing and triathlon bikes as well as time trial ma-

chines, trailers, child carriers and pannier racks are not permitted. Note that

BERGAMONT will not assume liability for the use of trailers, child carriers and

pannier racks. Such a use would render the warranty null and void.

slides, stair riding, stoppies, wheelies, tricks etc.!
