11.2 Carbon frame

WARNING Danger from falls and accidents

A frame made of carbon may suffer damage which is not visible as a result of a fall, accident or exter-

nal forces. This can lead to dangerous riding situations, falls, accidents and material damage.

• Have your frame checked by a specialist retailer authorised by GHOST.

• In the case of uncertainties or ambiguities, have your frame sent to GHOST for a check.

NOTE:

If you have any questions after falls and accidents, you can also contact a bicycle specialist. In Germany you

can obtain corresponding contact addresses from your local Chamber of Commerce and

Industry (IHK).

or will not damage other objects.

• Keep children and animals away from your parked bike.

• Please do not park your bike next to items which are easily damaged, such as cars and similar

items.
