MECHANICAL EXPERTISE -
The majority of bicycle maintenance and repair procedures require specific skills and experience and the use of appropriate tools. Basic
mechanical skills and aptitude may not be adequate for working correctly on your bicycle. Never overestimate your technical skills. Have assembly and maintenance work
done by a specialised mechanic. This is the only way to guarantee that the work is carried out correctly.
"AN ACCIDENT"
- Please note that throughout this manual, reference is made that "an accident" could occur. Any accident could result in damage to your bicycle, its com-
ponents and, more importantly, could cause you or a bystander to sustain severe personal injury or even death.
DESIGNATED USE
- This Campagnolo
product is designed and manufactured exclusively for use on racing bicycles used on paved roads or for trekking or cyclocross purposes.
Any other uses “Off Road” of this product (e.g. tandem, cross-country, all mountain/enduro, off-road acrobatic, downhill, four-cross, freeride, free-style, or any other extreme

LIFESPAN - WEAR - INSPECTION REQUIREMENT
- The lifespan of Campagnolo
®
components depends on many factors, such as rider size and riding conditions. Impacts,
falls, improper use or harsh use in general may compromise the structural integrity of the components and significantly reduce their lifespan. Some components are also
subject to wear over time. Please have your bicycle and its components regularly inspected by a qualified mechanic for any cracks, deformation, signs of fatigue or wear (use
of penetrating fluid or other visual enhancers to locate cracks on parts is recommended). Disassembly your bicycle components and especially the pedals, is required during
these inspections.
If the inspection reveals any deformation, cracks, impact marks or stress marks, no matter how slight,
immediately
replace the component; components
that have experienced excessive wear also need
immediate
replacement. The frequency of inspection depends on many factors; check with your authorized representative
of Campagnolo S.r.l. to select a schedule that is best for you.
