Never ride in deep water.

Do not use for jumps or stunts.

Avoid long distance rides when it is raining.
•
Keep both hands on the handlebar.

Be careful when riding in pools of water.
•
Thoroughly check the bicycle before each ride.
•

It is highly recommended to have your bike serviced by an authorised dealer at least once a
year or every 1000km. Check your brake cables, sheaths and brake pads. Lubricate all
transmission components, chain and derailleur with a suitable product. If the rear tire has a
puncture, remember that if you must remove it, it is attached to the motor, so make sure to
disconnect the cable. (
