WARNING! SX and SX Trail frames are compatible ONLY with single crown forks
that have travel of 7.1” (180mm) or less.
Use of different styled forks or forks with
longer travel may result in catastrophic failure of the frame which may result in
serious personal injury or death.

SEATPOST MINIMUM INSERTION:
To prevent
damage to the frame, it’s important to have a minimum
amount of seatpost in the seat tube.

If you cannot see the seatpost tube through the seat tube
hole, your seatpost is too far extended. If a greater saddle
height is required, replace the seatpost with a longer one.
