WARNING
Back home you need to check your GRANVILLE bike thoroughly. Damaged parts must be repaired or replaced. Ask your GRANVILLE dealer for advice. For more information on carbon components see the manuals of the component manufacturer.
Deformed components, especially components made of aluminum, can break without previous warning. They must not be repaired, i.e. straightened, as this will not reduce the imminent risk of breakage. This applies in particular to the fork, the handlebars, the stem, the cranks, the seat post and the pedals. When in doubt, it is always the better choice for your safety to have these parts replaced. Ask your GRANVILLE dealer for advice.
If your GRANVILLE bike is assembled with carbon components, it is imperative that you have it checked by your GRANVILLE dealer after an accident or similar incident. Carbon is extremely strong and durable with very low weight, making it perfect for the production of high-performance parts. However, one of the inherent properties of carbon is that possible overstress may compromise the inner carbon-fibre structure without showing any visible deformation, as is the case with steel or aluminium. A damaged component can fail without previous warning. Risk of falling!
Make it a rule to check the functioning and in particular the limit stop of the rear derail- leur after a fall or if your GRANVILLE bike has toppled over.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION «TESTS AFTER AN ACCIDENT» WITH YOUR GRANVILLE PEDELEC
1. Check the rechargeable battery (a-c). Try to remove the rechargeable battery from its mounting. If the rechargeable battery is no longer properly in its holder or shows any da- mage, do not use your GRANVILLE pedelec any longer, at least not in the assistance mode. Switch off the drive and the rechargeable battery separately, if necessary. A damaged battery can lead to a short-circuit resulting in a sudden failure of the GRANVILLE pedelec assistance right at the moment when you need it.
