Before every ride

Your MERIDA bike has undergone numerous tests

during production and a ﬁnal check has been carried out

by your MERIDA dealer. Nevertheless, be sure to check

the following points to exclude any malfunctioning that

may be due to the transport of your MERIDA bike or to

changes a third person may have performed on your

MERIDA bike before delivery:

1. Are the quick-release levers

(a)

, thru-axles or nuts

of the front and rear wheel, the seat post and other

components properly closed?

For more information see the chapter “How to use

quick-releases and thru axles” and the instructions

of the component manufacturers on this MERIDA

CD-ROM.

2. Are the tires in good condition and do they have suf-

ﬁcient pressure

(b)

? A higher pressure gives a better

riding stability and reduces the risk of a puncture.

The minimum and maximum pressure (in bar or

PSI) is indicated on the tire side.

For more information see the chapter “The wheels

and the tires” and the instructions of the component

manufacturers on this MERIDA CD-ROM.

3. Spin the wheels to check whether the rims are true.

If you have disc brakes, watch the gap between

frame and rim or tire and, if you have rim brakes,

between brake pad and rim. Untrue rims can be an

indication of tires with ruptured sides, broken axles

or spokes.

For more information see the chapter “The wheels

and the tires” and the instructions of the component

manufacturers on this MERIDA CD-ROM.

4. Test the brakes in stationary by ﬁrmly pulling the

brake levers towards the handlebars

(c)

. The brake

pads of rim brakes must hit the rim evenly with

their entire surface without touching the tire during

braking, in open condition or in between. Make sure

you cannot pull the brake levers all the way to the

handlebars and check the hydraulic brake cables

for leaks! Check the thickness of the brake pads, as

well.

With disc brakes you should have a stable pressure

point at once. If you have to actuate the brake lever

more than once to get a positive braking response,

have the MERIDA bike checked by your MERIDA

dealer immediately.

For more information see the chapter “The brake

system” and the instructions of the component

manufacturers on this MERIDA CD-ROM.
