AFTER A CRASH OR AN IMPACT

Falling off your bike is part of cycling. If you have an
accident on your Orbea bicycle, be sure that you're okay
and seek medical care, if necessary. If you are uninjured,
you should check the condition of your bicycle before
continuing to ride.
INSPECT THE FRAME AND THE BICYCLE COMPONENTS
TO SEE IF THEY HAVE BEEN DAMAGED IN ANY WAY
If you detect any problem, do not continue to ride the
bicycle.
POINTS TO CHECK
Inspect the frame and the fork to identify whether either of
these components have been broken or bent. If you detect
any damage or cracks, you must stop using the bicycle
immediately. On carbon frames, look for cracks or soft
spots in the carbon. If you detect any of these symptoms,
you must stop using the bicycle immediately.
The materials used on carbon frames and
forks are rigid and strong, but if overloaded
bend, and they will break. A strong enough
impact to this material could cause damage
cause the materials to fail in the future. In the
case of any doubt about the consequences of
a fall or accident, contact your Orbea dealer
for a correct diagnosis of the materials.
Check the drivetrain and the wheels to make sure that the
components operate correctly. If you discover any damage
to the components, stop using the bicycle immediately.
Even if you do not observe any damage, pay close atten-
tion to the sound of your bicycle when you ride it again.
Damage and other problems can cause unusual noises.
If you notice any unusual noise, stop using your bicycle
immediately and contact your Orbea dealer for a correct
diagnosis of the problem.
