COMPONENTS
Special tools and knowledge are necessary for installation and adjustment of
your bicycle. For your safety, only an authorized dealer should install, adjust, or
service the frame or the components. Observe the torque specifications on the
components, in the user manual, and/or the manufacturer's website. Make sure
to set up a maintenance schedule with your dealer to keep your bicycle safe and
performing its best. Consult your dealer if you have any questions or concerns
about proper setup and riding your bike. Stop riding immediately and consult your
dealer if you suspect any problems with your bicycle.
WARNING
Changing the components on your bicycle can compromise
the safety of your bicycle, void the warranty, and can result in
injury and/or death. Not all components or accessories have
been tested for compatibility, reliability or safety on your bicycle.
Check with your dealer before making changes to your bicycle.
FRAME
Your dealer should help you determine the correct size for
you. A bicycle fits correctly when there is adequate space as
you stand over the top tube. For most bicycles, there should
be a minimum of 1 inch of stand-over clearance. For mountain
bicycles, there should be a minimum of 2-3 inches of stand-

over clearance.
SUSPENSION
If your bike is equipped with rear and/or front suspension, ensure the suspen-
sion is setup and adjusted according to the manufacturer's recommendations.
Refer to your suspension manufacturer's website for user manuals and setup
instructions.
Suspension settings will vary depending on: rider preferences, rider weight (in-
cluding gear), rider skill, riding style, terrain and conditions, etc. Before each
ride, the rider must confirm the following to ensure safe operation of the bicycle:
suspension with an air spring has adequate air pressure and/or suspension with
a coil spring has an adequate spring rate, compression damping is adjusted,
and rebound damping is adjusted. Your dealer will be able to help you setup
your suspension for your needs. You will also find recommended suspension
setup starting points at https://www.santacruzbicycles.com/en-US/service/sus-
pension-setup.
WARNING
Failure to properly set up your suspension can cause product
malfunction and increase your chances of losing control and
crashing, which can result in serious injury and/or death. Refer
to your suspension manufacturer's instructions for all safety
instructions, warnings, set up, and proper use.
Inspect your suspension regularly for any visible damage. If oil
is leaking or you notice any damage to the surfaces or seals,
contact your dealer immediately.
