Mountain biking is an exhilarating experience and is the reason why many people become addicted to mountain biking. However, it is very important that both beginners and advanced riders always ride with the safety of themselves and others in mind. In order to ride safely and to get the most out of our recommended products, we recommend that you:

1) Always read the product instructions, safety warnings and riding tips

2) Learn to ride your bike on easy terrain until you are competent

3) Get expert advice on any aspect of mountain biking you are unsure of

You should only attempt advanced mountain biking activities such as steep roll-in’s, drop-off’s, getting ‘air’, jumping, etc. when you have become an experienced and competent mountain bike rider. Always use the appropriate safety equipment for each activity, which can include helmets, gloves, knee pads and elbow pads. We strongly advise that you get expert advice from your dealer before attempting any advanced mountain biking activities

• Remember, you are responsible for the safe operation of your bike at all times
• A mountain bike rider must be fit, healthy and be over 18 years of age.
• Do not attempt to ride your mountain bike until you have completely mastered control of the bike
• Never ride your mountain bike alone. Always have someone watching out for you.
