10.1. GENERAL NOTES ABOUT THE FUTURE SHOCK ASSEMBLY

WARNING! Due to the high degree of complexity of the Future Shock, proper assembly requires a
high degree of mechanical expertise, skill, training and specialty tools. Therefore, it is essential that
the assembly, maintenance and troubleshooting be performed by an Authorized Specialized Retailer.
WARNING! The Future Shock suspension and the proprietary components that work with the Future
Shock are specific to Specialized bicycles equipped with the Future Shock. Only use originally
supplied components and hardware at all times. Use of other components or hardware will
compromise the integrity and strength of the assembly. Future Shock specific components should
only be used on Specialized bicycles designed for Future Shock, even if they fit. Failure to follow this
warning could result in serious injury or death.
The Future Shock is available in damped and undamped models, depending on the bicycle. Installation is
the same for both models. In order to successfully install the Future Shock, it is very important to follow
the order of operations as outlined in this manual. Modifying the order of assembly will result in a longer
build process.
