Consumer Safety Information

Riding a bike is dangerous. Not properly maintaining or inspecting your bike is even more dangerous. It's also
dangerous not to read these instructions.
1. Before riding the bicycle, be sure the brakes are properly installed and adjusted. If the brakes don't work
properly, the rider could suffer serious and/or fatal injuries.
2. Use this fork with V-sytle or hydraulic cantilever brakes mounted to the existing mounting posts or a disc
brake mounted on the provided mounting holes only. Do not use any cantilever brake other than those
intended by the brake manufacturer to work with a hangerless brace. Do not route the front brake cable
and/or cable housing through the stem or any other mounts or cable stops. Do not use a front brake cable
leverage device mounted to the brace. Mount disc style brakes only through the mounting holes provided on
the lower tube. Do not use disc-style brakes mounted to the outer lower tube. The lower tubes were not
designed to sustain the stresses such brakes or other devices could place on them, and structural failure to the
fork may result. Structural failure could result in loss of control of the bicycle with possible serious and/or
fatal injuries.
3. Use extreme caution not to tilt the bicycle to either side when mounting the bicycle to a carrier by the fork
drop-outs (front wheel removed). The fork legs may suffer structural damage if the bicycle is tilted while the
drop-outs are in the carrier. Make sure the front wheel is fastened down with a quick release. Make sure the
rear wheel is fastened down when using ANY bike carrier that secures the fork's drop-outs. Not securing the
rear wheel can allow the bike's mass to side-load the drop-outs, causing them to break or crack. If the bicycle
tilts or falls out of its carrier, do not ride the bicycle until the fork is properly examined for possible damage.
Return the fork to your dealer for inspection or call RockShox if there is any question of possible damage
(See International Distributor List in the rear of this manual). A fork leg or drop-out failure could result in
loss of control of the bicycle with possible serious and/or fatal injuries.
4. If the fork ever loses oil or if it makes sounds of excessive topping out, stop riding the bicycle immediately
and have the fork inspected by a dealer or call RockShox. Continuing to ride with the fork in either of these
conditions could result in loss of control of the bicycle with possible serious and/or fatal injuries.
5. Always use genuine RockShox parts. Use of after-market replacement parts voids the warranty and could
cause structural failure to the fork. Structural failure could result in loss of control of the bicycle with possible
serious and/or fatal injuries.
Important: RockShox forks are designed for competitive off-road riding and do not come with
the proper reflectors for on-road use. Your dealer should install proper reflectors to meet the
Consumer Product Safety Commission's (CPSC) Requirements for Bicycle Standards if the fork
is going to be used on public roads at any time.
