INTRODUCTION
Dear Pinarello customer,
In this manual, Cicli Pinarello provides recommendations for the use of your new bicycle and
instructions for its care and maintenance. Technical evolution in bicycle technologies is rapid, so
even if you consider yourself an expert cyclist you should still read this manual.
For your safety and to guarantee long life for your bike, you should read the entire manual, paying
special attention to the sections with instructions on assembling and setting up the bike (Section
5), special instructions for your first ride (Section 3) and general instructions on the proper use of
your bicycle (Section 8) and its pedal assist system (Sections 4 and 7).
The manual refers exclusively to the Pinarello Nytro Dust bicycle, meaning that the instructions
are only for this model and do not apply to any others. Remember that the explanations and
instructions cannot possibly cover every situation, since factors such as experience, manual
ability and the tools of those working on the bike will inevitably vary. This is not a bicycle assembly
manual, and it cannot fully replace the experience and knowledge of an expert mechanic. For
these reasons, for any support needed, Cicli Pinarello always recommends that you call on the
network of official Pinarello dealers and their irreplaceable professionalism and experience.
Before your first outing, familiarise yourself with the Nytro Dust by practicing in a known, safe
place. Compared to the average use of a regular muscle-powered bicycle, a pedelec allows you to
reach much higher speeds, quickly and quietly. You need to familiarise yourself with these features
before beginning a ride, and you need to be aware of how they affect the rider's relationship with
other road users.
Last but not least, note that a pedelec is a means of transport that, like all other road and off-
road means, involves important risks for the health and physical safety of the user, even more so
since it does not have the safety devices of a car - such as ABS, airbags, even simple bodywork.
You should be aware of and acknowledge the risks, and adopt all the necessary behaviours to
minimise them. Always ride your pedelec with the utmost caution, respecting other road users.
Never use the pedelec while overly tired or under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or medication.
Never carry another person. Always keep both hands on the handlebar. Always obey all local
laws of the road. When riding off-road, always respect nature by riding on recognised trails and
tracks. Wear appropriate clothing, including a helmet, eye protection and garments that make
you clearly visible.
