First; Bike Fit; Safety First - Specialized Roubaix Comp Road Manual De Instrucciones

NOTE: We strongly urge you to read this Manual in its entirety before your
first ride. At the very least, read and make sure that you understand each
point in this section, and refer to the cited sections on any issue which you
don't completely understand. Please note that not all bicycles have all of the
features described in this Manual. Ask your dealer to point out the features
of your bicycle.
1. Is your bike the right size? To check, see Section 3.A. If your bicycle is
too large or too small for you, you may lose control and fall. If your new bike
is not the right size, ask your dealer to exchange it before you ride it.
2. Is the saddle at the right height? To check, see Section 3.B. If you adjust
your saddle height, follow the Minimum Insertion instructions in Section 3.B.
3. Are saddle and seat post securely clamped? A correctly tightened
saddle will allow no saddle movement in any direction. See Section 3.B.
4. Are the stem and handlebars at the right height for you? If not, see
Section 3.C.
5. Can you comfortably operate the brakes? If not, you may be able to
adjust their angle and reach. See Section 3.D and 3.E.
6. Do you fully understand how to operate your new bicycle? If not, before
your first ride, have your dealer explain any functions or features which you
do not understand.
1. Always wear an approved helmet when riding your bike, and follow the
helmet manufacturer's instructions for fit, use and care.
2. Do you have all the other required and recommended safety
equipment? See Section 2. It's your responsibility to familiarize yourself with
the laws of the areas where you ride, and to comply with all applicable laws.
3. Do you know how to correctly secure your front and rear wheels? Check
Section 4.A.1 to make sure. Riding with an improperly secured wheel can
cause the wheel to wobble or disengage from the bicycle, and cause serious
injury or death.
4. If your bike has toeclips and straps or clipless ("step-in") pedals, make
sure you know how they work (see Section 4.E). These pedals require
special techniques and skills. Follow the pedal manufacturer's instructions
for use, adjustment and care.
5. Do you have "toe overlap"? On smaller framed bicycles your toe or
toeclip may be able to contact the front wheel when a pedal is all the way
forward and the wheel is turned. Read Section 4.E. to check whether you
have toeclip overlap.
6. Does your bike have suspension? If so, check Section 4.F.
Suspension can change the way a bicycle performs. Follow the suspension
manufacturer's instructions for use, adjustment and care.
