LIFESPAN - WEAR - INSPECTION REQUIREMENT - The lifespan of Campagnolo
components depends on many factors, such as rider size and riding conditions.
Impacts, falls, improper use or harsh use in general may compromise the structural
integrity of the components and significantly reduce their lifespan. Some components
are also subject to wear over time. Please have your bicycle regularly inspected by
a qualified mechanic for any cracks, deformation, signs of fatigue or wear (use of
penetrating fluid or other visual enhancers to locate cracks on parts is recommended).
If the inspection reveals any deformation, cracks, impact marks or stress marks,
no matter how slight, immediately replace the component; components that have
experienced excessive wear also need immediate replacement. The frequency of
inspection depends on many factors; check with your authorized Campagnolo
representative to select a schedule that is best for you.
If you weigh 82 kg/180 lbs or more, you must be especially vigilant and have your
bicycle inspected more frequently (than someone weighting less than 82 kg/180 lbs)
for any evidence of cracks, deformation, or other signs of fatigue or stress. Check with
your mechanic to discuss whether the components you selected are suitable for your
use, and to determine the frequency of inspections.
The components of the drivetrain groups Campagnolo
Campagnolo projects are designed as a single integrated system. To avoid
®
compromising the SAFETY, PERFORMANCE, DURABILITY, FUNCTION and the
WARRANTY of your bicycle, only use the parts and components supplied or
specified by Campagnolo S.r.l.. Do not substitute these components or use them
alongside products, parts or components manufactured by other companies.
