technical changes, or additions to the bicycle have been carried out with non-

First bike ride on the Cortes
Safe on the road
In addition to your skill on the Cortes, which will improve as you use it, it is
important that your bike is in optimum condition when you hit the road. We
recommend that you take the following aspects into account:
•Before each use, check the condition and function of the brakes, tyres,
rims and steering system.
•Bear in mind that the braking characteristics change and the braking
distance may increase if the road surface is slippery.
•Make sure that any luggage is securely fastened and cannot move.
•Ride on flat and firm surfaces and avoid deep potholes, high thresholds,
puddles of water and inclines greater than 10%.
•Ride at an appropriate speed on wet or slippery surfaces, slopes or
precipices. Avoid bumping into kerbs.
Always lock your bicycle when parking it (with a cable lock if desired).
Use the parking brake to avoid the possibility of driving off.
•he Cortes is largely made of steel, which is considered non-flammable.
The other materials used, such as plastic, rubber, etc. are not fireproof.
•When starting off on a steep slope, lean forward if necessary to prevent
the front wheel from lifting. If you are riding backwards on a slope, brake
carefully until you come to a stop.
ADVICE FROM RICHARD Make sure that the handlebars and saddle are
properly adjusted before you start cycling. This way, you can assume the
correct posture on the bike.
The time has come. Your first experience on your own Cortes! Whatever bike ride
you do, your safety comes first! If it is your first time cycling on a Huka tricycle, you
might have to get used to it. The most important tip we can give you is that you
have to relax as much as possible while cycling. To make sure everything goes as
smooth as possible, we give you some instructions.
