Step 6 of 6
Brake pad bed-in
It is important to bed-in your new brake pads to achieve optimal
performance, increase pad longevity and reduce the likelihood of brake
fade and noise.
To safely achieve optimal results, remain seated on the bike during the
entire bed-in procedure. Accelerate the bike to a moderate speed (12mph /
20kph), then rmly apply the brakes until you are at walking speed. Repeat
approximately twenty times. Next, accelerate the bike to a faster speed
(20mph/30kpm), then rmly apply the brakes until you are at a walking
speed. Repeat approximately ten times.
Important: do not lock up the wheels at any point during the bed-in
procedure. Allow the brakes to cool prior to any additional riding. If you
require further information about your brakes, contact our technical support
team on +44 (0)1584 856 881 or email techsupport@islabikes.co.uk.
Step 5 of 6

Avoid riding by any busy streets or highways.
Always observe national legal requirements if riding on public
roads. If you are cycling in any other countries or in the EU, please
check national guidelines.
Tumbles are an inevitable part of riding a bike and sometimes the
bike can get damaged. It is very important that a bike is inspected if
an accident occurs. Here are some things to look out for:
1. Handlebar ends becoming exposed from repeated contact with
the ground or heavy fall. Never let a child ride a bike with an
unplugged handlebar end. You can buy replacement handlebar
grips on our website www.islabikes.co.uk or call
+44 (0)1584 856 881.
Safety rst
Before you head off please read our advice for safe cycling. If you are
the responsible adult, parent or guardian we recommend the following
precautions.
Ensure that a helmet is adjusted correctly in accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions.
Ensure your child is wearing sturdy footwear and nothing can
become entangled in the pedal or drivetrain.
Ensure that your child familiarises themselves with their new
bicycle in a safe environment.
We pride ourselves on light action brakes. Check your child can
come to a stop safely using the brakes. Walk beside them and
assist them in pulling the brake lever to allow them to feel its
responsiveness.
Your Islabike is set up so that the right hand brake lever operates
the front brake. Where the destination country drive on the right
(with the exception of our balance bike) the right hand brake lever
will operate the rear brake.
Be aware braking performance and grip will be drastically reduced
in wet conditions.
Creig 24 / Creig 26 E-mail: techsupport@islabikes.co.uk Telephone: +44 (0)1584 856881
Guarantee
Your Islabike comes with a 5-year guarantee on frame and forks and a 2-year
guarantee on parts. This covers faulty manufacturing but not normal wear and
tear. This guarantee only applies to the original purchaser of the bike.
Your statutory rights are not affected by the guarantee.
Ex-display / Demo: 5-years frame and forks / 2-year parts
Second hand: 12-months frame and forks
As with all mechanical components, the bicycle is subject to
wear and stress. Materials and components may react to wear
or stress fatigue in different ways. If the design life of a component
has been exceeded it may suddenly fail, possibly causing injuries
to the rider. Cracks, scratches or a change of colour could indicate
that the design life of the component has been reached and it
should be replaced. Extra care should be taken when inspecting
parts that are subject to high levels of stress.
Our bikes are not guaranteed for racing in sanctioned or
competitive events. The use of a bicycle in hazardous conditions
including changeable and uneven surfaces can put high,
unpredictable loads on the bicycle and its components. Lack of
rider skill and experience can further increase these loads leading
to the possibility of serious damage to the bicycle and/or injury to
the rider. If you choose to participate in these events then please
carry out more frequent and thorough maintenance and checks,
including regularly inspecting the frame, fork, stem, cranks and
handlebars for signs of damage. Discontinue use immediately if
anything untoward is spotted and contact our technical support
team on +44 (0)1584 856 881 or email
techsupport@islabikes.co.uk.
User guidelines
Your Creig has been designed to be ridden on rough trails, rough
unpaved roads and rough terrain that require technical skill. Jumps
and drops are intended to be less than 61cm (24inches). The
maximum safe combined rider and luggage weight limits are as
follows:
•Creig24 =55Kg
•Creig26 =65Kg
It is not possible to make a bike that is never going to be damaged
in an accident. If your child uses their bike beyond its limitations,
there is a high risk of failure which could result in serious injury
or death. Bikes that are used competitively should be subject to
more frequent and rigorous checks. Take particular care to check
the frame tube junctions and welds as well as all the components
for damage or excessive wear. If in any doubt, please contact our
technical support team on +44 (0)1584 856 881 or email
[email protected].Ortakeittoaqualiedcycle
mechanic for inspection.
Please note your bike is not intended for the following types of riding:
• Dirt jumping • Downhill
• BMX • Slalom
• Four-cross

Disc brakes
Considered one of the most important safety features of your Islabike. It is
a good habit to check the brakes on a regular basis. This should be done
depending on the type, frequency or duration of riding. If your bike has not
been used for a period of time we recommend a quick check before riding.
Brake operation – Pull on one brake at a time and look at the brake pads.
Check to see if they are touching the discs evenly when applied. If the
pads are not contacting the discs correctly, they are uneven, rubbing or feel
spongy to apply please contact our technical support team on +44 (0)1584
Brake pad wear and replacement – Brake pads do not last forever.
Eventually they will need replacing. This will depend on the type, frequency
and duration of riding. Brake pads must be replaced if the total thickness of
the backing plate and pad friction material is less than 3mm.
Riding with backing plate and pad friction material less than 3mm
can result in reduced braking performance, crash, and/or death.
Pads tted as standard are organic compound. We recommend
replacing with the same compound to maintain performance.
Brake uid and replacement – The brakes tted to your bike contain
DOT 4 hydraulic uid. Your uid will need replacing annually to maintain
performance. Always seek professional advice – specialist tools are
required for this maintenance.
Do not allow brake uid to contact skin or eyes. If uid comes into
contact with skin or eyes seek dilute with plenty water and seek
medical advice.
Maintenance
Keeping your bike clean and maintained comes with many benets. Not
only will your Islabike perform better but it will be safer, last longer and look
great. To do this we have listed some regular checks to help you along the
way. Of course, if you are unsure of anything we strongly recommend you
seek professional advice or contact our technical support team on +44
Firstly, moving parts on your bicycle will need lubricating from time to
time. Weather conditions are generally the biggest factor that determine
frequency of maintenance and lubrication. However, it is also heavily
dependent on the frequency, type and duration of riding.
Component Lubricant Frequency
Chain Oil Weekly or after washing / rain
Rear derailleur Oil Weekly or after washing / rain
Wheel bearings Grease 6 months
Headset n/a Sealed bearings
Pedals n/a Sealed bearings
Suspension fork Oil 12 months - service
Brake uid DOT 4 12 months - service

Tyres and Tubes
Tyre wear - Regularly check tyres for general wear and tear. Overtime
your tyres will become more worn and can become more susceptible
to punctures.
Tyre pressure - Regularly check your Islabike tyre pressure as they slowly
go down over time. To check, simply push your thumb hard onto the tyre or
use a pressure gauge tted to most quality bicycle track pumps. If you can
touch the rim this probably needs some more air.
You should not exceed the maximum tyre pressure printed on the
sidewall of the tyre. We recommend approx. 70% of the maximum
tyre pressure illustrated on your tyre. To inate presta valves you
must rst open the valve by unscrewing and tapping the valve end
to relieve it if stuck. Inate to correct pressure and then carefully
re-tighten to close the valve.
Use our guide to inate your tyres, http://www.islabikes.co.uk/info-hub/

Wheels
Rim trueness - Depending on the type of riding your child does, your
Islabike wheels may become untrue or damaged when riding. This means
they will not spin straight and will wobble. To check this please see step 3
Brakes. If for any reason they are untrue our wheels can be easily repaired.
Please contact our technical support team on
+44 (0)1584 856 881 or email techsupport@islabikes.co.uk.
Hubs - Your hubs are tted with cup and cone bearings. Although they
are sealed water and grit can enter your hubs and cause premature
wear. To prolong the life and keep them running smooth and efcient. We
recommend annual maintenance and re-greasing of hub bearings.
