Tires Front tire pressure: 2.50 bar (36.26 PSI) (rider only) - 2.6 bar (37.71 PSI) (rider and passenger). Rear tire pressure: 2.50 bar (36.26 PSI) (rider only) - 2.8 bar (40.61 PSI) (rider and passenger). Because tire pressure is affected by temperature and altitude variations, you are advised to check and adjust it whenever you are riding in areas where ample variations in temperature or altitude occur. TIRE REPAIR OR CHANGE In the event of a tiny puncture, tubeless tires will take a long time to deflate, as they tend to keep air inside. If you find the pressure low in one tire, check the tire for punctures. Attention Punctured tires must be replaced. Replace tires with recommended standard tires only. Be sure to tighten the valve caps securely to avoid leaks when riding. Never use tube type tires. Failure to heed this warning may lead to sudden tire blowout and serious danger to rider and passenger. After replacing a tire, the wheel must be balanced. Important Check and set tire pressure when tires are cold. When traveling very bumpy roads, increase tire pressure by 0.2÷0.3 bar (2.9÷4.35 PSI) to preserve the roundness of the front rim. Attention Do not remove or shift the wheel balancing weights. 231
