Bicycle Safety Checklist

WARNING

• This checklist is a quick way to check if your

bicycle is ready for use.

• If your bicycle fails at any time, do not ride it and

schedule a maintenance check-up with a profes-

sional bicycle mechanic.

Check tire pressure, wheel alignment, spoke

tension, and if the spindle bearings are tight.

Check for wear and tear on the rims and

other wheel components.

Check brake function. Check if the

handlebars, handlebar stem, handle post

and handlebar are adjusted properly and

undamaged.

Check for loose links in the chain and that

the chain rotates freely through the gears.

Make sure there is no metal fatigue on the

crank and the cables are operating smoothly

and without damage.

Ensure that the quick releases and bolts

are fastened tightly and adjusted properly.

Slightly lift the bicycle and drop to test for

tremor, shake and stability of the frame (es-

pecially the hinges and latches of the frame

and the handle post).

Check that the tires are properly inflated and

there is no wear and tear.

The bicycle should be clean and without

wear. Look for discolored spots, scratches

or wear, especially on the brake pads, which

contact the rim.

Check that the wheels are secure. They

should not slide on the hub axle. Then, use

your hands to squeeze every pair of spokes.

If the spoke tensions are different, align your

wheel. Finally, rotate both wheels to make

sure they turn smoothly, are aligned and do

not touch the brake pads.

Make sure that your wheels will not come

off, holding each end of the bicycle in the air

and hitting the wheel downward from above.

Test your brakes by standing over your

bicycle and activating both brakes, and then

rock the bicycle forward and backward. The

bicycle should not roll and the brake pads

should remain firmly in place.

Make sure that the brake pads are aligned

with the rim and check for wear on both.
