to make your bicycle more personally useful, you may choose to change parts or add accessories. not all accessories are compatible or safe. if you are unsure whether a part is appropriate or safe, consult your trek dealer. improper components or improper assembly can place unknown stress on your bike or components. stress can lead to failure, which can cause you to lose control and fall. before adding or changing any part of your bike, consult your trek dealer. before each ride, check your bike and its components against the following checklist. in addition, if you have had a crash or accident, even a minor one, always inspect the bike thoroughly before riding the bike again. the following information explains how to perform these checks. check that wheels are straight. spin each wheel and watch the rim as it passes through the brake pads or the frame. if the rim wobbles, up and down or from side to side, take your bike to your trek dealer for service. check tire inflation. inflate your tires to the air pressure recommended on the tire sidewalls. some tires offer a range of inflation. when inflating a tire, consider the weight of the rider (and any load). within the range, higher pressure usually gives the best performance on good surfaces like smooth pavement, while lower pressure works best for rough-road riding. check brakes. follow the inspection instructions for the type of brake on your bike. if your brakes do not pass inspection, refer to the brake systems section of chapter 3, or take your bicycle to your trek dealer for service. thank you for taking time to learn more about your new bike. in order to register your bike return to the home page and click the "register your bike" tab located directly under the owner's manual.
