GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION
It is the user’s responsibility to examine the product on a regular basis to
determine the need for service or replacement. Wheels and their components are
products that wear from normal use of the bicycle, for that reason we recommend
cyclists to regularly inspect their bicycle and parts in order to detect any damage.
If any doubts or problems occurr, discontinue riding the wheels and have them
inspected by an official Deda Elementi dealer or a qualified bicycle technician.
These wheels have been designed and intened to be used on normal paved
surfaces. In case of use on not paved surfaces or off-road, wheels can be
subjected to damages, loose their functioning and cause serious accidents
and injury for the user.
Regularly check the wheels to be certain they are installed correctly to
the bicycle and fastened securely to the frame and fork through the quick
releases. An incorrect installation of the quick release can result in the wheel
separation from the fork and cause serious accidents and injury for the user.
If any bicycle fall or accident occur, discontinue riding the wheels and have
them inspected carefully by an official Deda Elementi dealer or a qualified
bicycle technician. The use of any damaged bicycle part can cause serious
accidents and injury for the user.
Deda SL38C wheels use carbon fiber rims that require specific brake pads
using with specil mixture to guarantee an efficient braking performance e
carbon rim structure integrity over time. Use only original brake pads Deda
Elementi for carbon rims. Any other different brake pad, as those intended for
carbon rims, can cause malfunctions or decrease the braking performance
and cause serious accidents and injury for the user.
Carbon clincher rims can be subjected to overheating while braking on long
descents. This phenomenon combined to the tire’s pressure on the rim hook,
it can bring to the rim’s deformation during the use. It is recommended,
in compliance with the traffic laws and the standard of good conduct of
the bicycle, do not keep the brakes pulled if not for the necessary time to
decelerating or stopping the bicycle. In case of very long descents, it is
recommended to pull and release the brakes alternatively, in order to allow a
better rim cooling rather than pulling the brakes permanently. If the brake fade
occurs (the reduction in stopping power), user must stop the bicycle and wait
for cooling the rims and the brake pads in order to prevent the deterioration
of the parts.

Bicycle rim is a component subjected to wear even during normal riding
conditions. Inspect the rim brake surface regularly and discontinue in
case of damages or doubts on the wear status of the component. In case
the rim replacement be required, plase contact an official Deda Elementi.
The continous use of a worn rim damage the braking efficiency, cause the
component failure and cause serious accidents and injury for the user.
Adjust the brake pads according to the instructions included in this user’s
manual. An incorrect brake pads adjustment can affect the efficiency of the
wheel braking performance, damage the rims and cause serious accidents
and injury for the user.
Install only bicycle tires compatible with rims technical specifications included
in this user’s manual. The installation of tires not compatible can damage
the rim wheels, invalidate the Deda Elementi Warranty and cause serious
accidents and injury for the user.
