Danger
: In this manual we collected many tightening torques in Nm. Never trust only your feeling: “thightened”not equals
“tightened”. ONLY a torque wrench guarantees exact tightening torques. So please always use this tool if there are any tightening
torques named in this manual. Wrong tightened bolts could lead to misfunction, failure or accidents.

riese und müller bikes take advantage of unusually innovative technology, so even if you’re an ‘old hand’ who has been riding
bikes for a lifetime, do read and observe the following tips carefully before you first use the bike.
So that every ride is a
pleasure, and for your own safety, the quick check procedure should be performed before every ride. You can read how to do
this check on page 5 of this booklet.
Danger
: Do not ride if the bike doesn’t pass the check 100%!
There are a whole series of maintenance and assembly procedures described in this manual. If you carry out any of these, you must
always remember that the instructions apply only to the Frog and not to any other bike.
It’s also possible that because of the wide range of models, and regular model changes, that the instructions are not entirely
complete.
