Break-in Period: Your bike will last longer and work better if you break it in before riding it hard.
Control cables and wheel spokes may stretch or “seat” when a new bike is frst used and may require
read¬justment by your dealer. Your Mechanical Safety Check will help you identify some things that
need readjust¬ment. But even if everything seems fne to you, it’s best to take your bike back to the
dealer for a checkup. Dealers typically suggest you bring the bike in for a 30 day checkup. Another way
to judge when it’s time for the frst checkup is to bring the bike in after three to fve hours of hard off-
road use, or about 10 to 15 hours of on-road or more casual off-road use. But if you think something is
wrong with the bike, take it to your dealer before riding it again.

Before every ride: Mechanical Safety Check.
After every long or hard ride; if the bike has been exposed to water or grit; or at least every 100
miles: Clean the bike (frst consult the drive system manufac-turer’s user manual for specifc clean¬ing
instructions or warnings) and lightly lubricate the chain’s rollers with a good quality bicycle chain
lubricant. Wipe off excess lubricant with a lint-free cloth. Lubrication is a function of climate. Talk to your
dealer about the best lubricants and the recommended lubrication fre-quency for your area.
After every long or hard ride or after every 10 to 20 hours of riding:
• Squeeze the front brake and rock the bike forward and back. Everything feel solid? If you feel a clunk
with each for-ward or backward movement of the bike, you probably have a loose head-set. Have your
dealer check it.
• Lift the front wheel off the ground and swing it from side to side. Feel smooth? If you feel any binding or
roughness in the steering, you may have a tight head¬set. Have your dealer check it.
