RECOMMENDED MAINTENANCE

 

To keep your Bobbin running beautifully we recommend regular servicing with a qualified mechanic. 

•

 

Parts like tyres, brake blocks, brake & gear cables, the chain and freewheel/cassette will wear over 

time and will need replacing at some point. Bobbin bikes use universal parts that will be available from 

many retailers but if in doubt please contact us. 

•

 

 Keeping your Bobbin clean and serviced will significantly extend the life of your bike and makes for 

     happier cycling all around. (For more information on servicing and maintenance please check your 
     user manual) 
•

 

  Easy maintenance that can be done at home with the correct tools and equipment includes: 

      - Inflating the tyres every few weeks 
      - Cleaning the bike, lubricating the gears and oiling the chain 
      - Checking parts are tight 
      - Adjusting brakes and gears as necessary
