Maintaining Your Burley:
• Inspect chain, chainring and rear cog(s); replace if worn.
• Clean and lubricate pivot points on derailleur (Piccolo only), wipe excess lubricant
to prevent dirt buildup.
• Inspect derailleur cable for fraying and replace as necessary (Piccolo only).
• Adjust shifting as necessary (Piccolo only).
• Ensure that chain is not loose (Kazoo only); tighten chain by moving hub
back if needed.
• Check wheel for trueness; inspect for cracks at spoke hole or sidewall.
Retrue or replace if necessary.
• Verify that bottom bracket spins smoothly and doesn’t exhibit any play; tighten fixing
bolts for crank arms.
• Disassemble bearings in hitch and hub and repack with grease if needed.
• Repair or replace any worn-out parts.
Fastener Torque Specifications:
Correct tightening torque of threaded fasteners is very important to your safety. Always
tighten fasteners to the correct torque. In case of a conflict between the instructions in
this manual and information provided by a component manufacturer, consult with your
dealer or the manufacturer’s customer service representative for clarification. Bolts
that are too tight can stretch and deform. Bolts that are too loose can move and fatigue.
Either mistake can lead to a sudden failure of the bolt.
Always use a correctly calibrated torque wrench to tighten critical fasteners on your
bike. Carefully follow the torque wrench manufacturer’s instructions on the correct way
to set and use the torque wrench for accurate results.
