MAINTENANCE AND UPKEEP
In this section, you will find a lot of advice to help you maintain your
cargo bike. However, please remember that for any repairs you should
contact your Retailer or DOUZE Cycles Technical Centre. They will also
be able to advise you on using DOUZE Cycles products.
Cleaning and lubrication
We advise you to clean your LT regularly, especially if you use it every
day. The dust and other particles you pick up on the road are very abra-
sive and could cause premature wear of the cargo bike’s components.
This applies particularly to moving mechanical parts. The entire frame
can be cleaned with soapy water and a soft cloth, then rinsed with
clean water. Brake discs must be cleaned with a special product to
maintain optimum braking in all conditions. The transmission compo-
nents must be cleaned with a brush and an appropriate product, then
lubricated, ensuring that the brake components are protected.
Even though your LT is designed for use in all
weather conditions, try to store it where it is protec-
ted from bad weather to protect the frame and the
various components.
Never clean your DOUZE LT using a high-pressure
water jet as this could damage the bike, especially
the motor components. This type of damage invali-
dates the warranty.
Your cargo bike can be cleaned with soapy water
and a soft cloth, then rinsed with clean water.
Always protect braking system components before
lubrication so they are not contaminated. Brake
pads contaminated with lubricant must be changed
immediately, taking care to degrease the disc befo-
rehand.
