MECHANISM AND MAINTENANCE
10.1 WHEELS
The rims and tires are an extremely important part of the STAND UP and they
should be kept in right condition. Check the right pressure and control the wear
out of the tires and the rim conditions. Make sure that the wheels are well
placed and fitted.
TIRES
The tires are to be in good state and properly inflated and the tread to be
neither cracked nor worn down. The drawing pattern must keep as the minimum
2 mm in order to provide good traction.
The sizes are indicated on the sides of the tires. Make sure to get the tires
suitable to the rim and the type of the vehicle
ADVISE: The front tyre wears down quicker than the others by the
traction, avoid to slip on the starts. The feet should be placed forwards on
the platform in order to get more grip.
CAUTION
:
When replacing a tire, make sure to be suitable to
the rim and the type of the vehicle
. The STAND UP tires are different
from the
standard ones.
Tire pressure
Tires must be inflated to the right pressure to ensure the bike works properly.
The valve is the “Schrader” type like the ones used by the cars. To inflate the
tyre, the valve shall be removed, then and place the nozzle on the valve,
ensuring that no air escapes , check the pressure and place the cap back on
the valve to keep it from getting dirty. If the inner tube gets flat, it is
recommended to be changed not to repair it.
Remember: The maximum air pressure is indicated on the lateral tires
side
The air pressure must be checked regularly
