Tires, like many other parts, are subject
to wear and tear. Check the profile depth,
tyre pressure and state of the lateral tyre
surfaces at regular intervals and take
note of signs of brittleness or wear.
Do not exceed the maximum tyre pres -
sure recommended when inflating the
tyres. Otherwise this could lead to a tyre
exploding. The tyres must be pumped
up with at least the stated minimum tyre
pressure. The tyre might detach from the
rim if the tyre pressure is too low.
The values for the permitted maximum
and minimum pressure are imprinted on
the lateral tyre surface. Do not exceed
the maximum pressure permitted.
Tyres may only be changed for identi-
cal, original tyres. The bicycle’s handling
could otherwise be negatively affected.
This may lead to accidents.
Sclaverand valves are used on your FLYER E-MTB.
It is a simple matter to measure tyre pressure by
fitting a pressure gauge to the open valve. Tubes
may only be changed for identical, original tubes.
Tubeless Ready Tyres
To ensure optimum riding at all times, even off-
road, FLYER MTBs are fitted with tubeless-ready
tyres. You enjoy the benefits of simple, tried-and-
tested handling, e.g. in the case of an inner tube
repair, but if you want you can also exploit the
better riding characteristics of tubeless tyres. The
outer tyre covers supplied ex works are ready for
tubeless use along with a rim sealant. With this
simple conversion which you should have under-
taken by your FLYER dealer, you can then enjoy
the benefits of improved traction in off-road use
and greater protection from punctures.
Tubeless tyres must only be mounted
and removed from the rims without tools,
otherwise this could lead to leaks. If the
sealant is not sufficient for preventing
damage, a normal tube can be used af-
ter removing the valve from the tubeless
system.
Suspension and chassis components
are vital parts of your FLYER. Service
and check your FLYER suspension at
regular intervals. Have your FLYER in-
spected by your FLYER specialist retail-
er at regular intervals. The chassis will
be more effective and last longer if it is
cleaned on a regular basis. Warm water
with a light cleaning agent is suitable for
cleaning this part of the bicycle.
Full suspension bicycles are not suitable
for use with trailers and child bike trail-
ers! The bearings and mounts are not
designed to withstand this sort of force.
This could result in strong wear and
breaks with serious consequences.
13. Wheels and tyres
The wheels are subject to a great deal of strain
through the uneven characteristics of the ground
and the weight of the rider.
• After the first 200 kilometres , the wheels must
be checked by a specialist and re-centred if
necessary.
• The tension of the spokes must be checked at
regular intervals. Loose or damaged spokes
must he retightened or replaced by a FLYER
specialist retailer.
13.1 Checking the rims
The stability of the rim is reduced if it is
exposed to a severe load, e.g. when
used off-road, and its susceptibility to
damage is increased. A bent, torn or bro-
ken rim may lead to major accidents and
severe falls. Do not continue to use your
FLYER if you notice damage to one of
the rims. Please allow a FLYER special-
ised retailer to check the rims.
13.2 Tyres and inner tubes
You should only replace damaged parts
with original spare parts.
