Transport and
Storage
Please follow these basic parking, storage and transport tips to ensure your bike is well cared for on and off the road.
•
Park
in a flat, steady, well-ventilated and dry area
if available
. It is recommended to park indoors whenever possible.
•
Remove the key from the bike and ensure the battery is locked to the frame
or removed and brought with you for security.
• Avoid exposure to direct sunlight and rain to reduce
potential
damage and aging. If you must park outdoors in rain, or wet conditions, you
should only leave your E- Bike outside for a few hours and proceed to park the bike in a dry location afterwards to allow all systems to dry out.
Use in wet conditions mandates a more regular maintenance schedule to ensure all systems are always working safely and reduce corrosion
•
Do not transport your
E-
Bike on a rack that is not designed for the size and weight of the bike.
•
Wide tires, as used on
your E-
Bike, cannot fit into all bike racks, please select an appropriate rack for the width of tires
on your E-Bike.
• Remove the battery pack to reduce the weight of the E-Bike and make lifting and loading easier.

TRANSPORT
•
Store your E-Bike indoors if at all possible. Store in a warm, dry location to reduce corrosion.
•
Remove the battery from your E-Bike and charge periodically to ensure the battery does not fully discharge during storage period
•
Hang you E-Bike if possible to prevent flat spots on your tires. If hanging is not possible, rotate the tires every couple of weeks.
• Lubricate the chain and cables prior to storing to ensure corrosion does not damage components during storage period.
• Cover your E-Bike to eliminate dirt and debris from accumulating on critical components.
• After long periods of storage, complete full safety check and perform the full maintenance schedule to place E-Bike back in service.
