Maintenance
The G6.1 and G6.2 are high-performance bicycles.
The G6.3 is an off-road vehicle.
All regular maintenance, troubleshooting, repair and parts replacement must be performed
by an Authorized Greyp Retailer.
Great care should be taken to not damage carbon fibre or composite material. Any damage
may result in a loss of structural integrity, which may result in a catastrophic failure. This
damage may or may not be visible on inspection. Before each ride, and after any crash, you
should carefully inspect your vehicle for any fraying, gouging, scratches through the paint,
chipping, bending, or any other signs of damage. If discovered, not ride any further and take
your vehicle to an Authorized Greyp Retailer for a complete inspection.
The lifespan and the type and frequency of maintenance depend on many factors, such
as frequency and type of use, rider weight, riding conditions and/or impacts. Additionally,
the G6 uses a power-assisted drive system, which means more distance at different rates,
depending on the component. Drivetrain and brake components are especially subject to
wear. Periodically have your Authorized Greyp Retailer inspect your vehicle and components.
Exposure to harsh elements, especially salty air (such as riding near the ocean or in the winter)
can result in galvanic corrosion of components, which can accelerate wear and shorten the
lifespan. Dirt can also accelerate the wear of surfaces and bearings. The surfaces of the vehi
-
cle should be cleaned before each ride. Proper care and regular maintenance can help increase
the longevity of components. If you notice any signs of corrosion or cracking on the frame
or any component, the affected item must be replaced. While riding, listen for any creaks, as
a creak can be a sign of a problem with one or more components. Periodically examine all
surfaces in bright sunlight to check for any small hairline cracks and if you discover any, no
matter how small, or any damage to components, immediately stop riding and have the part
inspected by your as retailer. The vehicle should also be maintained regulally by an authorized
Greyp retailer, which means it should be cleaned and lubricated. Regularly clean and lubricate
the drivetrain according to the drivetrain manufacturer’s instructions.
