Cleaning the bike
Most cleaning can be done with soap, water, sponges and brushes.
»
Avoid using high-pressure sprayers because water can penetrate
through seals ;
»
Avoid using corrosive soaps and strong solvents –
always use cleaning products intended for an electric bicycle ;
»
For an extremely dirty chain we recommend using a solvent-bath chain
cleaner.
»
Remove the battery before cleaning the bike.
Chain
After every wash, the chain should be wiped and lubricated. After every few rides, lube slightly.
After every 400 km [250 mi], check for chain elongation. Use a chain-elongation gauge to
determine whether the chain should be replaced.
Fork
Wipe and clean the forks after every ride.
Performing the right maintenance on your fork not only ensures years of worry-free riding,
but will also keep performance optimal and enhance your experience on the bike. Each
service interval indicates the maximum number of riding hours designated for each type of
recommended maintenance. Depending on the terrain and environmental conditions in your
location, your riding style and skill level, you may see more optimum performance if you
service your fork at shorter intervals. For specific detail check the suspension manufacturer
service manuals.
