31.4 Tyre pressure
INFORMATION
The tyre pressure affects the rolling resistance and suspension of the pedelec.
There are usually two values printed on the tyres, each specifying the maximum tyre
pressure.
The lower value applies to:
-
Lighter cyclists,
-
Cycling over uneven surfaces.
The higher value applies to:
-
Heavier cyclists,
-
Cycling over even surfaces.
• Check the tyre pressure at regular intervals.
-
If necessary, pump up the tyre or let air out of the tyre if the tyre pressure does not
match the specifications or is not suitable for the journey you are planning.
32 Pumping up tyres
1. Use a bicycle pump with a valve connector/adapter that is compatible with your valve.
2. Remove the protective cap from the valve.
3. Check the tyre pressure using a pressure gauge or a bicycle pump fitted with a pressure
gauge.
4. Pump up the tyre or let air out until you reach the correct tyre pressure.
5. Fit the previously removed protective cap back on the valve.
6. Then check that the bottom valve nut is screwed on correctly and securely. If necessary,
turn the nut clockwise to tighten.
