REPAIR, MAINTENANCE AND APPEARANCE CARE
Simplicity is a hallmark of JackRabbit’s design. We’ve chosen to use mature and readily
available components. This design strategy not only improves reliability, but also reduces
the documentation you have to read through. This
Owner’s Manual is half the size of
JackRabbit’s competitors.
If either tire should suffer a puncture you can take your JackRabbit to a bicycle shop where
installing a new inner tube will cost about $15. Or for a rear tire puncture you can:
1. Unplug the 9-pin motor cable.
2. Loosen the two 17 mm axle bolts
3. Remove the wheel from the frame.
4. Unseat the tire bead from the rim using a plastic pry tool.
5. Remove the inner tube.
6. Inspect the inside wall of the tire and remove what may remain of the cause of the
puncture--otherwise your new tube may pop!
7. Install a new inner tube--or the old one after patching it.
8. Reseat the tire bead then inflate to 20-35 psi. Note: lower pressures increase the chance of
a puncture. Higher pressures will not absorb bumps as well.
9. Reinstall the rear wheel in the frame, tighten both axle bolts securely. (25 lb-ft)
10. Re-connect the motor cable being careful to align the two highlighted arrows (
) before
applying full pressure to achieve the waterproof seal.
The only other maintenance item is the disc brake pad set. As they wear down you can maintain
your stopping power by turning the barrel adjuster on the brake lever counter clockwise. The pads
will eventually require replacement. They are inexpensive, but their installation may not be trivial.
You can periodically wipe down your JackRabbit with a damp cloth and mild, water-based cleaner
to maintain its finish. Store your JackRabbit out of direct sunlight and in a dry, cool environment to
prevent unnecessary weathering damage.

WARNING: YOU COULD BE SERIOUSLY INJURED OR EVEN KILLED IF YOU
