Every 500 miles:
Check for tire wear, replace the tire if the tread
appears to be worn. The rear tire will wear 3x
faster than the front tire as the motor powers
the rear wheel.
Check break pads for wear. Replace brake
pads if they appear worn.
Every 1500 miles:
Have the bicycle cleaned and adjusted by
qualified bicycle mechanic.

completely.

elements. Charge the battery in a sheltered
environment. Do not store battery inside a car under
direct sunlight
Discontinue the use of the battery if it is damaged for
any reason.
