Adjusting
The hydraulic brakes are self-adjusting, but the
brake calliper may need to be centred if the
pads are rubbing against the disc.
1. Undo the two screws fastening the brake
calliper to the front fork, a half turn
should be enough.

Service and repairs
Take the bike to a bike shop to replace the
pads, bleed or repair the hydraulic brakes.
GEARS
All the moving parts of the gear system must
be kept clean and regularly lubricated for the
gears on the bike to function properly for a
long time. The derailleur should be lubricated
with molybdenum grease or the equivalent.

Adjusting
First adjust the outer position of the chain and
then the wire tension in the following steps.
BRAKES
The bike has hydraulic disc brakes and two
brake handles, one for the front wheel and one
for the back. They are located on the two sides
of the handlebars. The right-hand brake lever
controls the front brake and the left-hand brake
lever controls the back brake.
WARNING!
Do not ride the bike if the brakes are not
working properly.
Safe braking
Brake a bit sooner with the back brake than
with the front brake and never brake with
the front brake when turning or on loose or
slippery surfaces.
FRONT FORK
The front fork has a lockout function, which
means it can be locked to act as a rigid front
fork. This is useful when standing upright on
the bike to ride up a slope. The lockout knob is
on the right fork leg and switches on/off when
there is no pressure on the front fork.

MAINTENANCE
GENERAL
Clean the bike regularly for best lifespan
and functionality. Use a mild detergent and
avoid degreasing agents that can penetrate
the bearings and chain and interfere with
the lubrication. Store the bike in a dry place,
protected from direct sunlight.
CHAIN
Lubrication
The chain should be lubricated at regular
intervals. A dry chain wears more quickly, is
heavy going, and can rust.
