SERVICE
WARNING:
Please note that bicycle technology is
continuously changing to improve performance and use,
but this has also made components mechanically more
complex.
It is therefore very important that you minimize the
chance of an accident or potential injury by having any repair
or maintenance, not discussed in this Manual, be performed
by your local OHM bicycle dealer. In addition, your individual
maintenance requirements will be determined by a number of
factors from your riding style to your geographic location. Your
dealer can assist you in identifying maintenance requirements
for your specific riding needs.
WARNING:
Many bicycle service and repair tasks
require specific knowledge, tools and skills.
Do not attempt
to perform any adjustment or service to your OHM bicycle that
you are unfamiliar with or are ill equipped to perform properly.
Improper adjustments or service can result in damage to your
bicycle (and its components) or result in an accident while
riding, which can damage your bicycle and/or cause you
serious injury or death.
If you want to learn more about proper maintenance and service on
your bicycle, consider the following options:
1.
Ask your dealer for copies of the manufacturer’s installation and
service instructions for the components on your bike, or contact the
component manufacturer directly.
2.
Ask your dealer to recommend a book on bicycle repair.
3.
Ask your local dealer about the availability of bicycle repair
courses in your area.
Regardless of the option you choose, we strongly recommend
that you have your local dealer check to ensure the quality of your
adjustment or service the first time you perform the work. This will
ensure you have completed the work properly. This will likely mean
that your dealer’s mechanic will need to take the time to evaluate
your work and result in modest charge for his/her time. This small
investment in ensuring your adjustment or service is correct will
contribute greatly in reducing the possibility of damage or harm to
you or your bicycle, and will assist you in developing your skills in
bicycle maintenance.
