Figure 12: Checking the wedge bolt on the seat
post.
Check the tightening torques of the bolts on
the through axle and the seat post (see
"Recommended tightening torques").
Loose components.
If the bolts are not fastened correctly, parts
can come loose and cause a crash. Check the
bolts to ensure that they are tight and tighten
them if necessary.
Make sure that the wheels and the saddle are
properly fitted.
Wheels and tyres
Please check that the wheels and tyres are in
good condition.
Worn tyres
increase the risk of a crash.
Tyres with worn tread have less grip. You
should ask your dealer to check the tread on
your tyres regularly.
Check the tyre pressure with your thumb or
better still with a pressure gauge. If the
eMTB is not used for a long time or is
transported over a long distance, the tyre
pressure can drop.
Figure 13: Checking the tyre pressure.
You should never let the tyre pressure
exceed the maximum limit or fall below the
minimum limit.
You will find the tyre pressure table in the
section “List of tables”.
Make sure that both wheels turn freely and
that they run true.
