Loose wheels.
A loose wheel can cause a crash or an
accident. Before every ride, check that the
wheels are not loose.
Sudden loss of tyre pressure.
If the tyre pressure is too high, the tyre can
burst or come off the rim. In this case, there
is a risk of crashing. Always ride with tyres at
the correct tyre pressure.
Worn tyres increase the risk of a crash!
Tyres with worn tread have less grip. You
should ask your ROTWILD authorised dealer
to check the tread on your tyres regularly.
When you first use the bike, the spokes and
nipples can settle. Check that your wheels
run true. If they do not, have them checked
and, if necessary, centred by your ROTWILD
authorised dealer.
Risk of injury!
If you do not have the necessary technical
knowledge or do not carry out the
maintenance correctly, you could be injured.
- Wear protective gloves.
- Keep your fingers away from moving
parts.
- Make sure that your fingers do not get
trapped.
Checks before every ride
Check the bolts before every ride to make
sure that the wheel is securely fixed in the
fork. This is particularly important if you leave
your eBike parked in a public place.
Check that the bolts on the through axle are
tightened to the specified torque (see
"Recommended tightening torques").
