WEEKLY MAINTENANCE
Weekly maintenance should focus on the overall performance of your Johnny G Spirit Bike. During these
inspections, look for vibration and possible loose assemblies. Have an experienced rider ride each bike to
identify and help diagnose any vibration, noises, and any "unusual" feeling from the drive belt. Either faulty
flywheel alignment or a loose belt can cause vibration. Check for proper flywheel alignment. If flywheel
requires adjustment refer maintenance to a properly trained service tech. Inspect each bike for loose
assemblies, parts, bolts and nuts. Give attention to the following:
•
Tighten all frame base hardware.
•
Tighten all pop-pin handles.
•
Tighten seat hardware.
•
Tighten pedal toe clip/toe straps.
MONTHLY MAINTENANCE
The monthly maintenance check should be a comprehensive inspection of the overall frame and main
assembly components of the Johnny G Spirit Bike in addition to the Weekly Maintenance.
INSPECTION AND ADJUSTMENT
Inspect major moving parts that require constant proper torque. Loose or misadjusted parts can result in
personal injury or damage to the bike. Check the following parts for security and/or proper torque.
Pedals
: Verify that the pedals are re-torqued after the first 10 hours of use and every 100 hours of operation,
thereafter. Use a torque wrench if components are loose. IMPORTANT: It is not recommended that members
change out the pedals on the bike.
NOTE: The pedal to the crank arm bolt torque is: 30 - 35 lbf•ft.
