MAINTENANCE
Please check and adjust lock-rings, cranks, pedals and
check all nuts bolts are secure before and after every ride.
Stripped threads etc due to parts not being tightened may
not be covered by warranty.
Periodically check the braking mechanism and adjust as
required. Brake pads wear over time, the inner pad can be
adjusted inwards by removing the rear wheel and adjusting
the 5mm hex on the wheel side of the brake.
The driver on the rear wheel
should be removed and
sprayed with CRC or similar on
a monthly basis. Do not used
grease, this will only promote
the accumulation of dust and
grit and promote wear.
IMPORTANT:
KEEP YOUR BIKE CLEAN!!
Wildcat frames are hi-tensile steel and
Cro-Moly steel. As such any small stone chips,
nicks or scratches in coatings will rust if left
unattended. To ensure your Wildcat looks
good for years to come, we recommend
regular cleaning and wiping ALL surfaces
down with CRC or similar on a regular basis
to prevent corrosion, particularly if the paint
or coatings become scratched. Alternatively
surfaces can be cleaned and sprayed with a
clear coat for protection.
1 piece crank
on the
OG
is a standard
open bearing. to prolong lifespan it
will occasionally require a clean and
re-grease. This can be ascertained by
visual inspection, and if the crank feels
a little rough when riding.
3 piece crank
on the
OG-PRO
has
sealed bearings, so should not require
re-greasing. Check assembly is tight
and secure.
Clean and lube chain
periodically
Ensure tyres are inflated
to the recommended
pressure for each relative
wheel design as detailed
on
