Recommended Service Intervals
Regular inspection and maintenance are key to ensure Ariel Rider E-Bikes function as intended, and to
reduce wear and tear on their systems. Recommended service intervals are meant to be used as
guidelines. Real world wear and tear, and the need for service, will vary with conditions of use. We
generally recommend inspections, service, and necessary replacements be performed at the time or
