We know not everybody is mechanically inclined, but every rider should master these basic skills.
CHECK YOUR TIRES
Properly inflated tires make for an enjoyable ride. Checking your tires for inflation and wear is your first
step to improve your eBike’s performance. Check your tire pressure. Use a tire gauge, or a pump
equipped with a gauge, to check your tire pressure. Inflate (or deflate) your tires to proper air pressure.
Use a hand pump to inflate your tires to the air pressure recommended. Make sure your pump is suitable
for a Schrader valve.
WASH YOUR EBIKE
1. It just feels better to ride a clean eBike. Not only does it look good, it will also add to the life of the
eBike. Constant attention to your eBike’s details will keep you up to date with maintenance as well.
2. All you need is a water hose, a bucket, mild soap, a soft brush, and a towel. Wet your eBike with the
hose, then work with the brush from the top down using plenty of soapy water. Rinse the soap off and
wipe it down.
High pressure water may damage eBike parts. Do not clean your eBike with a high-pressure washer as it
may seep into electric connectors, motors, controllers or other parts of the electric system.
DEGREASE AND LUBE YOUR CHAIN
Proper lubrication will keep your chain running smoothly and quietly and will prolong the life of your chain.
We recommend you clean (degrease) the chain prior to lubrication.
Degrease: It’s a dirty job, so leave your dress clothes in the closet. You’ll need a bike-specific degreaser
(a biodegradable option is good). There are designated chain-cleaner tools but you can also use a
toothbrush. Apply the degreaser with a toothbrush or a chain-cleaner tool to the bottom length of the
chain and pedal backwards. After degreasing, wash the chain with soapy water and a brush, rinse it clean,
and allow to dry. Re-lube your chain after degreasing.
REMOVE & REPLACE YOUR WHEELS
Be careful not to press the brake lever after removing the wheel. This may close the brake pads making it
difficult for the rotor to go back inside the pads.
REMOVE THE REAR WHEEL
1. Shift down to the smallest gear in the cassette.
2. Loosen the thru-axle on the wheel.
3. Grab the derailleur body and push down, then back and release the wheel from the dropouts.
4. Tilt the wheel and remove the chain from the cassette. Set the wheel and your eBike down with
the gears up.
REPLACE THE REAR WHEEL
1. Standing at the rear of the eBike, with the wheel between your knees, grab the rear derailleur with
your right hand and pull back and push down making sure the top of the chain drops over the first (or
smallest) gear on the cassette. Make sure the wheel axle fits all the way into the frame of the eBike.
2. Tighten the thru-axle bolts.
REMOVE & REPLACE YOUR TIRE
1. Deflate the inner tube.
2. Loosen the tire from the rim.
3. Use your hands or tire levers to remove the tire from one side of the rim. Do not use a sharp object
such as a screwdriver to remove the tire.
4. With one side of the tire removed, you can reach in and remove the inner tube.
5. To remove the tire completely, use your hands or tire levers to remove the other side of the tire
from the rim.
REPLACE THE TIRE ON THE WHEEL
1. Take this opportunity to examine the tire and the rim for defects.
2. Inflate the inner tube just enough for it to take shape.
3. Place the inner tube in the tire so that it is inside the tire all the way around. Insert the valve stem
through the hole in the rim.
4. With your hands only, push one side of the tire over the rim. Make sure the tube is now inside the rim.
5. Push the other side of the tire over the rim.
6. From the outside of the tire, prop the valve stem up through the rim.
7. Inflate the tire to the pressure indicated on the side of the tire. Do not over-inflate.
8. Check to make sure the tire bead is set on the rim.
WARNING: Do not get lubricant on rim
sidewalls, disc brake rotors or brake pads.
Lubricant on brake surfaces can cause decreased
braking function, and increase the possibility of
an accident or injury. Wipe off any lubricant that
contacts brake surfaces.
Lubricate: Use a bike-specific chain lubricant.
Apply lubricant to each link pin as you slowly
pedal backwards. Wipe off any excess lubricant.
