GENERAL ADVICE & RIDING TIPS
GENERAL ADVICE
• Routinely check the bicycle, especially frame bolts, brakes, tyres, rims and all components.
Please follow the maintenance schedule on the next page.
• Always check your frame bolts to make sure they are tight and that ‘Top Hat’ bushings are in
place. If you are missing any, contact us for replacement.
• Moving parts will need lubricating from time to time and it’s worth lightly greasing the seat post
every few rides to prevent seizure. Never oil or grease the braking surface on the rim, brake pads or
disc rotors.
• Please ensure you check the brakes at regular intervals, especially when the bike is frequently
ridden. Replace brake pads if they are showing signs of wear towards the marked wear line on
V-brakes or towards the metal backing plate on disc brake pads.
• Like any mechanical device, a bicycle and its components are subject to wear and stress.
Different materials and mechanisms wear or fatigue from stress at different rates and have
different life cycles. If you think there is something wrong with the bike and you don’t have the
tools or knowledge to fix it, please contact us or take it to your nearest bike shop.
• Check your tyre pressures regularly with a pressure gauge (most ‘track pumps’ have one fitted).
The recommended minimum and maximum pressure is printed on the sidewall of the tyre. It is
important not to over-inflate or let your tyres drop below the minimum.
WARNING: Our V-brake rims have an indicator dot. When this dot
becomes flush with the rest of the rim or disappears, it is time to replace
the wheel.
