high forces of the retention devices may cause damage to the wheels
MAINTENANCE & CARE
1. Load limit of your product (the weight of rider + bike + luggage)
。
WheelSystems for road bike: 285 lbs. / 129kg
07
08
2. Storing your WheelSystems
。
Carbon WheelSystems may be damaged by improper storing. Do not
hang the bike by the wheel while displaying or storage.(Figure 13)
3. Contact your authorized CADEX retailer for all wheel service needs.
Have the spoke tension and the wheel trueness checked regularly.
Spoke tension that is too high or too low can cause high operating
loads of the wheel components and could lead to a premature failure
caused by material fatigue.
4. Check the wheels before and after every ride for any damage.
Do not ride the wheels under any circumstances if there is any damage
to the rim or other components of the wheels.
For example: deformation of the braking surface, cracks in the rim,
broken spokes, and looseness or play in the bearings.
If this is the case, contact your authorized CADEX retailer to resolve
the problem.
5. Get your bike checked by authorized CADEX retailer after every accident that may result in
damage to your WheelSystems.
6. CLEANING:
A. Wheels must be cleaned frequently with a soft sponge and neutral cleaner (such as mild soap and water).
Do not use solvents (e.g. acetone, mineral spirits, etc.).
B. Hub: The front and rear hub must be maintained at least once a year. If used regularly under extreme
conditions (e.g. strong rain, mud, transport in rain, etc.) the driver body should be maintained more
frequently. Frequent maintenance of the hubs guarantees a longer life span and optimal performance
over time. Use of high-pressure water or strong cleaner may inject external contaminants into the hub
and should be avoided. Do not use strong solvents. (e.g. acetone, mineral spirits, etc.).
C. Sealant: to retain proper air tightness and puncture repair functionality, follow below mentioned
maintenance frequency:
• Every 2 months: check and re
fi
ll sealant as necessary
• Once per year: Remove old or dry sealant and use only a cloth rag to wipe the inside of the tire.
Improper maintenance may result in failure of sealant functionalities.
。
Before riding your bicycle, check the tire pressure and clean all contaminants and brake pad residue
(grit, dirt, oil, etc.) from the tires, brake pad and braking surface (particularly any traces of oil or grease)
and check the wear of the brake pads, brake surface of the rim before every ride. Replace worn out
brake pads with new ones to maintain optimum braking effect.
。
If you use CADEX Tubeless WheelSystems with tubeless tires, check your tire after riding your bicycle.
If tire damage exists which the sealant cannot seal, your tire structure is damaged, replace your tire.
