Maintenance
Suspension forks are components of sophisticated design that require
regular maintenance and care. This has led almost all suspension fork
manufacturers to establish service centres where you can have your fork
thoroughly checked and overhauled at regular intervals according to use,
e.g. once a year. Have all bolted connections checked regularly by your
Ca Go dealer.
Warning
On your CS, the fork is subjected to significantly more stress than on a nor-
mal bicycle. Therefore, check the suspension fork regularly for excess lubri-
cant, dents, cracks and deformations. If you find out defects, contact your
Ca Go dealer immediately. Do not ride with a possibly damaged suspension
fork.
The following routines are essential for maintenance:
• Make sure the sliding surfaces of the stanchion tubes are absolutely
clean.
• Clean the fork, if soiled, with water and a soft sponge.
