6 - MAINTENANCE
SPROCKETS - Rev. 00/ 06-2021
The life of the components depends on conditions of use and on the frequency and quality of maintenance. To keep the
components in good condition, cleaning and lubrication must therefore be repeated frequently, especially if it is subjected to
heavy-duty use (i.e. after washing your bicycle, after every ride in wet, dusty or muddy conditions etc.).
• Dirt seriously damage bicycles and their components. Thoroughly rinse, clean and dry your bike after using it in these conditions.
• Never spray your bicycle with water under pressure. Pressurized water, even from the nozzle of a small garden hose, can pass
seals and enter into your Campagnolo
®
components, damaging them beyond repair. Wash your bicycle and Campagnolo
®
compo-
nents by wiping them down with water and neutral soap.
Dry them using a soft cloth. Never use abrasive or metal pads.
For cleaning the bicycle only use environmentally-friendly and neutral products without caustic substan-
ces and safe to use for you and for the environment.
!
Salty environments (such as winter roads or roads near the sea) may lead to galvanic corrosion of most
of the bicycle’s exposed components. To prevent damage, malfunctions and accidents, rinse, dry and
carefully re-lubricate all components which are subject to this phenomenon.
WARNING!
• Dry the drivetrain with a soft cloth: never use abrasive sponges or metal scouring pads.
• Before lubricating, carefully clean the drivetrain (system, sprocket pack, chainrings and rear derailleur wheels) with a brush or cloth
soaked in a specific degreaser/detergent. In the case of dust or mud, remove any residuals with specific plastic tools.
• Relubricate the components carefully using a lubricant suitable to purpose.
Using poor-quality or incorrect lubricant may damage the chain and cause excessive wear or damage to
the system. A damaged drive system can malfunction, resulting in an accident, personal injury or death.
WARNING!
• After application, turn the hand cranks using all the possible gear combinations in order to properly lubricate the entire drivetrain.
• Carefully clean any remaining lubricant remaining on the bicycle or the floor
Lubricant residues on the rims, brake shoes, discs and brake pads can decrease or nullify your bicycle’s
braking capacity, and can lead to accidents, physical injuries, or even death.
WARNING!
