For painted frames ,dust the surface and remove any loose dirt with a dry cloth. Clean and wipe with a damp cloth soaked in
a mild detergent mixture. Dry with a cloth and polish with car or furniture wax. Use soap and water to clean plastic parts and
robber tires. Chrome plated bikes should be wiped over with a rust preventative fluid.
Store your bicycle under shelter. Avoid leaving it in the rain or being exposed to corrosive materials.
Riding on the beach or in coastal areas exposes you bicycle to salt which is very corrosive. Wash your bicycle frequently and
wipe or spray all unpainted parts with an anti-rust treatment .Make sure wheel rims are dry so braking performance is not
affected. After rain, dry you bicycle and apply anti-rust treatment.
If the hub and bottom bracket bearings of your bicycle have been submerged in water, they should be taken out and re-
greased. This will prevent accelerated bearing deterioration.
If paint has become scratched or chipped to the metal, use touch up paint to prevent rust. Clear nail polish can also be used
as a preventative measure.
Regularly clean and lubricate all moving parts ,tighten components and make adjustments as required.
Storage
Keep your bicycle in a dry location which is away from the weather and sun.
Direct sunlight may cause paint to fade or rubber and plastic parts to crack. Before storing your bicycle for a long period of
time, clean and lubricate all components and wax the frame. Deflate the tires to half pressure and hang the bicycle off the
ground. Charge your batteries and make sure they are protected from water. Batteries should be charged every 30 days to
avoid capacity loss. Don
’t cover the bicycle with plastic as “sweating” will result and it may cause rusting. Please notice that
your bicycle warranty does not cover paint damage (except as outlined in the warranty section of this manual),rust, corrosion,
dry rot or theft.
