3. Cleaning and maintenance.
Proper maintenance of a Giant XtC dual suspension bicycle is important to insure years of trouble free
safe riding and enjoyment.
We recommend taking this bike to your authorised Giant dealer for periodic service and inspection of
suspension systems. Parts such as seals, elastomer bumpers and bearings can be adversely affected
by use, dirt and ultraviolet radiation. The bike should be returned to an authorised Giant dealer for rear
shock inspection and adjustment once a year or more often if the bike is used in extreme conditions.
(Note: this is not covered under the terms of the warranty and is not necessarily free of charge!).
DO NOT use high-pressure water or air hoses to clean bike. This can force dirt into areas that may
cause damage.
DO NOT lubricate any of the pivot points. These are high quality self lubricating Teflon
TM
or similar
surfaced pivots.
See also the manuals of the suppliers of the suspension fork, rear shock (RockShox SID), and other
parts that come with this XtC bike.
