GRACE EASY Manual
The GRACE EASY comes with the following tyres as standard:
CONTINENTAL EContact 28 X 1 3/8 X 1 5/8 equipment options reserved.
The recommended operating pressure for these tyres is a max. 6 bar (max 85 psi).
These tyres which are fitted as standard are directional. An arrow on the tyre wall
indicates the direction of travel.
Regularly check the tyre pressure (at least every 14 days). Note that warn tyres
always have a higher tyre pressure than cold ones. The tyre inflation pressure
changes by approx. 0.1 bar (1.45 psi) for each 10 °C (50 °F) change in air
temperature.
Since puncture protection is built into the tyres on the GRACE EASY, you are not
able to check the pressure of the tyres by pressing on the tyres with your thumb.
Always use a suitable measuring device for the tyre pressure, e.g. a floor pump with
tyre pressure indicator.
Use a new inner tube after a puncture. This gives you the best possible concentricity
of the wheels.
The reflecting strips on the tyre walls replace the spoke reflectors in accordance
with the legal requirements.
The rims on the GRACE EASY are designed for tubes with Sclaverand valves. To
inflate the tyres, remove the cap and initially undo the knurled nut.
The wheels on the GRACE EASY have been manufactured carefully and come
centrally aligned. Nevertheless, the spokes may shift during the first few kilometres.
For this reason, regularly check the tension on the spokes and have the wheel re-
centred by a specialist dealer if necessary.

Side-/double-kick stand
Depending on the model variant, the GRACE EASY has a double kick- or side stand. Lift up the
rear wheel of your GRACE EASY from the floor a little before extending/retracting the
double-kick stand.
Parking the bike on a downwards slope or pliant surface can cause it to fall over and
get damaged. Place it on a level floor which can support its weight as best as
possible. On upwards or downwards slopes always set it down in the line of slope,
with the front wheel pointing towards the highest point.
Neither the double kick or side stand are designed to support the weight of one
person. Do not sit on the bike while the side/double kick stand is extended.
