Salt Water Environment Maintenance
⇒
Chain:
Many resorts utilize two chains. One is soaked in Diesel fuel and then replaces the chain on
the bike. They change chains every week.
⇒
Seat:
Before assembly of the bike, take the spring off of the seat and spray with two coats of rust
oleum primer, and then spray it with one coat of black rust oleum paint. This will add many
months to the life of the springs
(if equipped).
⇒
Seat Post:
The seat post should be removed from the frame at least once a month and sprayed with
protective oil.
⇒
Handlebar Stem:
This should be removed once a month and packed with grease and then replaced.
