GE NE R A L S E RV IC E A ND C A R E //
You have purchased a high performance bicycle which requires a certain level of service
and maintenance to sustain the level of performance your frame was designed around.
Proper care will also ensure the bike is safe to ride at all levels. It is important to read
and understand the carbon care information as well as follow the maintenance schedule
and inspect your bicycle before each ride. These will not only help to limit or avoid costly
repairs but will also help to avoid injury due to service neglect and component failure.
carbon care
Intense Cycles employs advanced composite techniques and materials in
our frames which do require a certain level of care and maintenance to
ensure a safe experience at the high level of performance each frame is
designed around. Not following these guidelines will decrease the level
of performance and possibly cause injury or death.
• Use a soft cloth with warm soapy water to clean the carbon surfaces. Do
not use abrasive cloths or cleaners.
• Be sure all frame surfaces in contact with cables are protected. Cable
housing rubbing on carbon can wear over time.
• Be sure brake levers, handle bar ends and the fork crown do not contact
the frame at full rotation.
• Never clamp any part of a carbon frame in a bike stand or car rack.
• Always inspect your frame if you experience any chain suck. Intense
frames come equipped with steel chain suck plates but damage can still
be done in the event of chain suck.
• Always inspect your frame in full after a crash to be sure there is no
damage. Look for cracks, dents or loose fibers. If you discover damage
in any degree it’s best to have your frame inspected by a qualified
Intense Cycles dealer. Any direct impact to the frame can cause serious
structural damage.
• Use high grade waterproof grease on seat post, BB and head set bearing
contact areas with the carbon.
• Never ream or face a carbon frame.
• Be sure to follow all recommended torque settings.
