6.6 Wheels and tyres
Wheels are one of the most stressed components of your
vehicle. They contact the road; they provide propulsion and
they absorb the road bumps. Due to the heavy use, they
should be regularly checked. In case of radial or axial play or
broken spokes, the wheels should be repaired or trued by an
authorised Klever dealer.
For the replacement of a tyre, you have to remove the
wheel from your E-bike. Removal and installation of
the wheels, is better left to the workshop of your Klever
dealer. Nevertheless, in case of a puncture or in case of
transportation of your Klever E-bike you may want to remove
the wheels yourself. In that case take the steps as described
below.
Removal of the rear wheel
• Shift the chain to the smallest sprocket on the cassette.
• Turn off the BIACTRON-system of your Klever E-bike and
remove the battery pack.
• Loosen the bolt of the mounting bracket of the motor
connector (cable guide) on the inside of the left-hand chain
stay with a 4 mm. Allen key (image 6.15). Disconnect the
plugs of the motor connector.
• Loosen the anti-turn washer behind the LH-side axle nut
with a 3 mm. Allen key (image 6.16).
• Loosen the axle nuts on either side of the motor with a 19
mm. wrench (image 6.17).
• Now pull the wheel carefully out of the dropout, while
pivoting the rear derailleur and the derailleur’s pulley
backwards.
• Put the rear wheel aside and block the brake pads of the
disc-brake by inserting the enclosed pad separator into the
calliper (image 6.18). This prevents accidental compression
of the pads by unintended actuation of the lever while the
disc rotor is being removed.
• Now you can replace the tyre or inner tube of the rear
wheel and/or mend it.
• Assembly of the rear wheel is done in reverse order.
• After having removed the pad separator, make sure to
insert the disc carefully between the brake pads during
assembly.
Please note! ! The precise adjustment of the derailleur
and shifter is rather difficult and should better be done by
an experienced mechanic. In case you have any problems
adjusting the shifter and derailleur, please contact your
local Klever dealer.
The chain should be cleaned and greased regularly (especially after
riding in the rain). So, it runs as quietly as possible, the friction losses
are as low as possible, and the lifetime is maximised. Clean the
chain regularly with a clean cotton cloth and lubricate it afterwards.
Some minutes after you have oiled the chain, rub it with the cloth
to remove superfluous oil from the outer surface. Since the chain is
one of the bike parts that wears out, it should be replaced if worn. A
worn chain has poor shifting characteristics and leads to increased
wear of the chain wheel and the sprockets of the cassette.
Please note! The control of the chain wear should be carried
out at the dealer’s workshop. They have the proper tools to
measure the wear and replace the chain.
Additional information on rear derailleur and shifter, their
adjustment you will find in the manuals of the suppliers of
these components.
6.5 Lighting
The lighting of your 25 km/u E-bike corresponds with the Belgian
& Dutch Road Traffic Act; it has an official mark: indicated by
the letter K. The lighting is supplied by the battery power of the
vehicle. The headlight is a LED with high output and stand light
function (image 6.13). The tail light is a bright LED too with stand
light function (image 6.14).
In case of lighting failure please verify that the light switch on the
display is switched to “On”, check all contacts at headlight and tail
light. Check all cables for damage. If you don’t find any errors, you
should be looking for repair at an authorised dealer immediately.
Please note! A non-functioning light is illegal and
endangers your life on the road. E-bikes without lights are
easily overlooked in the dark. You run the risk of serious
accidents.
More information on the headlight and the taillight can be
found in the enclosed supplier’s manual.
