2 - CLEANING YOUR BIKE

After your ride, wash your bike with soapy water (liquid dish soap is recommended for its ability to remove grease 

without damaging the bike). Avoid using high-pressure washers if possible. If you have to use one, avoid directing 

the stream directly at the joints and bearings (for full-suspension models).

Dry your bike with a soft cloth in order to avoid rust and corrosion. While carefully drying your entire bike, you will 

also be able to inspect all the different parts and detect any potential problems.

Before storing your bike in a clean and dry place, lubricate the drivetrain parts with an appropriate product. 

You can also take this time to check the brakes, see if the wheels are damaged and check for any movement.

 

3 - WORN PARTS

Always keep an eye on component parts that receive a lot of wear and tear (especially the brakes) in order to avoid 

any risks. If you have any doubts, you can check the manual from the component manufacturer or check with your 

Lapierre authorized dealer. It’s better to prevent than to repair, so never wait until the last minute!

List of consumable parts:

 

- Braking components (pads, rims)

 

- Tyres, inner tubes, rim strips

 

- Cables and casing

 

- Transmission parts (chain, chainwheels, cassette, bottom bracket)

 

- Shock struts and bushings

 

- Full suspended frames pivot bearings.
