3. Maintenance
3.1 General
for example, store it somewhere dry, at a uniform
temperature.
Before putting your bike away, pump up both tyres
according to the recommended inflation pressure.
Check the websites of the relevant component
manufacturers to find out the most important
points about this subject.
Parts subject to wear
Your bike is a technical product that needs to be
checked regularly.
A large number of parts experience considerable
natural wear depending on their use.
Get your bike checked regularly and get worn
parts replaced by your approved O2Feel reseller.
General instructions for use
Tyres
Tyres experience natural wear. This wear depends
on the use of the bike, and can be affected
significantly by the user.
Do not brake so that the wheels stop completely.
Regularly check your tyre pressure. The maximum
and minimum inflation pressures are usually
indicated on the side of the tyre.
If necessary, pump up your tyres until they are at
the indicated pressure. This will reduce wear.
Avoid exposing the tyres to harmful elements, such
as sunlight, petrol, oil etc.
Rims with rim brakes
The brake lining and rim are subject to natural
wear, due to the combined action of the rim
brake and the rim. The presence of small cracks
or crookedness when inflating indicate advanced
wear. Rims fitted with wear indicators mean that it
is easy to see how worn the rim is.
Check how worn your rims are regularly.
Brake linings
Brake linings for rim brakes and disc brakes
become worn according to the bike’s usage. If the
bike is used to cycle on mountainous terrain or for
sporting purposes, the brake linings may need to
be changed more regularly. Regularly check how
worn the brake linings are and, if necessary, have
them replaced by your approved O2Feel reseller.
Do not allow any cleaning product or oil to come
into contact with the brake linings, brake discs or
braking surfaces on the rim. If this does happen, it
will hinder the performance of your brakes.
Do not use a powerful jet of water or a pressure
washer for cleaning. If a jet of water is too
powerful, it could get into the bearings and dilute
the lubricant causing increased friction. The result
of this is that rust will form and the bearings will be
damaged.
Never clean your bike with:
•
acid solutions,
•
greases,
•
hot oil,
•
brake cleaning products (apart from for brake
discs)
•
liquids containing solvents.
These substances attack the surfaces of the bike
and encourage wear and tear.
After use, dispose of lubricants and cleaning and
maintenance products according to rules for
protecting the environment. Do not dispose of
these substances with household waste, in drains
or in nature.
Your bike will only work properly and last if you
look after it.
Clean your bike regularly with a sponge and
hot water, applying small quantities of cleaning
products.
When you do this, make sure there are no cracks,
grooves or distortions anywhere on your bike.
Replace faulty parts before using your bike.
In particular, make sure you regularly deal with
any parts affected by corrosion, using protective
and maintenance products, especially in winter
or in aggressive environments, such as by the sea.
Failure to do this, the corrosion (rust) could spread
more extensively and faster on your bike.
Regularly clean all galvanized and chrome parts,
as well as stainless steel components.
If you do not use your bike for a while, in winter
