Maintenance
QWIC advises you to regularly get a maintenance check-
up at your dealer.
QWIC advises you to submit your electric bicycle
to a mayor check-up at least once a year. The first
maintenance visit is recommended after 250 km or
after 3 months from purchasing. Additional service
would be advised when necessary. For example before
the cycling season starts or before a long cycling tour.
Please note that taking a check-up on a regular basis
will decrease the possibility of unnecessary damages
and costs!
Of course you can contribute to the top condition of
your bicycle as well. In the next sections we give you
some tips.

There are plenty of alternatives to be insured for
service-on-the-road. For just a small fee each year, you
will be insured against any future annoyances. On our
website you will find a list of possibilities.
General maintenance
• Check the tire tension and tire profile
• Check the brakes for wear and tear, adjust the
finetuning from time to time

a sponge when dirty
