Regular and proper upkeep of your new bike means:

• Smooth Running

• Longer lasting components 

• Safer Riding 

• Cost savings

Routine bicycle maintenance is an essential component of riding. The condition of your 
bicycle changes every time it is used, meaning more frequent maintenance is necessary 
the more you ride your bicycle. The tables listed below outline the recommendations for 
servicing your bicycle. By referring to these and the information in Part 5 of this manual, 
you should be able to complete most of your bicycle maintenance yourself.  
Contact your specialist bicycle dealer if you require further assistance.

Note: Increase the regularity of maintenance the more you ride and use in wet  
or dusty conditions. 
Take care not to over lubricate – excess lubricant should be removed to prohibit dirt build up.

WARNING: 

Always seek expert advice for any maintenance requirements you feel unable 
to complete. You run the risk of potentially damaging your bicycle or yourself 
from falling if your bike is not correctly serviced or adjusted.
