Bicycle Care
To ensure safe riding conditions you must ensure your bike is properly maintained. You should follow
these basic guidelines and see your certified bicycle mechanic at regular intervals to ensure your bike
is safe for use.
1. Properly maintain batteries by keeping them fully charged when not in use.
2. Never immerse the bike or any components in water as the electrical system may be damaged.
3. Periodically check wiring and connectors to ensure there is no damage and the connectors are secure.
4. To clean, wipe the frame with a damp cloth soaked in a mild non-corrosive detergent mixture. Dry with
a cloth.
5. Store under shelter; avoid leaving it in the rain or exposed to corrosive materials. If exposed to rain, dry
your bicycle afterwards and apply anti-rust treatment to chain and other unpainted steel surfaces.
6. Riding on the beach or in coastal areas exposes your bicycle to salt which is very corrosive. Wash your
bicycle frequently and wipe or spray all unpainted parts with anti-rust treatment. Damage from corrosion
is not covered under warranty so special care should be given to extend the life of your bike when used
in coastal areas or areas with salty air or water.
7. If the hub and bottom bracket bearings have been submerged in water, they should be taken out and
re-greased. This will prevent accelerated bearing deterioration.
8. If the paint has become scratched or chipped in the metal, use touch up paint to prevent rust. Clear nail
polish canalso be used as a preventative measure.
9. Regularly clean and lubricate all moving parts, tighten components and adjust as required.
