Maintenance
Your bicycle requires regular maintenance for your safety but also to
prolong its useful life. It is important to check the mechanical elements
periodically in order that worn-out parts or those showing signs of wear
are replaced if necessary.
When replacing a component, it is important to use original brand parts
in order to preserve the bicycle's performance and reliability. Ensure
that appropriate spare parts are used for tyres, inner tubes, gear
system components and the various components of the braking
system.
The user is responsible should they use parts different from the original
parts.
WARNING:
always remove the battery before carrying out
maintenance.
I.
Cleaning
To avoid corrosion of the bicycle, it should be regularly rinsed in fresh
water, especially if it has been exposed to sea air.
It should be cleaned with a sponge, a bowl of warm soapy water and a
hosepipe (without pressure).
WARNING:
be especially careful not to use a high
pressure water jet cleaner.
II.
Lubrication
Lubrication is essential on the various components that move, in order
to avoid corrosion. Regularly grease the chain, brush the sprockets and
chainrings and periodically trickle a few drops of lubricant into the brake
and derailleur cable sheaths.
We recommend starting by cleaning and drying the components to be
lubricated.
