Pedals
The two pedals are marked with an L or an R at the screw retained end. The pedal marked with R needs to be screwed into
the right crank, and then tightened clockwise. The same needs to be done with the other pedal on the opposite side of the
crank, which has to be tightened counter-clockwise.
In the case of a Supra, assembling is accomplished with the help of an Allen key (see picture). Make sure that the right pedal
is mounted on the right side.
4.8
Pedal Cranks and Bearings
Cranks connect the pedals to the bottom bracket, and enable the drive through the interaction of these components when you
ride a bicycle.
Pedal cranks may become loose, therefore the correct positioning of the crank should be checked on a regular
basis. Hold both crank arms with both hands and move the crank back and forth. If you find out that they wobble,
this is means there is some damage. Even bottom brackets may wear out after a certain period of time. If you hear
a cracking noise in the bottom bracket, have the bottom bracket repaired by a specialist, and have the ball bearings
replaced as well.

Derailleur
For the Woombikes 4,5,6, we use a high-quality 8-speed micro-shift rotational handle as the gear shift. You can change
gears with it. After some time of using it, an adjustment might be necessary.
Derailleur
The Woombikes 4, 5, 6 use a high-quality derailleur, the
Microshift RD-
M45S
. Normally, the setting of the derailleur has already been done before
delivery.
If there are any problems with the gears due to an accident or
another occurrence, we’ll ask you to take the wheel either to a
specialist, or to repair it yourself in case you are skilled enough to
do some repairs using the SRAM product manual.

Bicycle Chain
The bike chain is subject to heavy strain, and therefore has to have a certain
tension. If the chain is hanging loose or there is a creaking in the bottom
bracket bearing due to too much tension, tension can be optimized by means of horizontal moving of the rear wheel. (see
image on the following page)
The chain must be
regularly cleaned and greased
. Clean the chain first by using an oily piece of cloth, and then
oil the clean chain with a suitable lubricant.
