Adjusting the brakes:
The Zephyr comes with disc brakes both front and rear. These are checked and set up before the bike is
dispatched but you must check that the brakes are working properly before you ride the bike.
See the maintenance manual for help on how to you adjust your brakes, but if you aren’t able to manage
this yourself, you should take it to your local bike shop and have them adjust them for you. Obviously you
would have to pay for this service.
Discs brakes do require a certain amount of bedding in, so be aware of this when you ride the bike for the
first few miles.
Essential maintenance:
See the “Maintenance Manual” for the full details of how to look after your bike.
The Zephyr is a low maintenance bike, however it is essential that you carry out some maintenance regu-
larly to ensure that your bike is both safe and going to last for years to come.
You must check your spokes as outlined earlier.
You must regularly check and tighten as necessary ALL nuts/bolts/fixings.
You must ensure that the handlebars are tight, if the handlebars are not checked and they work loose,
they could move suddenly and unexpectedly.
You must check that the saddle clamp is sufficiently tight and also that the saddle itself is properly secured
to the post. The bolt securing the seat to the post is on the underside of the saddle.
You must monitor the cranks, if they work loose or there is movement in the bottom bracket, do not contin-
ue to ride the bike until the issue has been resolved.
Failure to carry out essential maintenance on your bike on a regular basis could result in an injury,
for which Woosh Bikes Ltd will not be held liable.
Please ensure this is done to ensure your safety.
