Maintenance

There is almost nothing unique about the care and maintenance of your Xootr Swift relative
to that of any high-quality bicycle. We highly recommend the informative website of
Sheldon Brown for general matters of bicycle care and maintenance:

WARNING:

Many bicycle service and repair tasks require special skills,

knowledge, and tools. Do not begin any service or maintenance tasks on your
bicycle if you have any concerns about your ability to complete them correctly.
Improper adjustment or service may result in damage to the bicycle and/or in

accident which could cause serious injury or death.

Maintenance Check List

In order to keep your Xootr Swift in top condition you should run a thorough maintenance
check frequently. This will ensure a longer component life and will maintain the riding ease
of your Xootr Swift.

General inspection should be done before each ride as follows:

1. Check for loose nuts and bolts.
2. Check for fork and frame damage.
3. Inspect brake pads for wear and replace when necessary.
4. Check for proper brake alignment.
5. Check for any worn or damaged parts and replace.
6. Look for loose spokes on the wheels. Check tires for glass, thorns or any other

sharp objects.

7. Check that all quick-release levers are securely fastened.
8. Make sure both wheels are properly aligned.
9. Keep the dérailleur in adjustment. Do not let the bike rest or fall on the dérailleur.
10. Keep tires inflated to pressure indicated on the tire wall.

Finish protection and maintenance

A damp cloth may be used to clean your bike. Avoid using aggressive cleaning solutions or
solvents. Plain water, or dish soap and water work well.

The aluminum and steel used in your Xootr Swift is resistant to corrosion in most
conditions; however, certain extreme environments such as ocean-side locations may cause
oxidizing. We recommend either maintaining a coat of wax or periodic polishing with a
non-abrasive pad (e.g., typical plastic dish cleaning pad

Front Wheel Installation

1. Remove the black hub protectors from each side of the front hub.
2. Remove the nut and one spring from the front wheel QR lever/skewer.
3. Slide the QR lever/skewer through the hub.
4. Install the spring, small end first and the nut removed in step 2. The nut should

just be started on the threads and not tightened yet.

5. Remove the plastic spacer, if present, from the tips of the front fork.
6. Open the front wheel QR lever. Seat the wheel axle in the slot on the tips of the

front fork. Make sure it is fully seated in the slot. You may need to unscrew the
QR lever a bit to extend its length enough to fit the axle in the slot. You may also
need to nudge open the brake calipers a bit to allow the tire to fit through the brake
pads.

7. Tighten the nut and close the quick-release lever with firm pressure (see Quick-

Release Lever Operations for full operation instructions). Make sure the front
wheel is centered properly between the fork blades.
