3. Looking After Your Byocycle Cont.
3.8 Mechanical Maintenance
All bicycles require maintenance to their mechanical parts, there is no set time to do this
as riding style and conditions will effect the wear life of the bicycle components.
Components that will require regular maintenance and possible replacement are:
• Gear cable
• Brake cables
• Sprockets
• Spokes
• Nuts and bolts
• Brake pads
If there is any doubt about the condition of these items, please seek help from you
ByoCycle specialist.
3.9 Tyre Maintenance
Tyres take a lot of punishment and should be inspected regularly. When inspecting your
tyres you should look out for the following:
• Any cuts in the tyre from sharp objects.
• Any debris embedded into the tyre.
• Any cracking in the tyre walls.
• Any bulges or parts of the tyre that are misshaped.
3.7 Water Resistance
Your ByoCycle is designed to be ridden in all weather conditions, this includes wet
weather. The bicycle and it’s electrical components are splash resistant. However leaving
your bicycle to endure the elements, without appropriate cover or protection, will cause
corrosion, especially in coastal areas where salt and grit is most common. Negligence is
not covered under the warranty.
WARNING! Failure to properly look after your tyres could result in the tyre failing without warning,
in the worst cases, this can cause the rider to have an accident, resulting in serious injury to the
rider and other fellow road users.
i
Tyres will also wear through use, this will result in a ‘at top’ to the tyre, in the event of this
happening the tyre is beyond its useful life and needs replacing.
WARNING! Do not submerge your motor, controller, throttle, LED display, battery or wiring loom
in water.
