Owner`s manual

Correct routine maintenance of your new bike will ensure smooth running - Longer
lasting components - Safer riding - Lower running costs
Every time you ride your bicycle, its condition changes. The more you ride, the more frequently maintenance will be required.
We recommend you spend a little time on regular maintenance tasks. The following schedules are a useful guide and by
referring to Part 6 of this manual, you should be able to accomplish most tasks. If you require assistance, we recommend you
see a bicycle specialist.
Schedule 1 - Lubrication
Note: The frequency of maintenance should increase with use in wet or dusty conditions. Do not over
lubricate - remove excess lubricant to prevent dirt build up. Never use a degreaser to lubricate your chain (WD-40™)
