Maintenance
Clean the bike - dirt is the enemy of a smooth running bike and can
eventually cause parts to seize in addition to causing corrosion.
Carry out regular cleaning and corrosion protection of all parts of
your A-bike Plus.
We recommend washing the A-bike Plus with a gentle flow of
water, or from a bucket, using a damp cloth. This is also a great
opportunity to visually inspect your bike.
Inspect the bike for damage
Damage to parts can result in sudden failure of that part. The bike
should be regularly inspected, looking for cracks, discolouration of
material, scratches and loose fastenings. If damage is found you
should contact the vendor and seek advice before attempting to ride
the bike.
Check your brakes - you should be able to stop the wheel from
turning without the brake lever touching the handle grip. Test this
when stood by the bike, NOT while riding it! If you need to adjust it
look at the Repairs section of this user guide.
Clean the chain and lubricate regularly, this is vital to reducing
wear to the bike and efficiency.
