changing gears. Lubricate the chain every 100-200 km or when the chain is dry or dirty. Use
a specific lubricant for bicycle chains, preferably one with a wax or Teflon base. Apply the
lubricant to the inside of the chain while turning the pedals backwards. Remember to clean
the chain before applying the lubricant for best results.
- When greasing the chain, make sure that the brake discs are not soiled, and that the
sprocket is not engaged. Spray where the chain slides smoothly and wipe off excess
lubricant with a cloth. Only use specific chain lubricant.
The proper bicycle chain tension is the tension at which you can move the chain slightly
-
vertically between approximately 1 cm and 3 cm without it being too slack or too tight.
To adjust the gears on a bicycle, follow these steps:
Make sure that the bicycle is horizontal and stable.
1.
2. Shift to the lowest gear on both the front and rear derailleur.

To adjust the brakes on a bicycle, follow these steps:
First, locate each of the brakes that are attached to the handlebars of the bicycle, where the
front brake is located on the left handlebar lever and the rear brake is located on the right
handlebar lever.
Ensure that the brake pads are correctly aligned with the braking surface of the rim.
1.
2. Adjust the brake cable tension using the adjusting screw on the brake or on the brake
lever.
3. Check that the brakes apply correctly and that the pads make even contact with the rim
when the levers are actuated.
4. Regarding the replacement of friction components, such as brake pads, it is recommended
to replace them when they are worn and no longer provide good braking performance.
Regularly inspect your brake pads and replace them if they are worn beyond the indicator
or if they are no longer thick enough.
If you are unsure or unfamiliar with how to adjust the gears, it is recommended that you take
your electric bike to a specialist repair shop.
We recommend that you have your vehicle serviced and maintained once every 6 months by
a repair shop.
