SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE
Your CUBE dealer will have assembled and adjusted your CUBE EPO
pedelec ready for use when you come to collect it. Nevertheless, your
CUBE EPO pedelec needs regular servicing
(a) . Have your local CUBE
dealer do the scheduled maintenance work. This is the only way to
ensure that all components function safely and reliably for many
miles.
The bicycle will be due for its first service after 100 to 300 kilometres
(60 to 180 miles), three to six weeks or 5 to 15 hours of initial use. The
bedding in phase typically involves spokes slightly losing tension or
gears becoming out of adjustment, so there is every reason to have
your dealer service the CUBE EPO pedelec at this stage. This bedding
and settling in process is unavoidable. Therefore, remember to make
an appointment with your CUBE dealer for the rst inspection of your
new CUBE EPO pedelec. The rst service is very important for both
functioning and durability of your CUBE EPO pedelec.
The intended use of the CUBE EPO pedelec includes regular servicing
and the replacement of worn out parts in time, e.g. brake pads
(b)
or Bowden and brake cables (c) , and therefore has an inuence on
the warranty, as well. It is advisable to have your CUBE EPO pedelec
serviced regularly by your CUBE dealer after the bedding in phase.
If your bicycle does harder service, because you ride a great deal on
poor road surfaces, it will require correspondingly shorter service pe-
riods. The o-season during the winter months is a very good time
to take your CUBE EPO pedelec to your CUBE dealer for the annual
inspection, as they will have plenty of time for you and for servicing.
g
Servicing and repairs are jobs best left to your CUBE deal-
er. If you have your bicycle serviced by anyone else than
an expert, you run the risk that parts of your CUBE EPO
pedelec will fail. Risk of accident! When working on your
CUBE EPO pedelec restrict yourself to jobs for which you
are equipped e.g. with a torque wrench including bits
(d)
and have the necessary knowledge.
g
If a component needs to be replaced, make it a rule to only
use original spare parts
(e) . Wearing parts of other man-
ufactuers, e.g. brake pads or tyres that are not of identi-
cal size, may cause harm to the safety of your CUBE EPO
pedelec. Risk of accident!
i
For your own safety, bring your CUBE EPO pedelec to your
CUBE dealer for its rst inspection after 100 to 300 kilome-
tres (60 to 180 miles), 5 to 15 hours of initial use or three to
six weeks, at the very latest, however, after three months.
