BRAKE WEAR AND CARE
STORING YOUR BIKE AND BATTERY
Ensure the alignment of the brake pads with the disc and conrm that the
wheel is rmly pushed back. Proper alignment guarantees quiet operation
and normal pad wear. To extend the lifespan of brake components, prevent
contamination of pads and discs with greasy substances.
Regularly check the condition of your cables and the wear of your pads.
For enhanced ergonomics and safety, adjust brake levers to align naturally
with the user's arms.
WARNING
If any of the below is not within your skill set we
recommend taking your bike to an E-bike specialist
or professional cycle mechanic.
Brakes are an integral part of the operation of your bike and must be properly
maintained, adjusted and replaced if necessary.
LUBRICATION
Your bicycle has many moving parts that are constantly exposed to the
elements. Cleaning and lubricating these parts will keep them running
smoother and longer. The following parts will need regular lubrication.

Visually inspect the chain and all mechanical parts daily and lubricate as
necessary. Using standard chain lube periodically will keep your chain clean,
quite and functioning properly. Wipe away excess lube, grease and oil to
prevent dirt build up.
• Brake arch pivot
• Freewheel
Always store your Project BMX and battery indoors in a dry space, away from
heat, hot surfaces or ame sources and out of direct sunlight. Avoid magnetic
objects and ensure the room is ventilated.
