If your Gocycle has water on it, we recommend that you wipe it dry as soon as possible with a
towel or dry cloth.
The less you expose your Gocycle to moisture or water, the longer it will last.
Keep your Gocycle inside your house, flat or garage.
If you wish to clean the Gocycle, we recommend that you use a damp towel or cloth and mild
liquid soap. First wipe down all areas with a damp towel, then wipe dry with a dry towel.
To clean the rim and tyre, remove the PitstopWheel, soak the rim and tyre in a bucket of soapy
water and then dry with a towel.
WARNING! Keep your Gocycle clean and dry at all times, where possible. Never spray the Gocycle
with a hose or high-pressure cleaning system. Never use polishes, waxes or solvents to clean your
Gocycle.

Lubrication
There is no need to regularly inspect,
clean and lubricate the internal
components of the Cleandrive
®
The gearbox, rear hub, hub bearings and chain drive system (Cleandrive) are lubricated during
production, and unless the Gocycle is regularly exposed to a high-humidity, corrosion-enhancing
environment, these components will last the lifetime of the product.
7.5
Checking for Cracking and Fatigue Failures
As with a conventional bicycle, your Gocycle will not last forever. It is a mechanical item that under
normal riding will be stressed, and eventually the parts will fatigue, cracks will develop and it will
become unsafe to ride. The number of miles of riding a bicycle will endure cannot be predicted since
there are many variables that affect product life including:
Rider weight
Riding style
Tyre pressure and type
Roughness of the road
Whether or not the bicycle has been crashed or damaged in transit
