6.5.1 Cleandrive
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.
6.5.2 Lockshock
From time to time and particularly during periods of hot or abnormal weather, your Lockshock™
may require additional lubrication to prevent undesired noises whilst riding such as squeaking. The
Gocycle Lockshock™ is delivered pre-greased from the factory however certain riding conditions or
environments can, over time, remove some of this grease. Re-lubricating of the Lockshock™ should
be completed as part of your regular maintenance to reduce the likelihood of developing noises when
riding.
As part of regular maintenance or in the event that your Gocycle Lockshock™ develops a noise whilst
riding, the Lockshock™ can be lubricated using a suitable silicone lubricant. With the Gocycle
supported, remove the Lockshock pin and rotate the Lockshock™ so that it is pointing upwards. Be
sure to have a cloth ready to remove any excess silicone lubricant.
Spray a generous amount of silicone lubricant down into the end of the Lockshock™ and remove any
overspray or spillages with a cloth. Wait 5 minutes with the Lockshock™ in the upright position so
that the lubricant can disperse downwards. Re-insert the Lockshock plunger and Lockshock pin to
complete.
