NOTES ON THE PROPER CARE AND INSPECTION OF YOUR BIKE
STORAGE AND SAFEKEEPING OF YOUR BIKE
We advise that you store your bike in a dry place that can be locked securely. Ensure that the storage place has sufficient air circulation as well. Please
consider the following tips on storage:
NEILPRYDE Frame:
Bottle cage bolts 4.5 Nm
Replaceable derailleur dropout 2 Nm
NEILPRYDE seat post clamp Diablo 8 Nm
Nazaré 10 Nm
Burasl 6 Nm
Zephyr 6 Nm
NEILPRYDE Nazaré Seatpost 6 Nm
Unless a different specification is marked on the seat post or stem, or specified in the manual by the manufacturer,
you should use the following torque settings:
Stem
M5 bolts 4.5 – 5.5 Nm
M6 bolts 8 – 9.6 Nm
Adjusting bolts with Ahead stems 0.5 – 2 Nm
Seat post
Clamping the saddle at seat post head:
Seat posts with single bolt 20 – 24 Nm
Seat posts with two bolts in line 6 – 9 Nm
Seat posts with two bolts side-by-side in direction of motion 2 – 14 Nm
- Inner tubes will slowly lose air pressure over time, even if the bike is not used for a long time. A bike that is left standing on deflated tires for extended periods will suffer damage
to its tire structure. Therefore, if you do not plan to use your bike for any extended period, you should hang the bike on a wall when you store it. If you cannot do this then you
must be sure to check the tire pressure often and re-inflate them when necessary.
- Clean your bike before you store it, and take steps to prevent corrosion.
- Allow any moisture that could have gotten into the tube to evaporate. To do this, you should dismount the saddle, and then spray a small amount of atomized oil inside the seat
tube. Do not do this if the tube is made from carbon fiber.
- Set the gears so that they are on the lowest setting, i.e. on the smallest sprocket and chain ring. This will help to relax the springs and cables.
