Follow these basic guidelines and see a certied, reputable bike mechanic at regular
intervals to ensure your bike is safe for use. Performing regular maintenance on your
NewGen 345-E can improve the bike’s riding efciency and extend the components’
lifespan. When carrying out any maintenance on your 345-E make sure the bike is turned
off, is securely positioned and the battery is removed. This will reduce the potential for
damaging the bike or injuring yourself.
BRAKES
GEARS
Brakes are one of the most important parts of your bike and require regular attention. Your
345-E is tted with mechanical disc brakes.
Mechanical brakes do not require specialist equipment to carry out adjustments or
maintenance, however if you are not comfortable carring out the maintenance yourself
we recommend it is carried out by a professional. Most local bike shops will be able to
perform this service for you. After a while (depending on use) the pads in the calipers will
become worn down and should be replaced. Replacements can be found at most local
bike shops.
Disc brakes generally take a little time to settle in and it’s possible they may squeak a little
on your rst few rides. This is normal and not a cause for concern, but if it persists please
contact us or speak to a bike mechanic.
Your 345-E has a single-speed transmission and therefore should not need any adjustment.
However over time the chain, chainring and rear sprocket will wear and may need
replacing - ask your mechanic to check their condition when you have the bike serviced.
To prolong the life of the chain, chainring and rear sprocket, add a small amount of
specialist lubricant or light oil to the chain. Please note that adding too much, too often
will only collect dirt, accelerate wear and increase the chance of dirtying your clothes.
