4. Routine Maintenance Check and Lubrication
WARNING! As with all mechanical components, your bicycle is subjected to
wear and stress. Different materials and components may react to wear or fatigue in
different ways. If the design life of a component has been exceeded it may suddenly
fail, possibly causing injuries to the rider. Any types of cracks, scratches, or change
of coloring in highly stressed areas indicate that the life of the component has been
reached and it should be replaced immediately.
Always inspect your bicycle before every ride.
WARNING! Use only genuine replacement parts, particularly for safety-critical
components, installed by a professional bicycle mechanic. To keep your electric
bicycle functioning well, the following routine maintenance lubrication is necessary
