ADJUSTING YOUR BIKE
TYRES
Check tyre pressures regularly and ensure that the pressure range is between 25psi and 40psi.
CHAIN
The chain should be checked, adjusted and lubricated as shown on the Maintenance Schedule to ensure proper operation
and prevent excessive wear. If the chain becomes badly worn or is poorly adjusted (i.e., if it is too loose or too taught), it
could damage the drive train or transmission of the bike.
Chain tension should be just enough to remove any slack from the chain but loose enough that pushing moderately on the
middle section of the chain does not cause deflection of more than 10mm (shown below). Refer to your dealer if chain
needs replacing.
To adjust chain tension:
1. Loosen axle nut on each side of rear wheel.
2. Tighten/loosen 10mm on axle adjuster nuts (circled above) to achieve desired tension.
3. Ensure rear wheel is in-line with bike.
4. Tighten axle nuts.
The chain may be lubricated using any good quality silicone chain lube.
no more than 10mm
