stabilization wheels. Loosening and consequent falling of the wheels resulting in injury or even death may occur.
The wheel is provided with a counter-acting rear brake in order to allow the young cyclist to brake more easily and efficiently.
Teaching a child how to brake is necessary for future use of the bike. For that reason, please devote sufficient time for learning so
that you can be sure that the child is able to stop the bike safely. The bike is put in motion forward by the movement of the legs
and the front derailleur cranks clockwise. In order to stop it, you need to depress a front derailleur crank in the opposite direction,
i.e. anti-clockwise. Slow blocking of the ride up to a complete stop of the bike will occur.
SPRING-LOADED FORK
If you wish to maintain perfect operation of the spring-loaded fork, regular maintenance, in particular of the friction surfaces
between the inner and outer tubes, is necessary. The dust cover, preventing the access of dirt to the friction surfaces may not be
damaged and should protect the entire friction area. When washing the fork, it is advisable to use a fine brush and warm, soapy
water.
Caution: Water may not penetrate between the inner and outer tubes of the fork during washing. Just dirt and water have
unfavourable effects on the components inside the fork.
FORK LUBRICATION
There is a spring assembly with a layer of lubricant in the new spring-loaded fork. This layer of lubricant should be maintained
continuously. Lubricate the fork always after riding in a wet environment (mud, wet sand, rain). If you do not have experience with
the maintenance and repairs of forks, leave service to qualified specialists.
COMPLETELY SPRING-LOADED FRAME
Maintenance: after riding in muddy terrain, it is necessary to clean all movable frame components; by doing this, you will
extend their service life. If some components become worn, carry out replacement in order to avoid damage to the frame itself.
Remember to check tightening of bolts of individual parts and to lubricate the sliding bearings of the springing unit.
LUBRICATION
Your bicycle consists in many movable components that are exposed to natural effects continuously. Cleaning and lubricating such
components will extend their service life.
The following components require regular lubrication: - Chain
- Front derailleur
- Rear derailleur
- Gear-changing control cables
- Brake jaws, cables and brake control
- Spring-loaded fork
- Spring unit
