adjustment of components.

regular appropriate lubrication:
• Grease type lubrication:- bearings in head
stem, wheels, bottom bracket and pedals
(requires disassembly refer to your bicycle
retailer).
• Oil type lubrication:- Brake and derailleur
pivot points and jockey wheels, chain, free

For advice on appropriate special lubricants, ask
your bicycle retailer.
