HYDRAULIC BRAKES
The brake pads are worn over time. The hydraulic brake will auto-adjust to compensate
as the brake pads are wearing down.
NOISE FROM BRAKES
- The brake disc needs cleaning.
- You need to clean or sand the brake pads to remove impurities.
- The brake pads are worn and must be replaced.
THE BRAKES ARE NOT WORKING
- The bike has been turned upside down. Solve this by placing the bike down on both
wheels. Press the brake levers several times until the brakes work again normally.
- The brake system has lost uid, or air has entered the brake system. We recommend
taking your bike to a bike repair shop. At own risk there are guides and equipment to
repair at home.
INSPECTING THE TRUENESS OF THE WHEELS
Over the lifetime of the bike, the wheels may begin to run out of true.
To check the trueness of a wheel, lift the e-bike and spin the wheel. If the wheel wobbles
from side to side, then the wheel is out of true and will need repairing.
Special tools are required for repair. We recommend that the wheels be trued by a qualied
repair technician. Contact your local retailer for more information on wheel repairs.
INSPECTING THE WHEEL BEARINGS
Over the lifetime of the bike, the wheel bearings may become worn and will need servicing.
To check, grab the tyre of either the front or rear wheel while holding the bike securely.
Vigorously move the tyre from side to side. If the wheel moves at the wheel hub (the centre
of the wheel), the bearing may be worn.
Special tools are required for repair. We recommend that the bearings be replaced by a
qualied repair technician. Contact your local retailer for more information on wheel repairs.
REMOVING A WHEEL
Release the wheel bolts on each side of the wheel.
Note: Pay attention to the position of the washers when you remove them.
Mount the wheel and washers in the same order and orientation as you remove them.
