IMPORTANT: The brake disks and pads of an Winther Kangaroo with
motor must cope with extra strain as they can reach higher speeds.
They must therefore be checked regularly.
Please keep an eye on the battery. Be sure to charge the battery as
often as possible as this will extend the lifetime of the battery.
Also note that the Winther Kangaroo with motor in particular requires
more frequent service and should be better protected from the
weather when parked outdoor long-term. We recommend using a
garage cover that covers the entire bike.
If any spokes are broken or damaged replace all of them at once. If
only a few broken or damaged spokes are replaced, the load may
have aected the other spokes already, and they may break shortly
after. You should therefore always make sure to replace all the spokes
at the same time.
Do remember to have the rear wheel of the bike tightened after
the first four weeks of riding or after approx. 200-300 kilometres,
depending on which occurs first, as the spokes during the first
period are stretched during setting o and braking.
The hood can be washed using water, detergent and a soft brush or
sponge while it is still on the trike. Do not machine wash as this may
damage the hood.
Remember that the hood top is rainproof but not waterproof. We
recommend storing the bike under cover, e.g., under a waterproof
garage cover. You can extend the hood top’s lifetime by avoiding
leaving the bike in direct sunlight for longer periods or by using a
garage cover for protection.
