Maintenance Tips
- Keep tire pressure checked weekly for efficient range, smoother ride, and fewer flats.
-
Charge battery properly (48V/500Wh)—avoid full depletion and store at 30–80% for longer lifespan.
- Clean and lubricate drivetrain regularly (Shimano 8-speed chain, cassette) especially after wet or dusty rides.
- Inspect hydraulic disc brakes (Tektro) often and replace pads when braking feels weak.
- Tighten critical bolts monthly (stem, handlebars, seatpost, wheels) for safety at higher e-bike speeds.
- Wipe down frame after rides to prevent dirt buildup and corrosion, especially around battery mount.
- Check torque sensor + pedal assist response—smooth engagement ensures efficient motor performance.
- Inspect tires for cuts or punctures (27.5" puncture-protected commuter tires) before long rides.
- Keep electrical connections clean and dry (display, wiring, charging port).
- Schedule a full professional tune-up every 6–12 months for motor, drivetrain, and brake calibration.
