1 Maintenance schedule

To prolong the life of your bike, you should keep and respect  

a maintenance schedule.

Before and after each ride

— Check the brakes. 

— Check the pressure in the tires and for any tears  

or foreign objects. 

— Check if the wheels are securely fastened. 

— Check if the stem and handlebars are securely fastened. 

— Check the suspension forks to ensure proper functioning. 

— Always store your bike in a clean, dry place.

Each month

— Check for a loose stem, handlebars or seat post. 

— Inspect the cassette and chain. 

— Inspect the cables, hose, and shifters, and adjust if necessary. 

— Check the derailleurs and add grease if necessary. 

— Check the wear and tear of the brake pads/callipers. 

— Check if the wheels are deformed, and check the tension  

in the spokes.

that will need to be controlled regularly. Please refer to the 

supplier’s guidelines and check the braking surface regularly  

for wear indicators. 

Every six months
