• Grab one pedal and rock it toward and away from

the centerline of the E-Bike™; then do the same with

the other pedal. Does the bottom bracket feel loose?

If so, have your dealer check it.

• Take a look at the brake pads. Starting to look worn or not

hitting the wheel rim squarely? Time to have the

dealer adjust or replace them.

• Carefully check the control cables and cable housings.

Any rust? Kinks? Fraying? If so, have your dealer

replace them.

• Squeeze each adjoining pair of spokes on either side of

each wheel between your thumb and index finger. Do

they all feel about the same? If any feel loose, have your

dealer check the wheel runout and spoke tension.

• Check the frame, particularly in the area around all tube

joints, the handlebars, the stem, and the seatpost for

any deep scratches, cracks or discoloration. These are

signs of stress-caused fatigue and indicate that a part is

at the end of its useful life and needs to be replaced.

• Check to make sure that all parts and accessories are

still secure. Tighten any which are not.

WARNING:

Like any mechanical device, an E-Bike™ and its components

are subject to wear and stress. Different materials and

mechanisms wear at different rates and have different life

cycles. If a component’s life cycle is exceeded, the

component can suddenly and catastrophically fail, causing

serious injury or death to the rider. Scratches, cracks, fraying

and discoloration are signs of stress-caused fatigue and

indicate that a part is at the end of its useful life and needs to

be replaced.

As required:

• If either brake lever fails the mechanical saftey check,

adjust the brake lever free play as described in Chapter

Five. If the lever free play cannot be adjusted within

specification, have the brakes checked by your dealer.

• If the chain will not shift smoothly and quietly from gear

to gear, the derailleur is out of adjustment. The cause

may be as simple as cable stretch, in which case you

can compensate by turning the shifter or derailleur

cable adjusting barrel counterclockwise 1/2 turn. Try

shifting again. If 1/2 turn to a full turn of the cable

adjusting barrel does not cure the problem, see your

dealer.

Every 50 hours of riding:

• Take your E-Bike™ to your dealer for a complete

checkup.
