Maintenance

Bicycles are technical yet sensitive creatures that need a little bit of

love, attention and care every now and then. Maintaining your bicycle

regularly will keep it riding (and riding well) for a lot longer and will

give you more range compared to a bike which has empty tires and

running brakes. It's a lot like maintaining a car – you check some

things on a daily and you take it to professional service for a check-up

and maintenance after a certain number of kilometres.

Take care of your bike and have the bike maintained regularly in every

3000 km or at least once a year. The actual needed maintenance

interval can vary depending on your riding habits, road quality and

weather conditions.

Maintaining your Ampler bike is just like maintaining a regular bicycle

and all professional bike shops can carry out the maintenance of our

bikes.

• Cleaning your bike will help to quality and keep the dirt and dust

from getting into the engine and bottom bracket.

• Use soap, water and a variety of sponges and brushes to thoroughly

clean the bike

• The power panel of the bike is washable and waterproof. Now and

then clean (non-metallic tool) and lubricate the charging port with a

multi-purpose oil (for example multi-spray).

• Avoid using pressure washers, as the pressure driven water will get

dirt, sand and dust particles inside tiny compartments, causing rust

and problems later down the line.

• Check the tyre pressure regularly. You can always check the recom-

mended tires pressure noted on the side walls of the tires.

• Keeping the tires inflated to the recommended pressure will keep

the battery range high, protect the rim and tire from damages.

• Look out for tire wear. Depending on how and where you ride your

bike, the tyres can wear at a different pace. If you see that the tread

looks worn out, change your tyres.

• If it gets icy, get some winter tyres. Make sure they properly fit your

bike before riding — you will find the correct tyre size from the

specifications.

• Check the chain tension – if it has slackened over time (it looks

saggy), get it adjusted. If you feel you are not right for the job, you

can easily get it done in your local bicycle shop.

• Replace he chain before the wear is reached to 0,75%

• Making sure your chain is lubed will prevent unexpected and prema-

ture wear to the drivetrain.

• If the chain feels a little dry, clean it with a rag and then add some

chain lubricant. Spin the pedals around a couple of times to spread

the lubricant evenly.

• A carbon belt drive does not need any oil, however needs to be

cleaned after riding in dirty conditions with water. You can apply a

thin coating of dry silicone spray to the tooth side of the belt if

necessary.
