Caring for your eBike
Tips for proper eBike care
-
Clean your eBike regularly
Ideally, you should clean your eBike after every ride so the dirt does not become engrained. -
Remove the electronics before cleaning
Before cleaning, you should remove the battery and display to protect them. If electronic parts are permanently mounted on your eBike, you can cover them with a cloth or film. -
Use a sponge or brush
Never use a steam jet or high-pressure cleaner, as water can penetrate sensitive components such as the drive. -
Choose a suitable cleaning agent
Bike shampoos and cleaning agents from your dealer are ideal for cleaning your eBike and are less aggressive. -
Be careful with the disk brake
The disk brake is particularly sensitive to liquid and grease. Therefore, when greasing the chain, make sure that no lubricant comes into contact with the disk brake. -
After cleaning, carry out a function test
Is the battery correctly attached? Does the drive work flawlessly? Does the system respond correctly to buttons being pressed? -
Check the components
In between cleaning, you should also regularly check the brakes, lights, screws, and tire pressure. If there are signs of wear and tear, the components need servicing.
