CHAIN / BELT DRIVE
CHAIN
Chain care
Chains are wear parts, however, the rider can
affect their service life. Make sure you re-
gularly grease the chain, particularly before
riding in the rain.
• Clean your chain with a dry cloth from time
to time.
• Apply a suitable lubricant from a specialist
shop to the chain links.
Chain wear
Chains of derailleur gears can often reach
their wear limit after approx. 1,000 to 3,000
km. You should therefore have your spe-
cialist dealer replace the chain at regular
intervals.
Checking the chain tension
For bicycles with hub gear and without
additional chain tensioner, the chain tension
needs to be checked at regular intervals
and potentially readjusted by the specialist
dealer.

REPLACING the chain
• The chain should only be replaced by a
competent person. If required, your dealer
can fit the chain suitable for your E-Bike.
DANGER!
A chain that has not been fitted
or tensioned correctly can come
off or tear and cause a fall.
Ask you specialist dealer to re-
place the chain for you.
BELT DRIVE
If your E-Bike is fitted with a belt drive,
please observe the separately supplied
Gates manual.
