Maintenance works
5.1
Frame
The frame is powder-coated. This means it has a hard coat of paint. To prevent rust
from forming, it is important to clean the frame regularly. If you want to preserve the
frame with grease, use acid-free products only. You can touch up small areas of
damage with paint. Your dealer will have the correct paint to use.
5.2
Wheels, tyres
Check the wheel rims and tyres regularly for damage (nicks, cuts, cracks and bulges).
NB: damaged rims and tyres may lead to accidents! Tyre pressure is 1.5 bar/22psi
(remember that pressure increases with high temperatures). Your BERG Freestyler will
run smoothly and freely when the tyres are at the correct pressure. When the tyre
pressure is too low, the tyres puncture more easily and there will be excessive wear.
When the tyre pressure is too high, the tyre may pop off the rim. This can be
dangerous. Tyres should not come into contact with oil, grease and fuel. Make sure
that the tyre valve caps are always in place on the valves.
