It is advisable to use specific oil for the chain and the derailleur. Grease
must be used for the other components.
III.
Regular checks
Check the tightness of the bolts: lever, crank, pedals, stems. The
tightening torques to be applied are as follows:
COMPONENTS
Pedals on crank arms
Crank arm on bottom
bracket
Steering tightness
Headset tightening
Brake lever
Brake calipers
Seat
Seat post clamp
Wheel
The other tightening torques depend on the size of the nuts: M4: 2.5 to
4.0 Nm, M5: 4.0 to 6.0 Nm, M6: 6.0 to 7.5 Nm. Tighten the screws
evenly to the required torque.
Regularly check the tyres and in particular the tread of the rear tyre:
wear, cuts, cracks, pinching. Replace the tyre if necessary. Check the
wheel rims for excessive wear, warping, denting, cracks...
IV.
Servicing
For safety reasons and to keep the components in good working order,
you should have your bicycle regularly serviced by your retailer. Your
bicycle should also undergo regular maintenance by a qualified
technician.
