- The duration of the components is variable based on the conditions of use,
frequency and quality of maintenance. For proper component maintenance,
it is necessary to frequently perform the cleaning and lubrication operations,
especially under conditions of heavy use (e.g. each time after washing the
bicycle, after use in wet conditions, on dusty or muddy roads etc.).
- Check chapter 9 to determine the frequency with which you should have
maintenance performed on your components by a specialised mechanic: Period
maintenance.
- Dirt seriously damages the bicycle and its components. Wash, clean and dry
your bicycle carefully after use.
- Never spray your bicycle with water under pressure. Pressurized water, even
form the nozzle of a small garden hose, can pass under seals and enter your
Campagnolo components, thereby affecting its operation. Wash your bicycle
and Campagnolo components by wiping them down with water and neutral
soap.
- Check that any holes on the bottom bracket shell are unobstructed and allow
water infiltrating into the frame to drain.
WARNING!
Salty environments (such as winter roads or roads near the sea) may
lead to galvanic corrosion of most of the bicycle's exposed components.
To prevent damage, malfunctions and accidents, rinse, dry and carefully
re-lubricate all components which are subject to this phenomenon.
