Suspension
If your pedelec is equipped with suspension el-
ements, they must be adjusted to suit the rider’s
weight and intended purpose. Expertise and ex-
perience are needed to perform this kind of work.
Therefore, if you need to adjust the suspension,
it is best to bring your bike to a shop.
Carefully read the enclosed manual
concerning the suspension system
to your pedelec.
A typical suspension fork can look like this:
Adjusting spring
stiffness
Adjusting
damping
Suspension
travel
Any adjustment to a suspension fork must be car-
ried out in accordance with the suspension fork
manufacturer’s operating manual. As a general
rule, the suspension fork should show noticeable
movement when riding over uneven surfaces but
should not “knock” (i.e. compress all the way to
the limit stop).
A suitable basic set up would see the suspen-
sion pushed in around 10 – 15 % (cross country),
15 – 20 % (touring) or 25 – 33 % (enduro, freeride,
downhill) of the spring travel when the rider is sit-
ting normally on the pedelec.
Suspension forks can only function
effectively if they are regularly
cleaned. Purpose-made cleaning
products or warm water with washing up liq-
uid are suitable here. Specialist retailers al-
so stock suitable spray lubricant for greas-
ing your suspension regularly, both after
every clean and otherwise. The same ap-
plies for suspension seat posts.
Most suspension seat posts can be
adjusted to the rider‘s weight. How-
ever, in most cases this requires the
seat post to rst be extracted from the
frame. Contact a retailer if you have any
questions about this.
Suspension frames and suspension elements
In this case, the frame‘s rear fork is exible and a
shock absorber provides suspension and damp-
ing. Some shock absorbers use a metal spring
to absorb vibration, while others do this with an
air chamber.
The absorbability, which regulates the speed of
compression and stretching, can be adjusted in
high quality shock absorbers.
A typical spring element can look like this:
Adjusting spring
stiffness
Adjusting
damping
For detailed information, please
read the enclosed instructions from
the manufacturer.
Avoid washing your pedelec with a
high-pressure cleaner as the clean-
ing uid can penetrate sealed parts
due to the high pressure and then eventually
destroy them.
The shock absorber‘s sliding pistons and
gaskets should be carefully cleaned with
a soft cloth as part of your regular pedelec
cleaning routine. Spray lubricant on the run-
ning surface of the shock absorbers and
gaskets helps keep the system working ef-
fectively. Special spray lubricant is available
for this purpose.
