CLEANING AND CARING FOR YOUR BERGAMONT BIKE OR
BERGAMONT PEDELEC
Dried sweat, dirt and salt from riding during the winter or in sea air can harm
your BERGAMONT bike. You should therefore make it a habit of cleaning all
components at regular intervals.
Avoid cleaning your bike with a high-pressure cleaner. The high-pressure jet is
likely to enter bearings by passing through the seals and dilute the lubricants
hereby increasing the friction. This destroys and impairs the functioning of
the bearing races in the long term. High-pressure jets are also likely to re-
move frame and rim stickers. The electronics could be damaged in the case of
pedelecs.
A much more gentle way of cleaning your bike is with a low-pressure water jet
or a bucket of water and a sponge or a large brush. Cleaning your bike by hand
has another positive side-effect: you may discover defects in the paint as well as
worn or defective components at an early stage.
Check the chain for wear and relubricate after cleaning and drying (b) (see the
chapter “Bicycle chain” and the manuals of the component manufacturers on
this BERGAMONT info CD).
Wipe dry the sliding surfaces of the suspension fork (c) and the rear shock (d)
and apply special spray (e) approved by the suspension fork manufacturer.
Use an appropriate frame cleaner (f) and protection product for your frame.
DANGER!
G
Keep cleaning agents and chain oil clear of the brake pads, brake discs and
rim sides (braking surfaces). Otherwise the brake could fail. Never grease or
lubricate the clamping areas of a frame made of carbon, e.g. handlebars, stem,
seat post and seat tube. Once greased, carbon components may never again
ensure reliable clamping!
It is advisable to have your BERGAMONT bike serviced regularly by your
BERGAMONT dealer after the bedding-in phase, i.e. according to the
BERGAMONT service and maintenance schedule. If you ride a great deal
on poor road surfaces or off-road, it will require correspondingly shorter
service periods (see BERGAMONT service plan). The off-season during the
winter months is a very good time to take your BERGAMONT bike to your
BERGAMONT dealer for the annual inspection, as they will have plenty of time
for you and for servicing your BERGAMONT bike.
The intended use of your BERGAMONT bike includes regular servicing and the
replacement of worn out parts in time, e.g. chains, brake pads or Bowden and
brake cables. This will ensure the safe functioning and therefore has an influence
on the liability for material defects and the warranty.
For more information see the chapter “BERGAMONT service and mainte-
nance schedule” and the manuals of the component manufacturers on this
BERGAMONT info CD.
DANGER!
G
Servicing and repairs are jobs best left to your BERGAMONT dealer. If you
have your bike serviced by anyone else than an expert, you run the risk that
parts of your BERGAMONT bike will fail. Risk of accident! When working on
your BERGAMONT bike; restrict yourself to jobs for which you have the suitable
tools, e.g. a torque wrench (a), and the necessary knowledge.
DANGER!
G
If a component needs to be replaced, make it a rule to only use original
spare parts. Wearing parts of other manufacturers, e.g. brake pads or tyres
that are not of identical dimension, may render your BERGAMONT bike unsafe.
Risk of accident!
DANGER!
H
Remove the rechargeable battery or the display before doing any work on
your BERGAMONT pedelec (e.g. servicing, repairs, assembly, maintenance,
work on your drive etc.). Activating the drive systems unintentionally bears the
risk of injury!
CAUTION!
S
A rechargeable battery that has reached the end of its service life must
not be disposed of with normal household rubbish. Bring the recharge-
able battery to the dealer, where you buy your new one. If in doubt, ask your
BERGAMONT dealer.
