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 (a).
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 in-
creasing the friction. This destroys and impairs the functioning of the bearing races in
the long term. High-pressure jets are also likely to remove 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 chap-
ter “Bicycle chain” and the manuals of the component manufacturers).
Wipe dry the sliding surfaces of the suspension fork and the rear shock (c) and apply
special spray approved by the manufacturer (d).
Apply a coat of standard hard wax on painted, metal and carbon surfaces (except
from brake surfaces and brake discs). Polish the waxed surfaces after drying to give
them a nice shine.
WARNING
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 clamp-
ing 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!
