SHELTERING AND STORING YOUR SCOTT BIKE
If you regularly look after your SCOTT bike during the season, you will not need
to take any special measures when storing it for a short time, apart from secur-
ing it against theft. Store your bike in a dry, well aerated place.
If you want to store your SCOTT bike for a longer period of time, e.g. over the
winter months, please observe the following things: Inflated inner tubes tend to
gradually lose air when the bike is not used for a long time. If your SCOTT bike
is left standing on flat tyres for an extended period, this can cause damage to
the structure of the tyres. It is therefore better to hang the wheels or the entire
SCOTT bike (e) or to check the tyre pressure regularly (f). Clean your SCOTT
bike and protect it against corrosion. Your SCOTT dealer offers a variety of care
products, such as spray wax etc.
Dismount the seat post and let dry away possibly penetrated humidity. Spray
a little finely atomized oil into the metal seat tube. However, do not apply oil
in a carbon seat tube. Shift the gear to the smallest chainring and the smallest
sprocket. This relaxes the cables and the springs.
CAUTION!
a
Do not hang your SCOTT bike on carbon rims. Mount instead at least one
aluminium wheel.
NOTE!
I
There are hardly any waiting times at your SCOTT dealer during the winter
months. In addition, many SCOTT dealers offer an annual check-up at a
special price. Benefit from the idle time and ask your SCOTT dealer to do the
scheduled maintenance work!
After cleaning and drying (a) check the chain for wear (b) and relubricate (c)
(see the chapter “Bicycle chain” and the manuals of the component manufac-
turers on this SCOTT info CD).
Apply a coat of standard hard wax (d) 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.
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!
DANGER!
G
While cleaning, watch out for cracks, scratches, dents as well as deformed
or discoloured material. Have defective components replaced immediate-
ly and touch up paint defects. If you are in doubt or if you have any questions,
contact your SCOTT dealer.
CAUTION!
A
Do not clean your SCOTT bike with a high-pressure cleaner or a water jet
and if you do, be sure to keep it at a distance. Do not aim at the bearings.
CAUTION!
A
Only use petroleum-based solvents for cleaning tough oil or grease stains
from paint and carbon surfaces. Never use degreasing agents containing
acetone, methyl chloride or the like, or solvent-containing, non-neutral or chem-
ical cleaning agents that could attack the surface!
