Maintenance of Your Ebike

  • Updated

Regular maintenance is crucial for both your safety and the longevity of your Ebike. Neglecting maintenance can lead to parts breaking or malfunctioning, which could result in accidents. Velotric strongly recommends adhering to a regular maintenance schedule based on typical usage. If you ride your Ebike more frequently than the standard recommendation, perform maintenance more often. If any part malfunctions, check and service it immediately or consult a qualified mechanic. Replace any worn or damaged parts before your next ride.

Basics

  • Storage: Always store your Ebike in a clean, dry place to prevent rust and protect the battery. 

  • Cleaning: Clean the frame with a damp cloth and mild, non-corrosive cleaner.

  • Water Exposure: Do not submerge your Ebike in water as this may damage the electrical system. Store your Ebike under shelter and avoid leaving it out in the rain. 

    ! WARNING: Water damage and corrosion are not covered under warranty.

  • Tire Pressure: Ensure that the tires are inflated to the pressure range specified on the tire sidewall.

  • Component Check: Before each ride, ensure all components are in good working condition. 

  • Service Intervals: Service your Ebike at regular intervals 

Cautions

  • Temperature: Storing the Ebike at temperatures above 77°F (25°C) can negatively impact battery health and lifespan.

  • Battery Care: Improper storage or long-term neglect of the battery can reduce its capacity and may void the battery warranty.

  • Battery Housing: Do not open the battery housing. Doing so may damage the battery, pose serious injury risks, and void the warranty.
