Lubrication
WARNING:
• Do not over lubricate. If oil gets on the wheel rims or the brake shoes, it will reduce
brake performance and a longer distance to stop the bicycle will be necessary. Injury to
the rider or to others can occur.
• The chain can throw excess oil onto the wheel rim. Wipe excess oil off the chain.
• Keep all oil off the surfaces of the pedals where your feet rest.
• Using soap and hot water, wash all oil off the wheel rims, the brake shoes, the pedals,
and the tires.
• Rinse with clean water and dry completely before you ride.
• Using a light machine oil (20W), lubricate the bicycle according to the following table:
