cause the leather to dry out and fade.

 Vary handle position to avoid overstraining and
tiring the hands.

6.17.1 Using leather handles

Sweat and grease from the skin are two of the
greatest enemies of leather. They penetrate the
surface of leather and cause it to disintegrate
more quickly, meaning the leather can soften and
abrade.
 Wear gloves.
Sunlight and UV light damage the colour and can
cause the leather to dry out and fade.
 Do not expose the pedelec to the sun for longer
periods of time.
Moisture may cause the leather to detach from
material beneath and mould can form.
 If the leather handles get wet, dry handles
completely.
