  • Page 51: Recommendations For First-Time Ebike Riders

    4.6 RECOMMENDATIONS FOR FIRST-TIME EBIKE RIDERS 4.6.1 GETTING ACQUAINTED WITH THE BIKE Take some time to familiarize yourself with the Knaap bike and its special features. First make sure that you read and understand the user instructions, then go for a ride! The following safety aspects in particular must be considered: • Given the comparatively high speed, a correct braking technique is essential. So test your brakes and how to brake on a parking lot for example, before you start riding in traffic. • To ensure a good travelling range and stability when going round bends, your tires must be in a good condition and have the correct pressure. Check the sidewall of your tires for the minimum and maximum pressure recommended.

  • Page 52: Mechanical Safety Check Before Riding

    If the wheel wobbles or appears to be off-center, your wheel must be trued. Consult a skilled technician. Check the rims. Damage to the rim causes weak spots and can result in a faulty wheel over time. KNAAP BIKES...
  • Page 53 TASK INSTRUCTIONS EU: The rider’s right brake is the rear brake and the rider’s left brake is the front brake. UK: The rider’s left brake is the rear brake and the rider’s right brake is the front brake. While stationary: Squeeze each brake lever to make sure that there is Check the resistance.

  • Page 54: Maintenance

    Never touch these components with your bare hand. • ALWAYS check the mechanical components subject to wear and tear. Cracks, scratches or color change in highly stressed areas indicate that the part has reached the end of its useful life and must be replaced. KNAAP BIKES...

  • Page 55: Cleaning The Bike

    CLEANING THE BIKE If you clean your bike regularly, you are more likely to detect weak spots that might develop into a serious issue later. Risk of damage. Do NOT use a high pressure cleaner. Water coming from a high-pressure hose can cause damage to the bearings of your bike.
  • Page 56 Repeat this process for the other wheel. Wash off the bike with clean water. Wipe everything dry with a dry clean cloth or let your bike air-dry in the sun. Lubricate the chain of the bike. See section 5.4 Lubricating the bike. KNAAP BIKES...

  • Page 57: Adjusting The Chain Tension

    5.2 ADJUSTING THE CHAIN TENSION TOOLS/MATERIALS REQUIRED Knaap toolkit Put your bike on a bike stand. The wheels should be up in the air; otherwise it is difficult to tighten the bike chain. Carefully loosen the axle nuts that are holding your rear wheel onto the bike. This loosens the rear wheel, allowing you to adjust the tension on the chain. Carefully pull back on the rear wheel. This increases the tension on the chain. Check whether the tension is correct: The maximum play allowed when moving the chain is 1 cm or half an inch in either direction.

  • Page 58: Adjusting The Brakes

    The adjustment procedure is the same for the front and the rear brake. If the brakes feel too tight or too loose: TIP: A two fingers length is needed between the handlebar and the brake lever when you squeeze. If this is not the case, the brake must be adjusted. KNAAP BIKES...

  • Page 60 Make sure that the wheel is well-centered. Loosen the mounting bolts 1 until the caliper body 2 is free to move from side to side. Do NOT remove the mounting bolts completely. Squeeze the brake lever. This centers the caliper body 2 over the rotor 3. KNAAP BIKES...

  • Page 61: Lubricating The Bike

    While holding the lever: Start fastening the two bolts. Squeeze the brake lever. Spin the wheel to test the pad rub. If there is no rubbing, the pads are aligned. Secure the mounting bolts to full torque. If there is still some rubbing, you will need to do some fine tuning: loosen one bolt at a time until there is a gap on each side of the rotor. Spin the wheel and check if the rotor is well-centered. If you are still experiencing problems, contact a skilled technician. 5.4 LUBRICATING THE BIKE Tools/Material required: •...

  • Page 63 LUBRICATION INSTRUCTION POINT Rear shift cable: Shift the gears until the chain is on the largest sprocket, and then stop the wheel from rotating. Shift your shifter all the way in the opposite direction, as if you were going to shift to the smallest sprocket. The rear derailleur should now be stuck on the largest sprocket. This will give you enough slack to fully release the cable from the frame. Pull the upper section of the outer cable down leaving a section of inner cable exposed.
