KEEP YOUR YETI
FRESH AND CLEAN
MAINTENANCE OVERVIEW
Following these guidelines will help maintain the performance of your bicycle and prevent
more serious problems from arising. It is important to remember that service intervals can
vary depending on climate, trail conditions and riding frequency. Servicing your bike requires
special knowledge and tools. If you are unsure about working on your own bicycle, contact your
authorized Yeti Dealer for more information on general bicycle maintenance.
This owner's manual should be used in addition to the manuals supplied with you bike by the
component manufacturers. If those manuals are missing, most component manuals can be found
on the component manufacturers website or contact your local dealer.
Any component of the SHIMANO STEPS system should only be serviced by a certified mechanic.
All STEPS related service should be taken to a Yeti authorized dealer and not attempted by the user.
