2.2 Pre-ride Check

Pre-Ride Check
Routinely check the condition of your bicycle before every ride. Regardless
of ability and experience level, you should read all of your Owners Manual
(Assembly Safety Equipment, Pre-Ride Check, Safety Checks, And Set
Up) and carry out all the required checks. In addition, make sure you are
comfortable operating the eBike's controls and are familiar with all aspects of
your bike.
• Make sure nothing is loose. Lift the front wheel off the ground by
approximately 5cm (2 inches), then let it drop and bounce on the ground.
Does anything sound, feel or look loose? Then do a visual and tactile
inspection of the whole bike. Can you find any loose parts or accessories?
If so, secure them. (Frequency: Before every ride)
• Tyre pressure. Make sure tyres are correctly inflated. Check by pushing
the bike down into the floor, while looking at how the tyre deflects. Check
Manufacturer's recommended tyre pressures indicated on the side wall.
Adjust the air pressure if necessary. (Frequency: Before every ride)
• Tyre condition. Spin each wheel slowly and look for cuts in the tread and
side wall. Replace damaged tyres, do not ride on them. (Frequency: Before
every ride)
• Wheels are true. Spin each wheel and check for side-to-side rim
movement. If a rim moves side to side even slightly take the bike to a
Whyte retailer to have the wheel trued. (Frequency: Before every ride)
• Ensure there is ample battery charge before setting off (Frequency: Before
every ride)
• Check that the display and control functions are operational (Frequency:
Before every ride).
WARNING
It is critical that the checks above are completed
before every ride.
Brake Lever Adjustment:
INFO
Please note front and rear brake levers change sides dependant
upon country/state. Ensure you identify which brake lever operates
each brake.
Whyte recommends that at least the index fingers have the range to reach the
brake levers easily. Brake lever adjustment can be achieved - please consult
brake manufacturers manuals or by consulting a Whyte retailer for further
details.
INFO
Take care during assembly not to damage the discs, callipers, or
pads when installing the wheels. With hydraulic brakes, never apply
pressure to the levers with the wheel uninstalled.
