MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE Dealer and Bicycle mechanic routine maintenance: Your bicycle should be taken to a servicing dealer or bicycle mechanic after 250km of riding to check the tension of the spokes. Then every 1000km for a general service and inspection. Failure to do this can void your warranty due to unnecessary wear and tear.
DO’S AND DON’TS Do treat your e-Bike like any bicycle you would want to last well… keep it stored somewhere secure and away from the elements. Don’t treat your e-Bike as a dirt-bike! The motor and battery are weatherproof, but not water- tight.
Warranty work should only be carried out by authorised Hikobike agents and does not cover the any transport costs. Hikobike accept no liability for damage to the e-bike or parts that have arisen from: incorrect tuning of moving parts; the improper use of the e-bike; and the improper maintenance of the e-bike. This includes damage as a result of untimely replacement of parts which suffer wear and tear.
