The correct tension of the chains
There are three chains on the bicycle. The chains should not be too tight. They
should hang loose. Without effort you should be able to move the chain up and down,
half a centimetre approximately.
To keep the tension of the central chain correct, a
special tensioning wheel is fitted by the back axis of
the bicycle, as an integrated chain tensioner. To
adjust the tension of the chain:
1. Slightly loosen the screw. Hold the nut at
the back tight with a socket wrench to stop
the screw from slipping.
2. Shift the tensioning wheel in such a way
that the chain hangs loose, as described
above.
3. Tighten the screw again.
To keep the tension of the two chains at the front
correct, you can adjust the special tension wheels
by the pedal axes. To do
1. Slightly loosen the screw. Hold the nut at
the back tight with a socket wrench to stop
the screw from slipping.
2. Shift the tensioning wheel in such a way
that the chain hangs loose, as described
above.
3. Tighten the screw again.
The right lubricant
The chain should be cleaned and maintained at regular intervals (every 3 months
approximately). Only use special chain grease or Tevlon spray. This is the only way
to make sure that the chain will run smoothly, will stay water resistant and will not
rust.
Wipe the chain with a cloth, treat it with grease or spray and remove any excess
lubricant with a rag.
Other parts should not be treated with a lubricant.
