If necessary, pump up your tyres until they
are at the indicated pressure. This will
reduce wear.
Avoid exposing the tyres to harmful
elements, such as sunlight, petrol, oil etc.
Rims with rim brakes
The brake lining and rim are subject to
natural wear, due to the combined action of
the rim brake and the rim. The presence of
small cracks or crookedness when inflating
indicate advanced wear. Rims fitted with
wear indicators mean that it is easy to see
how worn the rim is.
Check how worn your rims are regularly.
Brake linings
Brake linings for rim brakes and disc brakes
become worn according to the bike's usage.
If the bike is used to cycle on mountainous
terrain or for sporting purposes, the brake
linings may need to be changed more
regularly. Regularly check how worn the
brake linings are and, if necessary, have
them replaced by your approved O2Feel
reseller.
Brake discs
Brake discs also become worn over time
and when used intensively. Find out from
the manufacturer of your brakes or your
approved O2Feel reseller about acceptable
wear limits. Get worn brake discs parts
replaced by your approved O2Feel reseller.
Chains and belts
Bike chains undergo natural wear which
depends on how the bike is looked after,
maintain and used (cycling, rain, dirt, salt
etc.).
Regularly clean the chain and belts and
lubricate the chain to extend its life.
Have these parts replaced by your approved
O2Feel reseller when the acceptable wear
limit is reached. A belt does not last as long
as a chain.
Derailleur pulleys and cogs
If a bike is fitted with a rear derailleur, the
derailleur pulleys and cogs undergo natural
wear. The level of wear depends on how
the bike is looked after, maintain and used
(cycling, rain, dirt, salt etc.).
Clean and lubricate these parts regularly to
extend their life.
Have them replaced by your approved
O2Feel reseller when the acceptable wear
limit is reached.
Grips
Grips experience natural wear. This is why
they need to be replaced.
Make sure that the grips are positioned
correctly on a regular basis. Consider having
them checked by your approved O2Feel
reseller.
Hydraulic oils and lubricants
Hydraulic oils and lubricants become less
e ective over time. Failure to change the
lubricants regularly increases wear on the
components and bearings in question.
Clean all the components and bearings in
question and lubricate them again regularly.
Have the brake fluid for your disc brakes
checked and replaced regularly by your
approved O2Feel reseller.
Brake and gear cables
Make sure you check all cables regularly.
Get faulty parts replaced by your approved
O2Feel reseller. This might be particularly
