E-Bike Maintenance Tips: Keep Your Ride Safe and Smooth

E-Bike Maintenance Tips: Keep Your Ride Safe and Smooth

1. Frame Maintenance

▪︎ Regularly maintain the frame by wiping down the bike and keeping it dry.

▪︎ Merchandise with electrical components should not be exposed to water.

▪︎ Avoid storing or using the bike in wet conditions.

▪︎ The warranty of SENADA does not cover water damage. 


2. Brake Maintenance

▪︎ Regularly check the brake pads.

▪︎ Inspect the brake rotor regularly to prevent deformation.

▪︎ For hydraulic brakes, check for oil leakage.

▪︎ Clean the brakes regularly.


3. Battery Maintenance

▪︎ Fully charge the battery for the first use.

▪︎ Avoid using the battery at low power levels.

▪︎ Use only the specified charger for charging.

▪︎ It is recommended that you charge your battery within the temperature range of 41°F to 77°F (5°C to 25°C) in a ventilated area.

▪︎ If the battery is unused for an extended period, charge it at least once a month to keep it active.

▪︎ Keep the battery away from water and other liquids.

▪︎ Turn off the battery when not in use.

▪︎ If you encounter issues with the battery, stop charging it and contact us for assistance.


4. Motor Maintenance

▪︎ Do not attempt to disassemble the motor without professional guidance.

▪︎ If you encounter any motor issues, contact SENADA with a video.


5. Tire Maintenance

▪︎ Please check that the tire pressure is adequate before use.

▪︎ Regularly check the tire surface for foreign objects or cracks to prevent air leaks.

▪︎ Regularly inspect the spokes.


6. Derailleur Maintenance

▪︎ Regularly check the rear derailleur to ensure it shifts through all gears. Contact us for a video on how to adjust the shifter.

▪︎ Check if the derailleur is deformed in any way.


7. Cleaning and General Bike Maintenance

▪︎ Like all bikes, e-bikes require regular cleaning to keep the drivetrain functioning well and extend the bike's lifespan. Rain, grime, rock salt, and dirt can damage the chain over time.

▪︎ Cleaning your bike and chain regularly will help keep your bike safe and enjoyable to ride.

▪︎ Keep the bike upright when wet or being cleaned. 

▪︎ Components are designed to drain moisture from top to bottom, and flipping the bike over for cleaning could cause water damage and void your warranty.

▪︎ Bike cleaning tools are widely available at local bike shops and online.

▪︎ Consult your local shop to find the best bike-specific chain lubricant for your riding conditions.
