TOP ELECTRIC BIKE SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE TIPS15/12/2022
TOP ELECTRIC BIKE SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE TIPS If you’re already enjoying the wonders of assisted pedalling, or are thinking of investing in an electric bike, then you’ve probably started to think about the implications of having a battery, motor and other components to look after alongside the bike itself. How can I save money on an e-bike? How long will an electric bike battery last? How long does an electric bike motor last? How much is it going to cost me to replace these, and when will I need to do it?To get more news about ebike maintaince, you can visit magicyclebike.com official website. The truth is, with a bit of TLC and PPM (planned, preventative maintenance), you can make your e-bike’s battery and motor last much longer than the manufacturer’s recommendation. Just like a normal bike, knowing what to look out for and carrying out a few basic fixes can help you to avoid serious bills further down the line. Plus, with the cost of living crisis continuing, we’re all trying to make our money go further and avoid replacing things before we need to. So, here are our top electric bike maintenance tips to make sure your electric bike and its components will keep on going for as long as possible. Keep it clean One of the simplest bike maintenance tips in the book, scrubbing your after each ride will stop muck and dirt from interfering with not just any electronics, but also the bike itself. Most electric bikes are water resistant, so you can go ahead and clean them like you would a normal bike, but we’d advise removing the battery before you start, and only using cleaning products that are recommended for use with bikes. Take care not to use a pressure washer, as this can cause water to enter sensitive areas or strip grease away from places it’s needed, like around your wheel bearings and bottom bracket. The garden hose is fine for a quick rinse, then give it a good scrub with a sponge or cloth and your preferred bike cleaning products. Dry everything off with a towel and leave your e-bike for a little while before reconnecting the battery to make sure no residual water comes into contact with battery contact points or other sensitive areas. The secret to making electric bikes last longer is all down to reducing the amount of resistance at key points on your bike. Friction between the moving parts on your bike and damage from dirt and rust are some of the main causes for components wearing out, so make sure your chain, wheels and brakes have sufficient lubrication to avoid surfaces from coming into contact too often. Use a wet lube if you’re going to be cycling in wet conditions or a dry lube if you’re cycling in summer on your chainset and re-apply any grease to your bearings and bottom bracket regularly, especially in the wet or if you wash your bike regularly. Depending on the weather, Muc-Off Dry or Wet Lube will go a long way to making your chain and chainset last much longer, but a bit of additional lube or some M094 spray on other moving parts won’t hurt. Bike grease is your other secret weapon when it comes to prolonging your e-bike’s life – make sure your bearings and bottom bracket are suitably greased to reduce wear and tear. Just take care not to get lubes or sprays anywhere near battery contact points or other sensitive areas on your e-bike. Teach yourself basic bike maintenance Even though your electric bike is packed with loads of technical kit, the bike itself probably going to be the same as any other in terms of materials and components. From repairing punctures to learning how to replace brake cables, knowing how to do some of the more fiddly jobs will not only allow you to get your electric bike back on the road, but also spot some problems before they happen. Our Cycling Help and Advice Centre is a great starting point for novice bike mechanics who want to be able to keep their e-bike in good condition. With plenty of videos and step-by-step advice, you can pick up the basics of bike servicing and start to lengthen your e-bike’s lifespan.
