How to Maintain an Electric Bike

• Step 1
  Purchase a battery that runs twice the distance you plan to ride each day. Depleting your battery completely decreases its life considerably. Save some reserve power to keep it running for years.
• Step 2
  Charge the battery overnight. Check to see it's full before you leave. You should know exactly how much power you have each day.
• Step 3
  Check the tire pressure regularly. Inflate as necessary. Tires should be firm enough to hold your weight but supple enough to squeeze with your fingers. Properly inflated tires will allow you to go faster and expend less battery power.
• Step 4
  Test the brakes and brake pads every day. Pads should be replaced about once per year--sooner if they begin to wear thin. If you travel in hilly areas, you will change your pads more often. Tighten brake cords as they begin to loosen.
• Step 5
  Wash your bike regularly but keep the battery dry. Make sure the gears are clean. Accumulated grease and dirt will slow you down and cost you unecessary repairs. Extend the life of your bicycle parts!
• Step 6
  Apply grease or spray lubricant once per week to keep your gears running smoothly.
• Step 7
  Store bike in a cool, dry place when not in use. The ideal temperature ranges from 40 to 70 degrees.
• Step 8
  Contact your local bike shop or manufacturer if problems occur or if you need new parts
