Congratulations on the purchase of your U•GO folding bicycle. To ensure that you can fully enjoy what your new folding bicycle has to offer, we recommend that you read this service and user manual carefully.
PLEASE NOTE…
- Have your new U•GO assembled by an authorized bicycle specialist before cycling
- A compact folding bicycle has a number of hinge points that must be properly adjusted and must be cleaned and lubricated regularly.
- The maximum weight that your U•GO can carry is 110kg. This weight is the total of rider plus luggage
- Do not set the seat post higher than indicated and tighten the seat post quick-release tight enough
- Do not set the stem higher than indicated and tighten the stem quick release skewer tight enough
- Check the tire pressure regularly. This prevents excessive tire wear and makes cycling much more pleasant
- The chain and other rotating parts of your folding bicycle should be kept clean and lubricated regularly
- Keep the bicycle clean and clean it regularly with water. When using a high-pressure cleaner, it is advisable to keep the nozzle at least 30 cm from bearing parts to prevent moisture from entering the hub or bottom bracket.
- After cleaning, lubricate the rotating parts with the correct oils and use a rust inhibitor to keep the steel parts rust-free
