CHAIN MAINTENANCE

Although the chain is one of the wearing components of your BERGAMONT bike,

there are still ways for you to prolong its life. Make sure the chain is lubricated

regularly, especially after riding in the rain. Try to only use gears which run the chain

in the straightest line between the sprockets and chainrings and get into the habit of

high cadence pedalling.

Chains on bicycles with derailleur gears are worn out after approx. 1,000 to 3,500 km

or 50 to 125 hours of use. Heavily stretched chains impair the operation of derailleur

gears. Cycling with a worn-out chain also accelerates the wear of the sprockets and

chainrings. Replacing these components is relatively expensive compared with the

costs of a new chain. It is therefore advisable to check the condition of the chain at

regular intervals.

Your BERGAMONT dealer has accurate measuring instruments to check the chain

wear (c). Replacing the chain should ideally be left to an expert, as this requires

special tools. In addition, you need to select a chain matching your gear system (d+e).

DANGER!

An improperly joined or heavily worn chain can break and cause an accident.

NOTE!

When replacing your chain, only use appropriate and suitable original spare parts

(f). Your BERGAMONT dealer will be pleased to help you.

NOTE!

For easy setting of the tension download the Gates Carbon Drive iPhone®-App

(available free of charge in the iTunes® App Store), use the Carbon Drive Krikit

Gauge or the Eco Tension Tester (available in Europe at present).

BICYCLE CHAIN

Regular and correct lubrication of your bicycle chain ensures enjoyable riding and

prolongs its service life. It is not the quantity but the distribution and regular appli-

cation of lubricant that counts. Clean the dirt and oil off your chain with a slightly oily

rag from time to time (a). Special degreasers are not necessary; they even have a

damaging effect.

Having cleaned the chain as thoroughly as possible, apply chain oil, wax or grease

to the chain links (b). To lubricate the chain, drip the lubricant onto the rollers of the

lower run of the chain while you turn the crank. Once this is done, turn the cranks a

few more times; then let your BERGAMONT bike rest for a few minutes so that the

lubricant can disperse. Finally wipe off excess lubricant with a rag so that it does not

spatter around during riding or can collect road dirt.

DANGER!

Make sure the braking surfaces of the rims, the rotors and the brake pads remain

clear of lubricants, otherwise the brake can fail!

NOTE!

For the sake of the environment, use biodegradable lubricants only. Bear in mind

that some of the lubricant can end up on the ground, especially in wet conditions.
