MAINTENANCE& CARE
1. Load limit of your product (the weight of rider +bike +luggage)
。WheelSystems for road bike: 285 lbs. / 129kg
07 08
2. Storing your WheelSystems
。Carbon WheelSystems may be damaged by improper storing. Do not
hang the bike by the wheel while displaying or storage.(Figure 13)
3. Contact your authorized CADEX retailer for all wheel service needs.
Have the spoke tension and the wheel trueness checked regularly.
Spoke tension that is too high or too low can cause high operating
loads of the wheel components and could lead toa premature failure
caused by material fatigue.
4. Check the wheels before and after every ride for any damage.
Do not ride the wheels under any circumstances if there is any damage
to the rim orother components of the wheels.
For example: deformation of the braking surface, cracks inthe rim,
broken spokes, andlooseness or playinthe bearings.
If this is the case, contactyour authorized CADEXretailer to resolve
the problem.
5. Get your bikechecked by authorized CADEX retailer after everyaccident that mayresult in
damage to your WheelSystems.
6. CLEANING:
A. Wheels must be cleaned frequently with a soft spongeandneutral cleaner (such as mild soap and water).
Do not use solvents (e.g. acetone, mineral spirits, etc.).
B. Hub: The front and rear hub must be maintained at least once a year. If used regularly under extreme
conditions(e.g. strong rain, mud, transport inrain, etc.) the driver body should be maintained more
frequently. Frequent maintenanceof the hubs guarantees a longer life span and optimal performance
over time. Use of high-pressure water or strong cleaner mayinject external contaminants into the hub
and should be avoided. Do not use strong solvents. (e.g. acetone, mineral spirits, etc.).
C. Sealant: to retain proper air tightness and puncture repair functionality, follow below mentioned
maintenance frequency:
•Every 2 months:check and refill sealant as necessary
•Once per year: Removeoldor dry sealant and use only a cloth rag to wipe the inside of the tire.
Improper maintenance may result infailure of sealant functionalities.
。Before riding your bicycle, check the tire pressure and clean all contaminants and brake pad residue
(grit, dirt, oil, etc.) from the tires, brake pad and braking surface (particularly any traces ofoil orgrease)
and check the wear of the brake pads, brake surface of the rim before every ride. Replace worn out
brake pads with new ones to maintain optimum braking effect.
。If you use CADEX Tubeless WheelSystems with tubelesstires, check your tire after riding your bicycle.
If tire damage exists which the sealant cannot seal, your tire structure is damaged, replace your tire.
To avoid damage to your carbon products, do not store or transport the product in a manner that the
product is exposed to constant high temperatures. Excessive heat can damage the resin that joins the
carbon fibers. Keep product is a minimum of 45cm(18 inches) away from any constant source ofheat,
for example car exhaust, heaters, open fire, etc.
Do not exceed 150°F (65°C) exposure to your carbon products.
