Periodic maintenance on your cargo bike

It is very important to perform periodic maintenance on cargo bikes and to record these service intervals accurately. Periodic maintenance of cargo bikes should start after the first 3 months or after 500 kilometers of use, whichever comes first. Thereafter, maintenance should take place every 6 months or after every 500 kilometers, depending on the intensity of use and riding conditions. This is essential both for consumer safety and to maintain the warranty. Make sure all maintenance is accurately recorded, as this may be required for warranty claims.

What is checked extra carefully during maintenance?

• Frame inspection
  The frame of your cargo bike is thoroughly inspected.
• Checking the brakes and mechanical parts
  Our cargo bikes range from budget models with mechanical brakes to higher-end models with hydraulic brakes. Models with mechanical brakes, although excellent, require more regular maintenance. For cargo bikes with mechanical brakes, it is important to adjust them every 500 kilometers or every 6 months and replace the brake pads, depending on wear and tear. For cargo bikes with hydraulic brakes, the brake pads should be replaced after every 1,000 kilometers, depending on wear and use. In addition, the brake cables are checked for oxidation, as cargo bikes are often left outside in the rain. Regular checks are essential to ensure optimal functionality of the brakes.

Gebruik de bakfiets altijd binnen de aangegeven maximale belastbaarheid. Het overschrijden van deze limiet kan leiden tot framescheuren/framebreuken en andere ernstige schade. Bij overschrijding van de maximale belasting vervalt de garantie, en kan er geen aanspraak worden gemaakt op garantieclaims. De maximale belasting van onze driewiel bakfietsmodellen is 300kg, inclusief het gewicht van de bakfiets, bestuurder en medepassagier(s) of goederen. Dit betekent dat, na aftrek van het gewicht van de bakfiets, dat bijvoorbeeld 70 kg weegt, er in totaal nog 230 kg beschikbaar is voor de bestuurder, medepassagier(s) en/of goederen. Voor meer informatie over de maximale belasting verwijzen wij u naar uw bakfietsdealer of naar onze website.
