Combatting the Grime
The UK is not exactly known for its dry riding conditions. Mud, grit, and road salt can take a toll on your e-bike if you do not look after it.
Essential Cleaning Routine
- Never use a power washer - it can force water into sensitive electronics.
- Use a dedicated bike wash and a soft brush.
- Dry the chain thoroughly and apply a high-quality wet lube.
Battery Care
Store your battery indoors during winter nights. Extremes of temperature can degrade the cells over time. Try to keep it between 20% and 80% charge if you are not using it for a while.
