How do I maintain my EbikeXL bike on a daily basis?Updated 10 days ago
Maintaining your eBikeXL electric bike is very similar to looking after a regular bicycle, but because of the motor, battery, and display, and the fact that e-bikes are often used more intensively, it’s extra important to take good care of it. Here are some key tips:
1. Routine Maintenance in the Shop
Schedule at least one annual check-up with a specialist.
This includes checking the electrical system, brakes, drivetrain, software updates, and overall safety.
2. Battery Maintenance
Charge when the battery is at 20–30% capacity.
Store in a dry place at room temperature.
If the battery suffers a fall or shock, have it checked.
3. Cleaning Your Bike and Components
Clean regularly to prevent wear from dirt and mud.
Use a damp cloth and bike-specific products.
Avoid high-pressure washing, as this can damage electrical parts and bearings.
4. Transmission (Drivetrain) Care
Dirt is the main enemy of your drivetrain.
Use degreaser, brushes, and lubricant to keep it running smoothly.
5. Tires
Check tire pressure regularly for comfort, safety, and efficiency.
Inspect for wear and damage to avoid surprises.
6. Software Updates
Keep your bike’s software up to date for efficiency and safety.
Updates can often be done at your local dealer, and some modern systems even allow updates via mobile app.
👉 By following these steps, your eBikeXL bike will last longer, stay safer, and perform at its very best.
