Service- and maintenance intervals
After an initial break in period, your bike will have to be maintained and
serviced in regular intervals and certain components will have to be
checked and/or replaced. Ideally, your Schindelhauer Bikes dealer should
EN
perform this maintenance. The intervals stated in the following table are
meant to function as a guide for people that travel an annual distance of
1500-2500 km with their bike. More frequent use or bad street conditions
mean these intervals have to be shortened accordingly.
