How to clean my drivetrain?
The chain and drivetrain are the primary wear components of your Moustache electric bike (e-bike). A clean and properly lubricated chain reduces friction and wear, leading to more efficient power transmission and faster, quieter gear changes.
Apply a specific detergent to your drivetrain, being careful not to touch the brake pads.
2
Slowly turn the pedals clockwise to guide the chain through the brush and remove dirt and oil residue.
(if you turn the pedals counter-clockwise, the chain won't move, and the pedals will spin freely)
3
Use a clean cloth to wipe off excess detergent from the chain.
4
Then, apply a suitable lubricant along the entire length of the chain, ensuring it is evenly distributed.
:warning: Do not get lubricant on the brakes. Wipe off excess lubricant with a clean cloth. Be careful not to apply too much, as this could attract more dirt.
