5 - Service
Self-lubricating high-performance bearings are installed in the freeQENCE
5.1
stem. Additional lubrication of the bearing points is not necessary.
Nevertheless, all moving parts on the bike, including the freeQENCE stem,
are subject to wear.
If bearing play occurs, this must be checked by your specialist dealer or the
manufacturer. Worn bearings must be replaced.
The freeQENCE stem does not have a regular maintenance schedule.
The time required for servicing depends on many factors. These include
intensity of use, type of use, rider weight, environmental conditions, adverse
(such as salty or extremely dry, dusty, etc.) environmental conditions.These
conditions can shorten the service intervals.
Avoid cleaning with a direct water and a high-pressure cleaner.
Do not use cleaning agents or solvents.
