Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure optimal performance, verify that the sag on the front fork and rear shock is correctly adjusted to your body weight before the first ride. The battery should be stored in a cool, dry place if not used for extended periods, and you should avoid using high-pressure water sprayers when cleaning the bike to protect the internal electrical connections. Regularly check your tyre pressure, as the 2.6-inch width performs best when tuned to specific trail conditions. The Shimano XT drivetrain requires regular lubrication and periodic adjustment of the tension cable to maintain crisp gear shifts.
