🔋 1. Battery Care
Your Coswheel’s 48V battery is the most expensive component. Follow these steps to keep it healthy:
-
Charge regularly (don’t let it sit empty)
-
Store indoors in moderate temps (50–77°F)
-
Avoid overcharging overnight
-
Use the original charger only
-
Charge to 80–90% for daily use to extend battery lifespan
Clean the battery terminals occasionally to prevent corrosion.
🛞 2. Tire Pressure & Inspection
Coswheel’s fat tires (usually 20” x 4”) need regular attention:
-
Check weekly — Ideal pressure: 20–30 PSI
-
Inspect for wear, punctures, or cracks
-
Keep pressure consistent for better range and smoother rides
-
Lower to 15–18 PSI for off-road riding
🔧 3. Brake System
Your Coswheel likely comes with mechanical disc brakes. Maintain stopping power with:
-
Visual pad inspection (replace if <1mm)
-
Brake lever feel — if spongy, adjust cable tension
-
Clean rotors with isopropyl alcohol, never oil
-
Avoid spraying water directly into brake components
⚙️ 4. Chain & Drivetrain
Coswheel bikes use 7-speed Shimano setups that need light attention:
-
Clean chain with degreaser every 2–4 weeks
-
Lubricate chain after cleaning or rain
-
Wipe off excess oil to prevent dirt buildup
-
Shift gears smoothly to reduce wear
💡 5. Electrical & Display System
-
Keep the LCD display dry and clean
-
Don’t press buttons with gloves when wet
-
Check that headlight, taillight, and horn work
-
If the display blinks or errors appear, consult your manual or retailer
🪛 6. General Tightening & Safety Checks
Every 1–2 weeks:
-
Check that handlebars, stem, seatpost, and wheels are tight
-
Look for loose screws, bolts, and pedals
-
Test suspension for squeaks or leaks
-
Listen for unusual noises while riding
