1. Introducció
The AXA VS Benjamin chain guard is specifically designed for 24-inch children's bicycles. This product provides essential protection for both the rider's feet and clothing by fully shielding the front chain. This prevents contact with the moving chain, enhancing safety and keeping clothing clean. The AXA VS Benjamin is constructed from high-quality polycarbonate in a dark, smoke-colored finish, ensuring durability and a sleek appearance.
2. Configuració i instal·lació
Before installation, ensure the bicycle is stable and secure. It is recommended to have the bicycle on a stand or inverted for easier access to the chain area.
- Inspeccionar components: Verify that all parts of the chain guard are present and undamaged.
- Posicionament: Carefully position the AXA VS Benjamin chain guard over the bicycle's front chainring and chain. Ensure it aligns with the mounting points on the bicycle frame.
- Muntatge segur: Attach the chain guard to the designated mounting points on the bicycle frame using appropriate fasteners (not included, typically supplied with the bicycle or purchased separately). Ensure all screws or clamps are tightened securely to prevent movement during cycling. Do not overtighten, as this may damage the chain guard or frame.
- Clearance Check: After installation, manually rotate the pedals and check for any interference between the chain guard, chain, pedals, or frame. The chain should move freely without rubbing against the guard.
- Inspecció final: Confirm that the chain guard is firmly attached and does not wobble. A loose chain guard can be a safety hazard.
