Maintenance Tips
- Clean carbon frame, linkage, and drivetrain after every muddy or wet ride to prevent grit damage and premature wear.
- Inspect carbon frame and swingarm regularly for cracks, chips, or impact damage—especially after crashes or rock strikes.
- Service suspension pivots and bearings on schedule; check for play, creaks, or stiffness before rides.
- Keep SRAM XO AXS Transmission drivetrain clean, updated, and battery charged for consistent electronic shifting performance.
- Check derailleur mounting, crank interface, and all fasteners regularly due to high-vibration XC racing conditions.
- Inspect fork and rear shock for air pressure stability, seal wear, and oil leaks; follow manufacturer service intervals.
- Maintain brake system (pads, rotors, calipers) with frequent inspection for consistent high-performance XC braking.
- Grease pivot hardware only where specified and use correct torque values to protect carbon frame interfaces.
- Avoid high-pressure washing around pivots, bearings, and electronic components.
