Please read this manual properly before use and follow all the instructions

reference.
You should only disassemble the pedals if you are familiar with the technology
and if you have all the necessary tools at hand.
Please note that the pedals need to be driven for 50 to 100 km before the
slide bearings reach their final smoothness.

We recommend lubricating the bearings with MOTO Pedal Gease or equivalent
