Maintenance Schedule
All geared bikes valued at over $200 RRP purchased from Bike Force Australia come with a comprehensive service plan for the first year. The first service (at 30 days) is FREE. Two additional services on all Bike Force bikes are provided at discounted rates and are essential to maintain the bike’s warranty.
After that initial 12 month period, Bike Force Australia recommends that you have your bike serviced regularly to maintain it effectively.
- Standard Service: recommended every 3-6 months
- Intermediate Service: recommended every 6-12 months
- Deluxe Service: recommended every 12-18 months
