Sharvan bike Country 7 speed black

Step 1 Removing the saddle

• Unscrew the screw from the bottom.

Step 2 Front wheel removal

• Unscrew the main wheel hub bolt (it holds really tight)
• Unscrew the screws from the brake caliper and mudguard
• Remove the mudguard first and then the wheel

Step 3 Removing the side covers

• Move the seatpost clamp upwards. Alternatively, loosen and pull the seatpost clamp upwards.
• Unscrew the 8 screws holding the side covers
• Remove the right and left side cover

Step 4 Removing the handlebars

• Loosen the quick release pin, unscrew the screw
• Be aware that handlebars remains connected to the bike by the brake cables and shifter.

Step 5 Shifter

Shifter is on the handlebars and it is connected with rear wheel by a Bowden cable which is attached to the bicycle frame (it is visible after removing the side cover). It ends in a hub with a gearbox - Shimano Nexus 7.

Step 6 Rear wheel-hub

We recommend to entrust the replacement/service to professionals.

Step 7 Brakes

The brake levers continue through the brake cable, which is attached together with the shifting bowden in the bike's basic frame (the grooves are visible after removing the side cover). One brake cable goes to the front wheel caliper and the other to the rear wheel caliper. For safety reasons, we recommend to entrust the brake replacement to professionals.

Step 8 Front wheel caliper

Step 9 Cables inside a bike frame

• When installing the covers, the cables needs to be reinserted into the grooves on the frame

Step 10 Rear wheel caliper

Step 11 Releasing/Removing the steering rod and front fork

• The steering rod contains a locking mechanism. Loosen the joint with the red lever and unscrew the exposed bolt. Caution! When reassembling, do not overtorque - this bolt puts pressure on the head assembly bearings and may damage them. The same care is required when tightening the fork hedge. Basic knowledge of bicycle maintenance is required.
• Loosen the bolts
• Front steering rod and front fork

Step 12 Removing the front fork joint with the locking mechanism

• Remove the front joint
• Remove the SEEGER Lock Washer
• Pull out the pin
• Gently push the pin down and outwards
• We recommend to lubricate the unlocking joint and the prism with a light coat of grease

Step 13 Removing the front cover

• Unscrew the 4 screws. (The screw in the top left is harder to remove, it may get stuck). 2 screws (upper right + lower left - to the cross) are enough for the cover. 4 screws are required if the bag holder is used.

Step 14 Removing the rear wheel

• Remove the axle nut cap
• Remove the drive belt from the tensioner. The belt cannot be removed at this stage! The tension pulley that pushes the belt against the rear freewheel can be unscrewed. When removing the rear wheel, remember the order in which the nuts and washers were placed.
• On the left side there are 2 nuts at the wheel, on the right side there is one nut.
• They are placed in the following order. Left and right side of the rear wheel.
• Then remove the plastic washer with the yellow marking from the hub.
• After removal, this part will remain on the wire rope. Now the belt can also be removed.

Step 15 Removing the belt

• Loosen the belt from the tensioner
• Unscrew the tensioner (not necessary when servicing the rear wheel): The tensioner does not have to go out (like this) when replacing the belt. Just unscrew the tension pulley - see previous note. Skill is required when reassembling the tensioner spring to the fork.
• A puller is required to remove the cranks. Follow the manufacturer's instructions when removing the cranks. Folding pedals can be removed with a 15mm wrench.

Step 16 Removing the rear mudguard

• Unscrew all screws

Step 17 Removing the auxiliary wheels

• Unscrew the wheels

Step 18 Final advice

Each bolt and nut must be tightened with the same torque that held it in place when removed. That is, some more and some less. Especially sensitive are the moving parts (head assembly) and threads made from plastic or aluminium. There is a risk of damage if excessive torque is applied. If you are unsure about the work procedure or if something is stuck, you should contact the manufacturer or have the bike serviced by a professional.
