Reading the manual to the bicycle is the best way to be sure of correct care. These guides can be found on the company websites or downloaded from other places online as well. Read and understand the book thoroughly before performing any services on the bike. The torque settings, special tools, and techniques as well as warranty information is covered in it.

One can also visit specialty bike stores. Most shop owners and employees are educated on the carbon products they sell. Even so, the best way to get the information needed is the manual. If the book does not explain it, one should contact the company that made the bike.

There are common sense methods of care one can practice everyday to help maintain their bike. The biggest of theses is parking. It is very common for cyclists to lean their bike against a tree or a fence. This is just an accident waiting to happen. It could easily fall causing irreparable damage, or at the very least expensive damage. Be sure to place it in a safe place when it is parked.
