1. Pre-Storage Preparation Checklist ✅

  1. Adjust battery power to 50%-60%, avoid full charge or empty power storage.
  2. Inflate tires to standard PSI to prevent flat spots from long compression.
  3. Wipe off mud, sweat and dust to stop rust on frame and bolts.
  4. Fold the bike neatly and lock the folding latch tightly.

2. Core Battery Storage Rules 🔋

  • Detachable battery: Take it indoors, store in cool dry room, charge once every 2 weeks.

  • Never leave the bike charging continuously while you are away.

3. Wrong Storage Places To Avoid ❌

❌ Outdoor balcony exposed to sun, rain and night frost

❌ Damp basement with heavy moisture that causes rust

❌ Narrow cramped corner squeezing tires and frame
