Safety and security

Is it easy to maintain my Iruka and fix issues such as a flat tire by myself?

自転車のメンテナンスの経験と六角レンチなどの適切な工具をお持ちであれば、それほど難しくはありません。しかし、できうるならば信頼できる自転車店を見つけておくことを強くお勧めします。特に折りたたみ自転車に十分な知見のあるお店ならなお良いでしょう。

Due to the structure of iruka, what should I pay special precautions for safely?

The following 2 points are the most important and unique that other bicycles do not have. For more details, please refer iruka owners Manual.

Do not carry the bicycle by the rear wheel when the bicycle is folded. Doing so may lead to injury due to the rear wheel turning and trapping your fingers between the frame and the rear wheel. (iruka is sold with a wheel cover to prevent fingers going through the rear wheel)

Check that the stem and the handle post is inserted to the very bottom and that the cam levers are closed steadily.

Has the frame strength passed official safety tests?

Taiwan Cycling and Health Tech Industry R&D Center(財団法人)において下記のテストを実施し、パスしています。
垂直方向繰り返し疲労試験(EN4.8.6)
荷重落下衝撃試験(EN4.8.2)
前倒し衝撃試験(EN4.8.3)

Can I mount different sized tires from the original (18-inch x 1.25 and 1.50)?

外径460mmまたは横幅40mmを超えるタイヤは折りたたみ時に車体と干渉する可能性があります。18インチ x 1.50を超えるタイヤを用いる場合は事前によくご確認ください。

Can I replace the seat post?

上段のシートポストは直径27.2mmであれば交換可能です。ただし長さが380mmを超えると折りたたみ時に先端が床面に当たる可能性があります。

Can I customize the drivetrain parts?

iruka may be customized if each part matches the size of the original parts. However, as all parts of iruka are designed to fold with precision, we don't recommend customizing the drivetrain system or control system. If you do consider customizing your iruka, please seek advice from your retail shop's staff. Below are some possible issues that may arise during customization.

Crank set
A chain ring with a diameter over 250mm or with a cover on the back may interfere with the rear swing arm when folding. Also, when the crank set is changed and the Q factor (the distance between the outside of one crank arm to the outside of the other crank arm) is decreased, the tip of the crank may interfere with the caster when riding, or with the rear end when folding. In general, a front derailleur cannot be installed because there is not enough space.

Bottom bracket
The original bottom bracket is specially designed to use a long axle. If it is changed to a shorter bottom bracket and the Q-factor (the distance between the outside of one crank arm to the outside of the other crank arm) is decreased, the tip of the crank may interfere with the caster when riding, and with the rear end when folding.

Handle bar
A handle with different size and shape might interfere with the frame and/or with the ground surface when folding. Also, when the brake lever and shifter are repositioned significantly different from the original design, it may entangle the wires during folding and unfolding, thereby affecting the bike's braking ability.

Brake A V brake or caliper brake cannot be installed because there is no base for a caliper. A rear disk brake rotor with larger diameter will interfere with the rear end.

If the coupler (not included in the product package) can be attached to the saddle, iruCarry can be used on bicycles with a seat post radius of 26-35mm. Please note that when there is not enough space on the seat post, it could cause the back shelf to interfere with the rear, and/or eliminate luggage space.

What are the requirements for using iruCatch on other bicycles?

iruCatch can be attached to a handle post with a diameter of 22-35mm.
