• Protective Parts: Inspect the protective material on the support arms for any signs of wear, tears, or damage. If damaged, contact Truskore support for replacement options to prevent scratching your bicycle frame.
• Structural Integrity: Visually inspect the mount for any signs of bending, cracks, or other structural damage. If damage is observed, discontinue use immediately and replace the unit.

6. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your Truskore Bicycle Wall Mount, refer to the following common problems and solutions.

• Problem: The bicycle feels unstable or wobbly when mounted.
