With the front wheel off the ground, you should not be able to move the fork up, down, or side-to-side in the head tube.
WARNING: • Do not over lubricate. If oil gets on the wheel rims or the brake shoes, it will reduce brake performance and a longer distance to stop the bicycle will be necessary. Injury to the rider or to others can occur. • The chain can throw excess oil onto the wheel rim. Wipe excess oil off the chain. • Keep all oil off the surfaces of the pedals where your feet rest. • Using soap and hot water, wash all oil off the wheel rims, the brake shoes, the pedals, and the tires.
