Using the Thule Epos Bike Repair Holder is simple. First, attach it to your Thule Epos. Once it's mounted, you can put your bike on it for easy access during repairs. When you need to work on the bike, just place your tools and parts on the magnetic platform. As for maintenance, keep it clean after each use. Wipe it down with a dry cloth to remove any dirt or debris. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they might damage the magnetic platform. Make sure to check the attachment regularly to ensure it's firmly connected to the Thule Epos. When not in use, you can leave it mounted on the Thule Epos so that you're always ready for the next bike repair.
