5. INTRODUCTION TO THE HYBRID-POWERED SYSTEM - i-CST
The i-CST (intelligent CYCLING SUPPORT SYSTEM) consists of the following components:

Smart Sensor – Sensing your pedaling rate and velocity.

Smart Controller – Real time calculating and coordinating optimized power output.

BMS (Battery Management System) – Providing electric power to the system while
balancing the power consumption and protecting the battery cells.

Brushless DC Motor – Provide the power assist.

Smart Cycling computer – Control and display terminal.
As soon as you start pedaling, the i-CST will sense your cadence (pedaling rate) and traveling velocity,
and real-timely coordinate the electrical motor to provide the just right power assist that match your
riding conditions, making your riding much easier and comfortable.
