A WARNING
Make no modifcations to the bike’s electrical system that are not explicitly approved by the manufacturer.
LEGALITY
In the United States, electric bikes are defned as “a two- or three-wheeled vehi-cle with fully operable
pedals and an elec¬tric motor of less than 750 watts (1h.p.), whose maximum speed on a paved level
surface, when powered solely by such a motor while ridden by an operator who weighs 170 pounds, is less
than 20 mph.”
However, local and state regulations vary, and it is your responsibility to ensure your bike is legal in your
particular area before riding it on public roads. If you’re unsure, ask your bicycle dealer for more information
about local laws and regulations.
RANGE
Many factors affect the range that you will experience with the bicycle. These include:
►
Battery state-of-charge.
►
Mode setting (the bike will use less power in the pedal assist Mode due to the required contribution of
the rider).
►
Tire infation pressure.
►
Adjustment of the wheel bearings and brakes (tight bearings or a dragging brake shoe will adversely
affect range).
