F. Extreme, stunt or competition riding
Whether you call it Aggro, Hucking, Freeride, North Shore, Downhill, Jumping, Stunt Riding, Racing,
Enduro or something else: if you engage in this sort of extreme, aggressive riding, you voluntarily
assume a greatly increased risk of injury or death.
Not all eBikes are designed for these types of riding, and those that are may not be suitable for
all types of aggressive riding. Check with your dealer or the eBikes manufacturer about the
suitability of your eBike before engaging in extreme riding.
When riding fast downhill, you can reach speeds achieved by motorcycles, and therefore face
similar hazards and risks. Have your eBike and equipment carefully inspected by a qualified
mechanic and be sure it is in perfect condition. Consult with expert riders, area site personnel
and race officials on conditions and equipment advisable at the site where you plan to ride.
Wear appropriate safety gear, including an approved full-face helmet, full finger gloves, and
body armor. Ultimately, it is your responsibility to have proper equipment and to be familiar
with course conditions.
WARNING: Although many catalogs, advertisements and articles about bicycling
depict riders engaged in extreme riding, this activity is extremely dangerous, increases
your risk of injury or death, and increases the severity of any injury. Remember that the
action depicted is being performed by professionals with many years of training and
experience. Know your limits and always wear a helmet and other appropriate safety
gear. Even with state-of-the-art protective safety gear, you could be seriously injured
or killed when jumping, stunt riding, riding downhill at speed or in competition
