PRACTICES AND CONDITIONS
WARNING:
Always check and obey any local laws or regulations, which may affect the
locations where the electric kids’ bike may be used. Keep safely away from cars and motor
vehicle traffic at all times, and only use where allowed and with caution. Never ride your
Eclypse electric kids’ bike on public streets, roads, highways, at night or when visibility is
limited.
Do not activate the speed control on the hand grip unless you are on the electric kids’ bike
and in a safe, outdoor environment suitable for riding. The maximum speed of the bike is
limited by the selected power mode (See Throttle Operation section below). Avoid excessive
speeds that can be associated with downhill rides. Maintain a grip on the handlebars with
both hands at all times. Do not touch the brake or motor on your electric kids’ bike when in
use or immediately after riding, as these parts can become very hot. Ride defensively. Watch
out for potential obstacles that could catch your wheel or force you to swerve suddenly or
lose control. Be careful to avoid pedestrians, skaters, skateboards, scooters, bikes, children
or animals who may enter your path, and respect the rights and property of others. These
electric kids’ bikes are intended for use on flat, dry surfaces, without loose debris, such as
sand, leaves, rocks or gravel. Wet, slick, bumpy, uneven or rough surfaces may impair traction
and contribute to possible accidents. Do not ride your electric kids’ bike through mud, over
ice, through puddles, in wet or icy weather and never immerse or wash the electric kids’ bike
with water, as the electrical and drive components could be damaged by water or create other
possibly unsafe conditions. Never use near steps or swimming pools.
Avoid sharp bumps, drainage grates, and sudden surface changes. Do not attempt or do
stunts or tricks on your electric kids’ bike. These electric kids’ bikes are not made to withstand
abuse from misuse, such as jumping, curb grinding or any other type of stunts. Racing, stunt
riding, or other maneuvers also enhance risk of loss of control, or may cause uncontrolled
rider actions or reactions. Never allow more than one person at a time to ride the electric kids’
bike. Do not ride at night or when visibility is limited. Never use headphones, a cell phone,
or text when riding. Never risk damaging surfaces, such as carpet or flooring, by use of an
electric kids’ bike indoors. Never tow anything or anyone with or allow your Eclypse electric
kids’ bike to be towed by any other person or vehicle, motorized or not.
Please ride Eclypse electric kids’ bike in a controlled environment and do not ride on the public
streets, open roads and highways.

Never operate the electric kids’ bike without the side panels and chain guard properly installed.
Do not allow hands, feet, hair, body parts, clothing, or similar articles to come in contact with
any rotating or moving parts, wheels, or drive train components and chain while the motor is
running or while the wheels and tires are rotating.
PROPER RIDING ATTIRE:
Always wear proper protective equipment, such as an approved and properly fitted safety
helmet (with chin strap securely buckled), eye protection, athletic shoes (lace-up shoes
with rubber soles) elbow pads and kneepads. Keep shoelaces tied and out of the way of the
wheels, motor and drive system. Never ride barefooted or in sandals. Long-sleeved shirt, long
pants, and gloves are recommended. Furthermore, a helmet may be required by local law or
regulation in your area. Your child’s brain is their most valuable asset, MAKE THEM WEAR AN
APPROVED, PROPERLY FITTED AND BUCKLED HELMET!
