The Urban Ryder™ Electric Assisted Bicycle has a 48 volt ba ery at 13 amp hours, supplying the power to a 500 wa electric
brushless 8FUN rear hub motor. This is a powerful electric assisted bicycle in a pass-through shaped frame and special care
must be taken when ge ng to know it. You will be riding faster than you think!
Because the bike can quickly reach high speeds, you need to exercise cau on when opera ng this E-Bike. Even though you
may be an experienced bicycle rider, your
fi
rst ride should be in an area without tra
ffi
c or other hazards.
We suggest that you ride the bike as a bicycle with no power assist turned on (set “ASSIST” to “0”), to familiarize yourself
with the bike’s extra weight and slow handling and stopping. Test the bike’s braking ability to determine your stopping
distances. Once you become con
fi
dent in your riding and braking ability, set the assist level to the lowest se ng, Level 1,
and begin riding the bike.
When you feel con
fi
dent and familiar with the feel from the powerful 500 wa motor, try using the thumb thro le and
higher Assist Levels. Pay special a en on to the weather and road condi ons when learning to ride your E-Bike. Wet roads
require longer stopping distances than dry roads. Always look ahead when riding to give yourself me to stop in emergency
situa ons. Remember that pedestrians may not be able to hear or see you approaching from behind. Slow down and use
extra cau on when passing foot or vehicle tra
ffi
c, parked cars, or other cyclists. Do not be afraid to use your bell, it’s there
to signal “Here I Am”.
Once you have mastered the Urban Ryder™ Electric Assisted Bicycle, your commute to work or leisure bike rides will
become an easy and fun experience. E-Bikes are a great way for persons recovering from heart condi ons to engage in
cardio exercise. When you get red you can use the power assist to supplement your pedalling power or simply bring you
home. This way you will not stress your body and can build your strength gradually to improve your
fi
tness or your road to
recovery.
The Green Light Cycle Ltd.™ Team wishes you safe riding and be er health.
