General notes about riding
The motor provides pedal assistance while you are pedalling, and the the bike is in motion. The
amount of pedal assistance will be higher or lower depending on the amount of force applied
to the pedals. If you stop pedalling, the motor will stop providing any assistance. The Greyp
bike can also be ridden as a normal bicycle without motor assistance by switching the vehicle
to the OFF mode. The same applies if the battery is empty.
Greyp bikes have a walk-assist mode (the motor engages without pedal force being applied)
which is designed to provide assistance when walking the vehicle up a hill.
The bike will be due for its first maintenance after roughly 100 kilometers or 62 miles, or
3 to 6 weeks. The running-in phase typically involves spokes losing tension, bolts losing
tension, cables lengthening, gears becoming maladjusted, and bearings running in, so
there is every reason to have your dealer service the bike at this stage. This maturing
process is unavoidable. Therefore, make an appointment with your Greyp dealer or local
bike service for a first inspection of your new bike. The first inspection is very important
for the functioning and durability of your bike.
It is advisable to have your bike serviced regularly after the running-in phase. The
schedule given in the technical manual is a rough guide for cyclists who ride their bike
between 1,000 and 2,000 km a year. If your consistently ride more or if you ride a great
deal on poor road surfaces, the maintenance periods will shorten respectively.
WARNING — The intended use of the bike includes regular maintenance and the replacement
of worn out parts in time and therefore has an influence on the warranty as well.
WARNING — It is forbidden to install a child seat on luggage carrier handlebars, seat post, top
tube of the frame, head tube of the frame, or any other place which is not designed for the
installation of a child seat. Failing to follow these instructions can lead to serious damage to
bike, injury or death.
