Congratulations on the purchase of your Hilltopper Horizon 36V electric bike kit. And welcome to the
Hilltopper community of electric bike enthusiasts.
With a small but powerful 350W hub motor and a battery with a range of 25 to 50 miles, the Horizon
will get you where you need to go and back. The install should take around an hour depending on
your mechanical skills and enthusiasm. You can also take your bike and kit to a local bike shop to
have them install your kit. Install fees will vary with different shops.
When you finish your install, double-check that all the bolts are tightened, the connections are secured,
the wheel rolls freely, and the battery is charged. Start off slowly at first to get used to the assist.
AND THEN HAVE FUN!
