7.1.3 Brake light

The tail light has an integrated brake light. When actuating 
your brake levers the brake light in the rear will start to light 
with higher intensity than the regular tail light (image 43). In 
this way the traffic coming from behind will be notified that 
you are braking and your speed is decreasing.

7.1.4 Wing mirror

Your X Speed model is being equipped with a wing mirror on 
the LH side (UK RH side) of the handlebar (image 44). The 
mirror can be adjusted by hand according to your preferred 
position. With this mirror you will have eyes on the road users 
behind you, especially those who are faster than you and who 
are in the process of overtaking you. Consequently, you don’t 
need to turn around and you can keep your attention on the 
traffic in front of you and on the traffic behind you at the same 
time.

7.2 Saddle and handlebar adjustment

X Speed models come in two frame sizes (M = Medium and L 
= Large). Fitting the frame & speed pedelec to your body can 
be done with the adjustment of saddle, stem and handlebar. 
Your dealer can do this on the spot. In case you want to do 
the settings for yourself or for another cyclist, the adjustment 
is briefly described below:

Caution! All work described requires the expertise of a 
bicycle mechanic and appropriate tools. Use a torque 
wrench to tighten the bolts and never exceed the 
maximum torque of the bolts. All necessary tooling and 
information on the recommended torque can be found 
in section 11 Technical Data.

Adjustment of the saddle height

You find the optimal saddle height if you touch the pedal with 
the heel of your stretched leg, when sitting on the saddle. 
Or when you bring the ball of your foot to the centre of the 
pedal, your knee should be slightly bent (image 45). Loosen 
the seat clamp bolt with a 6 mm. Allen key (image 46) and 
move the seat post with the saddle to its proper height. Align 
the saddle with the frame using the saddle nose and the 
bottom bracket or the frame tube as references. Fasten the 
bolt of the seat clamp again and check the correct height of 
the saddle. Repeat the process if necessary until you find the 
correct saddle height.

Bicycle parts of

the X Speed 45 

models

Your X Speed model is a high-quality speed pedelec. Here you 
will find the explanation of function, maintenance, service 
and operation of the conventional bicycle components which 
are not part of the electric drive system. You will also find 
further information in the accompanying user manuals of the 
component suppliers.

7.1 The speed pedelec, a Type-approval 

vehicle with dedicated equipment

As explained in section 3 Type-approval, the X Speed is not a 
regular electric bicycle, it is a speed pedelec. It is an electrically 
powered vehicle with a maximum speed of 45 km/h classified in 
the L1e-B vehicle category. Consequently, it is a Type-approval 
vehicle which has to comply with the European Regulation EC 
168/2013. Therefore, the X Speed comes with special equipment 
(a well audible horn, a brake light and a wing mirror) which is in 
relation to the higher speed of this vehicle (up to 45 km/h) and 
the Type-approval requirements.

7.1.1 Horn

The horn is mounted underneath the handlebar (image 39) and 
can be actuated with a pushbutt

on at the left-hand side of the 

handlebar, underneath the LCD display (image 40). With this 
horn you can notify the other road users of your presence on the 
road, especially under unclear and crowded traffic conditions.

7.1.2 Direction indicators

(only on X Alpha 45)

Unlike the horn, brake light and wing mirror which are mandatory 
according to Type-approval regulations, the direction indicators 
are not mandatory. Nevertheless, direction indicators offer 
additional comfort and safety to the speed pedelec rider and to 
other road users as well. The X Alpha 45 model has two sets of 
direction indicators; one set at the front of the speed pedelec 
(image 41) and one set at the rear of the speed pedelec fully 
integrated with the tail light and the license plate (image 42).
The operation of the two pushbuttons on the left-hand side 
underneath the handlebar and next to the pushbutton for the 
horn is self-explanatory: left-hand button for turning left and right-
hand button for turning right (image 40).
