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).
