A NOTE FOR PARENTS AND GUARDIANS

 As a parent or guardian, you are responsible for the activities 

and safety of your child. The Super 73 is not designed for use by children.

ATTENTION!

Only take on tasks for which you have the necessary knowledge and tools.

SAFETY / NOTES

The following safety notes provide additional information on the safe operation of your Super 73 and 

should be closely reviewed. Failure to review these notes can lead to serious injury or death. 

• 

All users must read and understand this manual before first use. Additional manuals for 

components used on your bicycle may also be provided and should be read before use in addition to 

this manual. 

• 

Always wear an approved bicycle helmet whenever using this product and ensure that all helmet 

manufacturer instructions are used for fit and care of your helmet. Failure to wear a helmet when 

riding may result in serious injury or death.

• 

Ensure correct tightening and setup is performed on your bicycle before purchase and is checked 

regularly. 

• 

It is your responsibility to familiarize yourself with the laws and requirements of operation of this 

product in the area(s) where you ride.

• 

Ensure handle bar grips are not damaged and properly installed. Loose or damaged grips can cause 

you to lose control and fall.

• 

Off-road riding requires close attention and specific skills and presents variable conditions and 

hazards which accompany the conditions. Wear appropriate safety gear and do not ride alone in 

remote areas.

• 

Bicycles and bicycle parts have strength and integrity limitations and extreme riding should not be 

performed or you risk damaging the components or becoming seriously injured or killed.

• 

After any incident you must consider your bike unsafe to ride until you consult with a certified 

bicycle service provider for a comprehensive inspection.

• 

Failure to properly charge, store or use your battery will void the warranty and may cause a 

hazardous situation.

• 

Extreme care should be taken when using the pedal assist sensor and propulsion on this product. 

Ensure you understand and are prepared for the power assistance to engage as soon as pedaling is 

underway.

• 

You should check the operation of the brake inhibitor switches before each ride. The brake system 

is equipped with an inhibitor which shuts down the power to the electric motor whenever the brakes 

are engaged. 

• 

User must understand the operation of the twist thumb throttle and pedal assist sensors before 

using, and take ample care in their usage at speeds appropriate for each region and user experience 

level. Use the lowest assist level until you are comfortable with the bike and feel confident in 

controlling the power.

• 

Because e-bikes are heavier and faster than normal bicycles, they require extra caution and care 

while riding.

• 

Do not remove front, rear or pedal reflectors. 

• 

Be familiar with your local e-bike laws.

• 

Any after-market changes to your Super 73 bike not expressly approved by Lithium Cycles could 

void the warranty and create an unsafe riding experience.
