Above all it is important to remember, as said above, that the Neox battery reaches its
best performance after the first 4/5 full charging and recharging cycles and when it is
recharged for the first time for at least 7 hours.
The intelligent electronic management system of the NEOX battery (BMS) protects the
lithium-ion battery. The BMS controls each single cell, after the first few recharges it
balances the cells and thereby prolongs the battery life. The interval between the date
of first use and the date on which it will be necessary to replace your Neox battery is
therefore very long.
While using your Neox is important to understand what happens with the gradual dis-
charge of the battery. In fact the Neox is a fully electronic e-bike, including gear chang-
es. The system however has been designed so that the user is able to use the Neox as
a normal bike and therefore even with the battery completely discharged, despite the
fact that the gearbox is fully electronic. In fact, with a low battery, there will be a reserve
of energy that will allow the rider to reach their destination while being able to use the
gears despite the fact they are electronically controlled and the battery is fully depleted
During use, with a fully charged battery, Neox will have more assistance power avail-
able, in all three assistance modes. As the reserve energy in the battery decreases, the
power available to your Neox will gradually decrease. If we are using the bike for ex-
ample in HIGH, at a certain point, automatically, Neox will change to STANDARD mode,
then change again to ECO mode until all of the available energy in the battery has been
used before changing to NO ASSIST mode.
At this point, with all the energy used, NEOX becomes a normal bicycle, with full use of
the gears despite the fact they are electronically controlled.
