To ensure a smooth departure, the assistance will only start when
the bicycle rides at 3 kph (2 mph) or more. Assistance levels
are approximate. They vary depending on your body weight,
weather conditions and pedaling effort. The motor assistance will
gradually reduce while approaching the set maximum speed and
will completely stop upon reaching this speed in order to follow the
regulation:
Canada & USA: 32 kph (20 mph)
Europe: 25 kph (15 mph)
>>
NOTE:
When the throttle (located on the command console)
is activated, the system bypasses the assistance level selected on
the command console and provides maximum power-assistance,
independent of your pedaling effort. However, we still recommend
that you continue pedaling when the throttle is activated.
GENERATION
In position G1 through G4, the motor becomes a generator, allowing
the system to restore energy in the battery. For better results, we
recommend to recharge the battery in G1 or G2 modes while keeping
a riding speed of at least 20 kph (12 mph).
The motor also becomes a generator when using the rear brake.
Please note that the generative mode does not replace the
existing brakes, but increases considerably the braking quality
and will help you slow down. It activates as soon as the rear
brake lever is activated.
Fitness Machine:
Your OHM bicycle can be used in a stationary
bike stand or while riding, to function as a cardio fitness machine.
To turn your bicycle into a fitness machine, use the four generative
modes to simulate inclines. The higher the level (G1 – G4) the more
effort the system will be demanding.
>>
NOTE:
Re-gen cannot function when battery is fully charged.
