ASSEMBLY IS FINISHED!
You’re almost ready to ride. Before each ride, it is important to do a full system check, such as
checking the tightness of all nuts and bolts. Make sure you follow every step in the next section
“Before the first ride”.
BEFORE THE FIRST RIDE
If you have purchased your bike from a specialist dealer, they must provide the electric bike
in a condition ready to ride in order to ensure safe operation. The dealer must perform a final
inspection and a test ride.
SAFETY CHECK
1. WHEELS
Check the tires’ condition, alignment and air pressure. Check the tires and wheels for damage,
cracks and deformation.
2. BRAKES SYSTEM
Pull both brake levers. You should feel an obvious pressure point and the levers should not be
able to touch the handle.
•
Make sure that the disks are not rubbing against each other.
•
If they do rub at the beginning, it’s normal because they are not broken in.
•
To learn more about adjusting brakes go on our website, our YouTube channel, or visit your
local bike shop to have them professionally adjusted and tuned.
•
Check that the configuration of the brake lever matches what you are used to. Otherwise
your specialist dealer should adjust the configuration of the brake levers. More information on
brakes in our maintenance and components section on this manual.
3. CABLES:
Look out for any loose cables
•
Make sure the male and female plugs are properly connected.
•
There should be no strain on any wiring near the fork when turing the handlebars from left
to right.
•
Verify that the wiring on the frame is secure and free from any moving parts that may
damage the wiring. For example, the motor wire should be secure.
4. DISPLAY:
Check that your display turns on and functions properly.
5. KICKSTAND:
Make sure that the kick stand is tightly secured, and not rubbing against
the ground or tires. DO NOT SIT ON A BIKE WITH THE KICKSTAND ENGAGED.
!
DANGER
!
Make sure the brakes have already been applied prior to getting on to your bike. If the assistance
mode is turned on, your E-Bike will start moving as soon as you push on the pedal. The unfamiliar
push can otherwise cause a fall, hazard, or accident.
