Shifting the gears 

Your 

E-Wave

 comes equipped with a Shimano 8 speed gear set. 

The lower gears are useful for starting off from a stop or when 
riding slowly or climbing steep hills. Higher gears are most 
effective when riding at speed. The mid gears

 

fit into the space 

between. As a normal bike, you will get used to using the gear 
settings that are most comfortable for your ride and trip.

• The twist shifter is located on the right side of the handlebar.

The gear shifting system and motor assist are entirely 
independent; neither affects the other’s performance. Both work 
toward the goal of propelling the bike, of course, and their 
contributions are additive.
