After the user starts the system by means of the display panel, the control unit activates all the system elements. From
then onwards, the force applied on the pedal is read by the torque sensor, which sends a signal to the control unit. The
control unit processes this signal and activates the motor, which is powered by the battery. This process is immediate, in
such a way that the motor responds to the force applied to the pedals instantaneously. When the system is connected,
the motor remains inactive if no force is applied.
Without pedal assistance
BH EMOTION may be used as a conventional bicycle. It comes equipped with a direct current electrical motor
featuring Brushless technology. The magnetic type torque sensor also uses brushless technology. Therefore, pedalling
without assistance is carried out with no additional resistance.
The BH EMOTION’s use without pedal assistance was considered when its design was carried out and therefore, it
has been manufactured with high quality lightweight materials and components. It is amongst the lightest bicycles in
the market, weighing between 14.20 kg and 24.4 kg, including the motor and Ion-Lithium battery. The lack of friction
in combination with its light weight provides a pleasant gliding sensation when pedalling.
Start pedalling
Before resting your feet on the pedals you must sit on the saddle and hold the handlebar firmly. Special attention must
be paid if you start pedalling when using the mode that provides the most assistance (100% or 70% Mode), as
the motor will react with maximum drive and losing control is possible. For the purpose of easing acceleration, the
motor offers an additional initial drive when starting to pedal. Therefore, the force needed to put the bicycle in motion
is minimal, helping in a swift and safe entering into traffic.
Start pedalling using a small development (large cogs) and a low assistance mode (30 %mode).
In addition to providing greater control and safety on the bicycle, it requires less energy consumption and,
therefore, provides higher autonomy. Starting with a greater assistance mode (Levels 50%, 70% or
100%), may suppose a safety risk for the user.
EMOTION bicycles have been designed for urban use. A use for jumping or on mountain roads must
be avoided.
