5. e-BIKES
How it works
This type of bike are legally classified as EPAC (Electrically Power Assisted Cycle, from now on named as
“e-bike”). This category differs from the vehicles commonly called speed pedelec which are subject to
type-approval requirements and need registration and insurance. An e-bike is a bicycle equipped with an
auxiliary motor with 250 W maximum power which assists pedalling up to 25 kph and only works when
the cyclist operates the pedals.
The level of assistance of the motor is variable, adjustable and can be changed by the cyclist even during
riding. The assistance is progressively reduced and finally switched off when you reach 25 kph. The bicycle
can be used normally when the pedal-assist system is off. In addition, an e-bike is equipped with a push aid
feature that is activated by a button and propels the bike up to 6 kph.
An e-bike behaves differently to conventional bicycles. Its average speed and mass are higher and
therefore braking force will be higher.
Recommendations for use and warnings
We recommend you gain experience and test the operating range of your e-bike under different
conditions before going on longer and more challenging rides. Bear in mind that range is influenced by
many factors such as assistance level, gear-switching behaviour, tyre type and pressure, age and condition
of the battery pack, terrain, etc.
The intended use of this e-bike comes under Group 4 as defined in section 1.4 of this manual (For riding
on rugged trails with medium obstacles) excepting public roads. If you want to use your e-bike on public
roads, you must comply with the traffic regulations of the country concerned.
Under no circumstances should you modify the components of your e-bike. This could result in violation
of local laws and/or lead to hazardous operating conditions.
Please read the motor manufacturer’s instruction manual carefully for more detailed information.
Cleaning recommendations
In addition to the points in section 4.1 of the manual, keep the battery clean. Clean it with a clean, soft
cloth and do not immerse it in water or clean it with pressurised water. After cleaning, do not dry the e-bike
with compressed air as dirt could penetrate sealed areas and electrical and electronic components and
lead to corrosion.
ATTENTION: The push aid feature should only be used when you are pushing the e-bike. Improper
use could result in injury to the user.
