crucial. The battery can be removed following these steps. Use the key provided to unlock
the battery:

clockwise to lock (while looking at the key, opposite if looking down at the frame while turning).

You may remove the battery to charge or the battery can be charged in the frame. For
transport by car, we recommend taking the battery out of the bike and storing inside

pushed into the frame of the bike slowly. Once the battery is reinsterted into the bike the
key should be locked. It is a tight fit and this may take a couple of attempts to become
