Tightening the toothed belt
Loosen the screws A1 on both sides of the dro-
pout . You only need to loosen the
screws until the dropout can move freely .
A1
Tighten the chain/toothed belt using the adjusting
screw A2 . You have reached the correct chain
tension when the chain is still able to move up
and down slightly in the centre (10-15 mm) . Use
a belt tension measuring device to check that
the belt tension is correct . Consult the belt ma-
nufacturer’s instructions to determine the correct
tension .

Once the tension has been set correctly, tighten
the screws A1 using the prescribed torque of 8
Nm . Check that the dropout and rear wheel are
firmly attached.

17. Brake
17.1 Hydraulic brakes
It is possible that brake fluid may escape from
the system due to leaky cables and connections .
This can negatively impact the effectiveness of
the brakes . Check the pipes and connections for
tightness before each ride .
Do not ride with your FLYER if fluid is leaking from
the braking system . Allow a FLYER specialist re-
tailer to undertake repair work on this part imme-
diately . The danger of your brakes failing in this
condition is very high .
Ask your FLYER specialist retailer for detailed
instructions regarding the operation and special
features of the e-bike braking system, even if you
are an experienced cyclist. Practise in a quiet,
safe area with no traffic.
If you have any questions about assembling, set-
ting up, servicing or operating this part of your
bike, please contact a FLYER specialist retailer .
A trigger point should be clearly noticea-
ble after approximately a third of the way
when pulling the brake lever .
Do not start to ride if the brake lever
can be pulled up to the handlebars . In
this case, the FLYER is not safe for op-
eration . It is then essential to visit your
FLYER specialist retailer and have the
brake adjusted or repaired .
Brakes are safety-related components .
Have the setting and maintenance work
performed by your FLYER specialist re-
tailer . Only original spare parts may be
used . Otherwise it is possible that the
functionality of your FLYER e-bike may
be impacted or damaged. No modifica -
tions of the brake system are permitted .
Do not brake continuously or too hard on
long downhill section, as your brakes
might overheat leading to reduced brak-
ing power . Alternate between applying
the front and back brake on long and
steep downhill sections to allow the oth-
er brake to cool . It is preferable to brake
sharply for a shorter time when taking
bends or if you are riding too fast . This
allows the brakes to cool down in the
meantime .
