A worn bike chain can break and cause
very serious falls . Worn bicycle chains
must therefore immediately be changed
by your FLYER specialist retailer .
Regularly care for your bicycle chain by cleaning
and greasing it . These measures reduce prema -
ture wear .
To ensure that the chain and gears can
work safely, the chain must have a cer -
tain level of tension . Derailleur gears
tension the chain automatically . In the
case of hub gears, chains which are too

The axle nuts must be correctly fastened
after each chain adjustment process .
Work may only be performed on the
chain once the electrical system has
been switched off and the battery has
been removed . If the chain of your
FLYER e-bike has fallen off the chain
ring or sprocket, it is essential to switch
off the electrical system and remove the
battery before placing the chain back on
the gear wheels .
Chain care
The drive chain must be cleaned and lubricated
regularly in order to ensure that it functions well
(see section “Inspection plan”) .
Dirt can simply be washed off. You can also clean
the chain by wiping it with an oil-soaked cloth.
Once it is clean, it must be lubricated at the joints
with a suitable lubricant . After leaving for a short
while, wipe off the excess lubricant.

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 .
