Usage
The Hebb E-Bike is best described as an urban bike and is best suited for
usage in an urban environment and paved roads. While cycling, it is your responsibility
to be attentive of your surroundings and traffic rules.
a. Wear shoes that stay on your feet and grip firmly to the pedals. Do not wear
sandals or ride barefoot.
b. Dress to be visible on the road and avoid loose clothes that will tangle with
moving parts of the bicycle.
c. Keep your speed at levels appropriate to road conditions
d. Be aware of wet weather conditions, as these affect braking distance. Brake
earlier than you normally would on dry roads.
e. Familiarize yourself with the traffic rules in the state you are riding in.
f. Avoid cycling in poor weather and visibility conditions such as fog, night, heavy
rain and snow. Keep your lights on in such conditions.
g. Familiarize yourself with the usage of the bike and how to maintain it.
Inspect
Before every ride, make a quick inspection of your bike’s mechanical and
electronic features. Be safe, not sorry.
Frame and fork
Visually check for damage, do not ride if bent or fractured.
Wheels and tires
Check for missing or damaged spokes. Feel spokes to insure
tightness. Wheels should be true (straight) and tires inflated to their correct pressure.
Handlebar and stem
Tightened firmly in the ‘face forward’ positions.
Brakes
Squeeze brake levers. Brake cables should remain unobstructed by other
cables or accessories.
Chain
Turn crank arms to ensure chain runs smoothly. Keep the chain lubricated and
clean.
Electronics
Red light from the controller unit should be illuminated when the electric
bike is ‘ON’. All wires should be fastened securely in place.
