The drive force of the motor is shut off during the ride
as soon as the rider no longer pedals. The drive
system does not switch off when braking.
In order to achieve optimum braking results, do not
pedal while braking.
7.9.1
Using the brake lever
Figure 58:
Front (2) and rear (1) brake lever – example: Shimano brake
Pull the left
brake lever for the front wheel brake and
the right lever for the rear wheel brake
until the
desired speed is reached.
7.9.2
Using the back-pedal brake
Alternative
The best braking effect is achieved if the pedals are in
the 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock position when braking. To
bridge the free travel between the riding movement
and the braking movement, it is recommendable to
pedal a little beyond the 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock
position before you pedal in the opposite direction to
the
direction of travel
and start braking.
Pedal in the opposite direction to the
direction of
travel
until the desired speed has been reached.
