3. E-bike type

Hermansen e-bikes are of the pedelec e-bike type. 

Pedelec stands for Pedal Electrical Cycle, also 

referred to as EPAC, which stands for Electrically 

Power Assisted Cycle. 

The motor assist is activated by a pedal action sensor 

designed to detect when the pedal is being turned. 

This means that the bike provides motor assistance 

only when you start to pedal, and when you stop 

pedalling the motor stops supporting too. It makes 

pedalling easy and feels like riding with constant tail 

wind.

Electrically power assisted cycles – EPAC Bicycles. 

The motor assistance is limited to a maximum 

continuous power rating of 0.250 kW (250 watt) 

and a maximum speed of 25km/h (15.5 mph). The 

noise testing of the motor in a normal environment 

is <50dB. The maximum permissible total weight is 

110 kg (including fully assembled EPAC plus rider, 

equipment and luggage). 

 

5.Intended use

The e-bike is intended for urban and commuter riding, 

and for one person riding with both wheels in contact 

with the ground and on roads and well-made paths 

only. Your e-bike should be used for its intended 

purpose only. 

DANGER! 

Your e-bike is intended for the 

transportation of a single person only.

 

The e-bike is not intended for uses like off-road, 

cross-country, extreme sports, jumps, stunts or similar 

activities. Using the e-bike for other than the intended 

purpose may cause damage to the bike, risk injury, 

and void your warranty on the e-bike.

Pay attention to the maximum permissible total 

weight (total weight of fully assembled EPAC, rider, 

equipment and luggage) which is = 110 kg. If you carry 

cargo or extra weight, make sure the bike is stable 

and is within the maximum permissible total weight

DANGER! 

If luggage is not properly handled and 

secured, sudden shifts in load while 

riding the bike can affect your balance 

and lead to damaging the bike and 

serious injury.

 

•  Your e-bike is not approved for use in 

competitions. 

•  Commercial use does not form part of the 

intended use.

•  The e-bike is not compatible with indoor trainers 

or rollers. Do not attempt to use the bike in 

conjunction with these. 

•  We do not recommend fitting a child seat or trailer 

to the bike. 

Terms of use and maintenance described in 

this manual are part of the intended use. The 

manufacturer or dealer accepts no liability or 

warranty if the e-bike is used out of the intended 

use, when safety instructions are not observed, when 

overloaded or improperly deficiencies are eliminated. 

The warranty does not cover damage caused by 

installation errors, intent, crashes and poor care or 

poor maintenance.

 

6. Legal national and local requirements

If you want to ride your e-bike on public roads, your 

e-bike must be equipped in accordance with national 

and local laws and regulations. It is important to note 

that the specific laws, rules, and guidelines governing 

e-bike use may vary from country to country. 

Pedelecs are limited to 25 km/h (15.5 mph) in Europe. 

In the United States, the limit is 32 km/h (20 mph). 

Motor assistance is cut off above those designated 

speeds. The A-weighted emission sound pressure 

level at the driver’s ears must be less than 70 dB(A).

The braking system of an e-bike must have at least 

two independently functioning brakes (front and 

rear wheel). The mode of operation is not strictly 

regulated.

Pay attention to legal requirements regarding lighting 

and reflectors on your e-bike.

 

In general, pedelecs are viewed by law as more similar 

to a conventional bicycle than a motorised scooter or 

motorcycle. In most cases, an e-bike can be ridden in 

bike lanes, on bike paths, and can be locked to bike 

racks like a regular bike.
