6. Bicycle parts of your Klever 45
km/h E-bike
This chapter explains function, maintenance, service and
operation of the conventional bicycle components which are
not part of the electric drive system. You will find additional
information in the accompanying manuals of the component
suppliers.
6.1 The 45 km/h E-bike, a Type-
approval vehicle with dedicated
equipment
As explained in chapter 2. Type-approval (and further detailed
in the chapters 11. & 12.), the Y Muse 45 is not a regular E-bike,
it is a 45 km/h E-bike. It is an electrically powered vehicle with
a maximum speed of 45 km/h classified in the L1e-B vehicle
category. Consequently, it is a Type-approval vehicle which
has to comply with the European Regulation EC 168/2013.
Therefore, the Y Muse 45 comes with special equipment: a well
audible horn, a brake light and a wing mirror which are in line
with the higher speed of this vehicle (up to 45 km/h) and the
Type-approval requirements.
6.1.1 Horn
The horn is mounted underneath the handlebar (image 6.1)
and can be actuated with a pushbutton at the LH-side of the
handlebar, underneath the LCD display (image 6.2). With this
horn you can notify other road users of your presence on the
road, especially under unclear and crowded traffic conditions.
6.1.2 Brake light
The tail light has an integrated brake light. When actuating
your brake levers the brake light in the rear will start to light
with higher intensity than the regular tail light (image 6.3). In
this way the traffic coming from behind will be notified that
you are braking and your speed is decreasing.
6.1.3 Wing mirror
Your speed pedelec is being equipped with a wing mirror on
the LH-side (UK RH-side) of your handlebar (image 6.4). The
mirror can be adjusted by hand according to your preferred
position. With this mirror you will have eyes on the road users
behind you, especially those who are faster than you and
who are in the process of overtaking you. Consequently, you
don’t need to turn around your head and you are able to keep
your attention on the traffic in front of you and on the traffic
behind you at the same time.
6.2 Saddle and handlebar adjustment
This E-bike comes in two frame sizes (M = Medium and L
= Large). Fitting the frame size to your body can be done
with adjustment of saddle, stem and handlebar. Your dealer
can do this on the spot. In case you want to do the settings
for yourself or for another cyclist, the adjustment is briefly
described below:
Caution! All work described requires the expertise of a
bicycle mechanic and appropriate tools. Use a torque
wrench to tighten the bolts and never exceed the
maximum torque of the bolts. All necessary tooling and
information on the recommended torque can be found in
chapter 14. Technical Data.
Adjustment of the saddle height
You will find the optimal saddle height if you touch the
pedal with the heel of your stretched leg, when sitting on
the saddle. Without having to overstretch your leg and hip.
Alternatively, you bring the ball of your foot to the centre
of the pedal. Your knee should be slightly bent (image 6.5).
Loosen the seat clamp bolt with a 6 mm. Allen key (image 6.6)
and move the seat post with the saddle to its proper height.
Align the saddle with the frame using the saddle nose and the
bottom bracket or the frame tube as references. Fasten the
bolt of the seat clamp again and check the correct height of
the saddle. Repeat the process if necessary until you find the
correct saddle height.
The distance between saddle and handlebar (by pushing the
saddle forward or backward on its rails) and the saddle angle
are adjusted with the 2 saddle clamping bolts of the seat
post and a 5 mm. Allen key (image 6.6). Generally, the saddle
should be positioned horizontally.
