6.3 The suspension front fork
The suspension front fork of your E-bike improves the riding
comfort. This front fork is pre-set with factory settings
(Image 6.11).
For the long-term proper functioning of the front fork regular
maintenance is required. Have your Klever dealer check the
suspension front fork at least once a year during the annual
inspection. Some basic tips for the fork maintenance at home:
• Clean the smooth surfaces of the stanchion tubes with a
cloth and a little water.
• After cleaning spray some water-repellent oil on the
stanchion tubes for lubrication of the bushings and for a
plush suspension function.
Caution! Never use a high-pressure cleaner or
aggressive detergents for the maintenance of the front
fork. Pay attention to the maintenance instructions in
the manual of the fork supplier.
6.4 Disc brakes
Your E-bike has disc brakes (image 6.12) with an excellent
braking performance, even under rainy weather and other
bad weather conditions. They are low maintenance and do
not wear the rim. While actuating the brake lever, the oil
pressure is being transmitted through the hose into the brake
calliper. This makes the brake pads contact the disc rotor.
Both brake levers have a brake switch sensor. When the brake
lever is being actuated the brake switch instantly cuts off the
electric motor support and at the same time activates the
regeneration function (see section 5.4.3 Submenu ASSIST/
REGEN).
Please note! New brake pads must be run-in in order
to achieve their best deceleration values. By braking at
least 30 times from approximately 30 km/h to complete
standstill the brake pads will achieve their maximum
brake power.

Please note!Pay attention to the recommended torque
when tightening the various bolts (see chapter 14.
Technical Data).
Caution! The seat post may never be installed over the
minimum insertion mark (image 6.7). Otherwise, the post
could possibly break during riding, which could lead to
injuries.
Handlebar adjustment
The handlebar can be adjusted to your personal preferences,
by changing the angle of the handlebar stem and the height
of the handlebar. Your Klever dealer will be happy to set the
handlebar to your liking. However, in case you intend to
adjust the handlebar by yourself, then proceed as follows:
• Loosen the big pivotal M8 bolt of the adjustable stem with a
6 mm. Allen key and adjust the angle of the stem (image 6.8).
• With the angle adjustment you can move the handlebar
towards the rider as well as further away from the rider.
Once you find the proper position of the handlebar, tighten
the M8 bolt with the correct torque.
• After adjusting the stem, you may have to adjust the
position of the handlebar too. Loosen the 2 M5 bolts on the
bottom side of the head of the stem with a 4 mm. Allen key
(image 6.9).
• Please note that the adjustment of the angle of the
handlebar may have altered the position of the brake
levers, the display and the shifter too. If necessary, you can
adjust the position of these components as well. Loosen
the Allen key bolts and screws of the display, brake levers
and shifter. Turn display, brake levers and shifter into the
correct position. And keep in mind that your hands should
be resting on the handlebar in a relaxed way and should not
be forced into an unnatural position (image 6.10). Finally
tighten the Allen key bolts with the correct torque.
• You may have to repeat these steps a couple of times in
order to find the most convenient position according to
your liking and needs.
Caution! Please check whether the handlebar is correctly
tightened. You should not be able to twist the handlebar
while putting full force on the grips.
