7 - SAFETY - RECOMMENDATIONS
Regularly check the following:
•
The tightness of the wheels (25 Nm for the front, 25 NM for the rear).
•
Tyre wear (replace the tyre as soon as the wear indicator has been reached) and adjust the pressure to
between 60 and 65 psi (2.8 to 4.5 bars). Your bic
ycle’s tyres are compatible with the rim base, so no
modifications must be made to these. Only the appropriate spare parts (tyres, inner tubes, brake friction
elements, etc.) are to be used. Contact your dealer for more information.
•
Check the tightness of the handlebars (11 - 12 Nm), pedals (20 Nm), and saddle (8 Nm).
Because of its weight and the inertia due to the motor, you should allow for longer braking distances when
riding your electric bike, especially in rainy weather.
Your e-bike is adapted for use in cities and on road trips.
Do not use your e-bike as an all-terrain bike.
On public roads, everybody who rides a bike must respect and apply the provisions of the highway code of the
country they are in as well as the legal requirements for this type of transport. (e.g., lights, signalling, wearing
a helmet (recommended), reflective devices, etc.).
For the safe use of your bike, we recommend periodically checking and inspecting: the brakes (wear of the
pads), the condition of the wheel rims and spokes (wear of the wheel rims and spokes), the condition of the
tyres, the steering (fastenings, tightness of the wheel nuts) and all other parts specific to your vehicle. The
wheel rims must be smooth, without any cracks, breakage, or deformities. If you notice any anomaly with the
wheel rims, please get them checked immediately.
WARNING! Like any mechanical component, a bicycle is also subject to high levels of stress and wear. Different
materials and components may react differently to wear or erosion. If the predicted lifespan of a component
has been exceeded, it may break suddenly, potentially causing injury to the rider. Cracks, scratches, and
discolouration in areas that are subjected to high stress indicate that the component has exceeded its lifespan
and should be replaced.
For your safety, it is equally important to replace any critical components that are showing signs of wear or any
other problem (e.g., tyres, wheel rims, etc.) with original parts. Contact your dealer.
Do not sit on the bike when it is on its stand, as there is a risk that it may break and you could
have an abrupt fall
.
Stay alert; do not spend too much time looking at th
e bike’s display while you are
riding.
For your safety, it is recommended to routinely have the bike lights on.
We strongly recommend that you wear a helmet.
Wearing a high-visibility vest is advisable when riding in rural areas, in traffic at night, or on days when the
visibility is poor.
