Do I have to pedal?
No. There is both a throttle and a pedal assist system. You can pedal and the elec-
tric motor will kick in and provide you with assistance, and there is also a thumb
throttle that will override the pedal assist and allow you to ride the SS more like a
motorcycle, only silent! The level of pedal assistance will determine how much
boost power the motor provides based on your peddling input. Level 1 will be just a
little and level 3 will get you moving like a pro cyclist. The throttle is always
0-100% power depending on how much you twist.
