Handlebar Components:
The thumb-throttle, brake levers and display unit need to be mounted to the handlebars. The installation
procedure for these parts may vary a little from bike to bike, but follow the guide below for a general
overview.
The display would normally be fitted to the left side of the handlebars just to the right of the grip, this way
the buttons can be easily reached with a thumb . To fit the thumb-throttle, slide the grip off the right side,
loosen the existing components such as the shifter, brake lever etc. then slide the thumb-throttle on and
then secure it (and the other components) in position.
Depending on the configuration of the bike, it may be more practical to mount the throttle and display in
slightly different locations or on opposite sides.
If you have hydraulic brakes or brake levers which have an integral gear shifter, you will need to use a
different brake sensor arrangement. The way these sensors work is that as the magnet is moved away
from the sensor, the brake cut-out is activated. A typical installation would look similar to the below.
The next step is to run the modular cable (for the LCD, throttle and brake cut-outs) from the front of the
bike back to the controller .
