NOTICE: The following steps are only a general guide to assist in the assembly of your ebike and are
not a complete or comprehensive manual of all aspects of assembly, maintenance, and repair. Consult
a certified, reputable bike mechanic to assist with assembly, repair, and maintenance of your ebike.
Step 2. Remove all the package foam and ribbon. (Be gentle if you use scissors)
.
Step 3. A. Remove the stem rubber cover, loosen the bolt using a 5mm hex key, and discard the plastic white
protective guard
Step 4: Install the front wheel
A. Remove the plastic insert by stepping one foot on it then lifting the fork.
10
B. Place the handlebar onto the stem with the display facing upwards. Remove the top cap and use a 5mm
hex key to tighten the screw in order to secure the handlebar stem. Reinsert the rubber cover back into
the top cap.

11
B. Carefully install the front wheel and make sure the brake rotor sits in between the braking pads in the
brake caliper; the flat washer on the axle should sit outside of the fork dropout.
Caution: Never touch the brake rotor, especially when the wheel and/or bike is in motion, or serious injury could occur. Hand
oils can cause squeaking and decrease brake performance.
Step 5: Put the kickstand down to hold the bike up
Step 6: Adjusting the display and handlebar
A. Stand in front of the bike and clamp front wheel between both legs, verify the handlebars are straight and
in line with the frontwheel. Make sure the pinch bolts are tight and you can not turn the stem freely from
the front wheel.
WARNING: an improperly secured front wheel and/or handlebar stem can cause loss of control, accidents,
serious injury, or death. Check that the front wheel and handlebar stem are properly secured to
the bike during assemly and before each ride
C. Use a 15mm open wrench to tight the wheel axle bolt to recommended torque value at 25-30Nm.

12
B. Sit on the saddle, adjust the display and handlebar to the desired position and thighten the screws which
secure it to the handlebar.
C. Rotate the handlebar height/angle to the desired position then use a 3mm hex key to tighten the screws
securing it to the frame.

Step 7: Pedal Installation
Use a pedal wrench to install the pedals. Locate the pedal with a smooth pedal axle enterior and an "R"
stamped into the end of the pedal axle (1, below), which indicate it is the right pedal. The right pedal goes
on the crank on the right side of the bike (which has the drivechain gears and is the same as a rider's right
side when riding).
The right pedal (1) is threaded so that it is tightened by turning clockwise. Apply grease to the thread and
carefully thread the right pedal onto the crank on the right side of the bike slowly and by hand. Do not cross thread or
damage the threads.
The left pedal (2) is reverse-threaded and tightens counterclockwise. Ensure the remaining pedal has notches
on the exterior of the axle and an “L” stamped into the end of the axle. Apply grease and carefully thread the pedal onto the
left crank by hand slowly. Do not cross thread or damage the threads.
Torque each pedal to 35 Nm.
Identifying marks Right pedal (has a "R" sticker) tightens clockwise Left pedal (has a "L" sticker) tightens
counterclockwise

13
Step 9: Inflate the tires. Check that the tire beads and tires are evenly seated on the rims. Use a pump with
a Schrader valve and pressure gauge to inflate each tire to the recommended pressure indicated on the tire
sidewall, 50-80PSI. Do not overinflate or underinflate tires.
Step 10: Set the desired seat height. Open the quick release lever by hinging it open fully. Adjust the
seatpost up or down to a comfortable height, while ensuring the seatpost is inserted into the frame past the

press the rubber caps on both sides. (Rubber caps are in the accessories box)
Note: Part of the plastic motor protector may break and will be left inside the freewheel. Use a pair of pliers
to carefully remove it.

14
Step 11: Check if the key and battery lock have the same serial number.
If needed, use the thumb nut to add tension to the clamp so there is some resistance when the lever is in
line with the clamp bolt, but do not over-tighten. Close the quick release lever to secure the seat-post and
check that it cannot move.
Step 12: Check Battery
Quick press the button on the battery, you can tell how much energy left by the light color. Blue light
means the energy level is over 66%. Green light means the energy level is 33%-66%. Red light means the
energy level is under 33%.

the motor.
 Turn the power and any lights o to conserve battery.
 Ensure the battery is locked to the frame in the o position or use the key to remove the battery and
bring it with you for security or storing in a temperature-controlled location.
 Park indoors when possible. If you must park outdoors in rain or wet conditions, leave your
ebike outside for only a few hours and then park it in a dry location as soon as possible to allow all of the
systems to dry out. As with a regular bike, an ebike used in wet conditions needs more frequent
maintenance to prevent rust, corrosion, etc. and to ensure all systems are working safely.
 In public places, your bike from Aventon Bikes must be parked in accordance with local rules and
regulations.
 Locking up your bike is recommended to ensure your bike is secure and the chance of theft is reduced.
Aventon Bikes makes no claims or recommendations on the proper lock hardware or procedures to secure
your bike, but we do recommend you take appropriate precautions to keep your bike safe from theft.
 Do not park, store, or transport your bike from Aventon Bikes on a vehicle rack not designed for the
bike s size and weight.
 Use a vehicle rack compatible with the width of tires used on your bike. Some racks may not
accommodate all tire widths.
 When carrying your bike on a vehicle rack for transport, unlock and remove the battery. This will reduce
the weight of the bike, make lifting and loading easier, and allow you to protect the battery by transporting
it in the cab of a vehicle.
 Avoid transporting bikes from Aventon Bikes on a vehicle rack during rain, as this may cause water
damage to the electrical components. Contact Aventon Bikes Product Support if you have questions
about preventative measures.

DRIVING RANGE
The range of your bike from Aventon Bikes is the distance the bike will travel on a single full charge of the
onboard battery. The range values in this manual are estimated based on expected usage characteristics of
bikes by Aventon Bikes. Some of the factors that aect range include in elevation, speed, payload,
acceleration, number of starts and stops, ambient air temperature, tire pressure, and terrain.
We suggest that you select a lower assistance level when you first get your bike from Aventon
Bikes to get to know your bike and travel routes. Once you become familiar with the range
requirements of your travel routes and the capabilities of your bike, you can then adjust your
riding characteristics if you desire so. The following table provides general range estimates
based on various factors. This table is meant to help owners to understand the factors that can
contribute to decreased range, but Aventon Bikes makes no claims to the range that individual
users might experience in a particular use case.

Regular inspection and maintenance are key to ensure Aventon Bikes function as intended, and to
reduce wear and tear on their systems. Recommended service intervals are meant to be used as
guidelines. Real world wear and tear, and the need for service, will vary with conditions of use. We
generally recommend inspections, service, and necessary replacements be performed at the time
or mileage interval that comes first in the following table.
Notice: Before every ride, and after every 25-45 miles (40-72 km), we advise following the pre-ride
safety checklist.
Basic Bike Care
If you do not have the experience, skill, and tools to complete maintenance and adjustment of
your bike, Aventon Bikes strongly recommends having a certified, reputable bike mechanic maintain,
tune, and ensure the bike is safe to ride.
