GETTING STARTED
1.Assembling: 1) Open the box, take out your eBike,
and remove the packaging. 2) Mount the front
wheel to the front fork, and tighten the screws to
lock into place. 3) Assemble and align the handlebar
upon the riser, and lock into place. 4) Walk the eBike
to ensure no abnormal sound from the turning
wheels. Gently pull the brake levers for a couple of
times to ensure both the front and rear brakes
function normally. 5) Adjust the seat tube to desired
height, and lock the quick release. 6) Install the
pedals and tighten up. (Please wear a helmet when
riding the eBike.)
2.Charging: Connect the DC jack of the original
charger to the charging slot of your eBike, and the
AC plug to the mains. The charger light turns from
red to green when charging is complete. (Please do
not charge your eBike indoors. For outdoors
charging, please avoid rain and strong direct sun
over the charger.)
3. Power on and off: Locate the power button on the
left handle. Press “M” to power on and the display
shall turn on as well. Press again to power off.
4. Headlight: Locate the light switch at the left
handle. When power is on, press “ ” button
and hold it for three seconds to switch the headlight
on and off.
5. Walking Mode: Locate the button “ ” at
the left handle. Press and hold it for three seconds
to activate the Walking Mode which maintains a
riding speed of 6 km/h (or 3.73 mph). To disable the
Walking Mode, press the button again, or pull the
brake levers.
6. Shifting mode (motor speed): Locate the switch
button on the left handle. Press “ ”shift
the motor speed. Mode 1/2/3 corresponds to the
motor-powered maximum speed of 15 km/h (or 9.32
mph), 25 km/h (or 15.53 mph) and 32 km/h (19.88
mph).
7. Display: The display in the center of the
handlebar shows battery level, speed, mode,
mileage, lights and failure report.
8. Riding modes:
a. Sports Mode: Power is off and there is no motor
output. Pedal and exercise.
b. Throttle Mode: When the power is on, twist the
throttle to accelerate and start the ride without
pedaling.
c. Pedal Assist Mode: When the power is on and
while you are pedaling, the motor also provides
power for an easier and more energy-efficient ride.
9. Power cut-off brakes: When you pull the brake
levers, the controller cuts off the motor output. The
mechanical disc brakes are also engaged. As long as
the brake levers are not completely released, Pedal
Assist Mode or Throttle Mode remains disabled.
10. Removing and installing the battery: This
battery is removable. To remove it, open the battery
lock, turn the clip, pull downward to reveal the
upper part of the battery first before pulling the
entire battery out. To install the battery, start with
the bottom of the battery, slide it in through the
battery tube, push in the upper part, turn the clip,
and lock the battery. (For battery replacement upon
damage, please contact our official customer
service.)

INSTALLING THE FRONT WHEEL
Installing the Front Wheel
I. Basic mechanical principle with the hub and anchor nuts
Turn the anchor nuts clockwise to increase clamping, and anti-clockwise to decrease.
II. How to install
1. Manually turn the anchor nuts anti-clockwise to loosen for space, and insert the front
wheel all the way into the dropouts of the front fork.
2. Manually turn the anchor nuts clockwise to fasten up. Ensure that the front wheel is located at
the very center of the front fork, and that the disc brake rotor is parallel to the disc brake caliper
towards the end of the front fork with space in between. Keep some space on both sides, and
tighten into place with a spanner as indicated below.

GEARS
DERAILLEUR SYSTEM
Some DYU eBikes come with gears, which consists of:
• Rear sprocket cluster, called freewheel or cog set
• Rear derailleur
• Shifter
• Control cable
• Front sprocket, called chaining
• Drive chain
The gear mechanism differs in ergonomic design, performance and price.
A downshift is a shift to a lower or slower gear, which makes pedaling easier. An upshift is a shift to a
higher or faster gear, which makes pedaling harder. In practice, you can upshift to go faster, and you can
downshift to go uphill.
A shift is possible only when you are pedaling forward, i.e. the drive chain is moving forward and under
some tension.
CAUTION
Never shift when pedaling backward. Also, do not pedal backwards after a shift. Either action may jam the
chain and cause serious damage to your eBike.
The derailleur system includes front and rear derailleurs,
shift levers, and derailleur control cables. For smooth
shifting, all components must function properly.
Although the front and rear derailleurs are initially
adjusted in the factory, you need to inspect them before
each ride.
To begin, twist the shifter to the largest number indicated,
and the cable shall loosen the anchor bolt on the rear
derailleur, placing the chain on the smallest sprocket.
Adjust the high limit screw so that the guide pulley and the
smallest sprocket are lined up vertically. Re-tighten the
cable, pull out any slack, and re-tighten the anchor bolt
securely. Shifting through the gears, making sure that
each gear is achieved quietly and swiftly.
If necessary, use the barrel adjuster to fine tune the cable
tension by turning it the direction you want the chain to go.
For example, turning clockwise loosens cable tension and
moves the chain away from the wheel, while turning
counter-clockwise tightens cable tension and direct the
chain towards the wheel.
