INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on the purchase of your new e-JOE electric bicycle! We want to make you happy and believe your new e-
bike will bring you lots of fun.
We ask that you, please, read this manual thoroughly, paying particular attention to the safety warnings before you start
riding your bicycle.
Please, observe traffic regulations and do not lend your bicycle to anyone unfamiliar with it. It can only be legally used on
the road by a person aged 14 years and older. e-JOE bikes are not designed for use by children. If you decide to use a child
carrier, a child must be wearing a helmet and seated by the carrier manual.
We strongly advise wearing a bicycle helmet at all times when using your e-bike. If you are unfamiliar with cycling, we
suggest taking a cycling proficiency course before using your bicycle.
Remember that this manual makes no representations about the safe use of bicycles under all conditions. There are risks
associated with the use of any bike which cannot be predicted or avoided, and which are the sole responsibility of the rider.
Before you ride your bike for the first time, please, make sure it is correctly assembled. You can do this either by taking it to
your nearest bicycle shop or by inspecting it yourself if you are proficient in bicycle mechanics. You must make sure you
have the pedals, saddle, handlebar, and other items correctly fitted.
Test your brakes every time before using the bicycle and remember the bicycle will not stop as quickly in wet or icy
conditions as it would on a dry road.
Frequently check your tire pressure. The required tire pressure level is indicated on the side of each tire. Low tire pressure
will result in damage to the tires and will massively reduce your speed and range.
NEVER drink alcohol and ride your electric bike. The use of alcohol significantly reduces reflexes and limits your ability to
ride safely. Even a small amount of alcohol limits your ability to be safe on the road.
Please, note that small details or components may variate as we continuously update our product throughout the year. This
does not affect basic installation and assembly.
e-JOE cares for the environment and encourages its customers to dispose of e-JOE products per local regulations. When
you need to dispose of a lithium-ion battery, please, either dispose of the unwanted battery through an approved recycler or
send it back to us and we will make sure it is properly recycled.
Happy cycling!

ASSEMBLY
NOTICE: The following assembly steps are only a general guide to assist in the assembly of your e-JOE Bike and are not a complete or comprehensive
manual of all aspects of assembly, maintenance, and repair. We recommend you consult a certified bicycle mechanic to assist in the assembly, repair,
and maintenance of your bicycle.
EPIK SWAN is shipped 98% assembled. To fully assemble the bike and prepare it for the first use, follow these steps:
STEP 1: UNPACK
•Place the box on the floor as per “This Side Up” sign on the side of the box.
•Prepare the following tools: scissors/cutter, adjustable wrench, and hex key set.
•Open the box by cutting protective tape or straps. If the box has staples on the top fold, be cautious when opening
as they may be sharp.
•Remove the bike out of the box by holding onto the frame (in case the bike is too heavy to pull out of the box, ask
someone for assistance).
•Stand the main body of the electric bike on a kickstand.
•Remove all protective material. Be extra careful when working with the scissors/cutter to avoid scratches.
NOTE: Do not discard the box or any shipping material until you test the bike and make sure it is in good working order.
STEP 2: INSTAL HANDLEBAR & SEAT
With the bike resting on the kickstand, unfold the folding pipe and lock it as shown on page 11. Make sure the folding pipe
locking lever is tightened, and the safety clip ring is in place.
Follow instructions on page 10 to adjust the handlebar position and height. Adjust the seat height. Make sure the quick-
release clamps are properly tightened.
STEP 3: INSTALL PEDALS & INFLATE TIRES
To attach pedals, begin by identifying the right and left pedals. Look for “L” and “R”
marking on the axles, wrench flats, or stickers. If you do not see “L” and “R” markings,
use pedal thread direction to identify pedals. Left threaded pedals (threads sloping
upward to the left) go to the left crank. Right threaded pedals (threads sloping upward to
the right) go to the right crank. See the image if in doubt (Left: left-hand threads on the
left pedal. Right: right-hand threads on the right pedal).
Be sure to grease the pedal threads before installation. Choose the appropriate pedal
and start it into the correct crank arm by hand turning the pedal axle toward the front of the bike (both pedals thread in this
direction). If it does not start, do not force it! You are probably trying to install the left pedal on the right side or vice versa.
Thread both pedals into the crank arms as far as you can by hand. Then fully tighten them with a wrench, so they do not
loosen from pedal pressure. Be careful NOT to overtighten the pedals as it may cause difficulties with their removal in the
future.
Inflate the tires to the proper pressure. You can find the information about the required tire pressure level on the side of each
tire. Make sure to check the pressure before each ride as low tire pressure results in damage to the tires and massively
reduces speed and range.

STEP 4: FINAL PRE-RIDE CHECK
•Check all nuts and bolts and make sure they are properly tightened, paying particular attention to the front wheel
axle nuts, rear wheel axle nuts, kickstand, yoke, and steering head bearings.
•Check the folding lever for the frame (see page 11 for more details).
•Check the folding lever for the handlebar pipe.
•Test the brakes.
•The battery is pre-installed inside the frame. Make sure it is properly locked in the frame. Lock it with a provided key
— place keys in a safe spot.
•Turn on the LCD Display on the handlebar as per instructions on pages 3-5. Make sure the battery is fully charged,
wear a helmet and… continue reading this manual thoroughly, paying particular attention to the safety warnings
before you start riding your bicycle.
For your safety you need to understand how things work on your bicycle and make certain, all parts are correctly assembled.
We urge you to consult your dealer before the first use and have your dealer check your work before you ride the bike. If you
have even the slightest doubt about your knowledge or bike’s assembly, talk to your dealer.

bicycle components and wires for any signs of damage. Disconnect and re-connect main wire harness at the handlebar,
recharge battery, and check LCD again. Contact your dealer for further instructions.
For more information about the display and its settings, visit the official LCD manual.
THROTTLE
EPIK SWAN is equipped with a throttle that allows to speed up to 20 mph without pedaling at all. The thumb throttle is
mounted on the right side of the handlebar.
The throttle is activated starting from PAS level 1. It will not engage the motor with PAS level 0. To use the throttle, slowly
press its lever with your thumb to apply power to the motor. The throttle provides smooth acceleration when applied
gradually.
The throttle mechanism allows full power to be activated from a stop, and inexperienced users should take extra care when
first applying the throttle. We recommend beginning the ride with pedaling first and then applying the throttle.
Always be aware of your surroundings. Do not use the throttle unless you are on the bike. As a precaution, switch PAS level
to 0 or turn off the LCD after riding to avoid accidental activating of the throttle or PAS.
PEDAL ASSIST SYSTEM (PAS)
A pedal assistance feature is a powerful option, and users must understand how to operate it before the first ride.
EPIK SWAN offers five levels of cadence PAS. The cadence sensor is attached to the bottom bracket behind the pedal
crank arm. Switching from level 0 to 1 activates the pedal assist sensor. As soon as the pedals start rotating (with PAS level
1-5), the sensor catches the signal and turns on the motor to provide a cyclist with an appropriate amount of power. The
higher the level of PAS, the more power it provides. The electric motor assists up to 20 mph and cuts out if pedaling faster
than that.
It is recommended to pedal the bicycle with the Pedal Assist System mode ON, choose appropriate gear, refrain from
unnecessary braking, and coast as much as possible. When riding your e-bike with the low battery power, it is
recommended to pedal your e-bike as much as possible and get the battery charged up as soon as you get to an electrical
outlet.
As a precaution, switch PAS level to 0 or turn off the LCD after riding to avoid accidental activating of the throttle or PAS.

BATTERY & CHARGER
BATTERY
EPIK SWAN is delivered with the battery pre-installed inside the frame and
partially charged. A charger is shipped in a separate box. A unique set of keys is
provided. A spring lock keeps the battery in place and provides safety from theft.
The battery is removable and can be charged either inside or outside of the
frame. To remove it, insert the key into the lock and turn it counter clockwise until
the top portion of the battery pops out of the frame. When installing the battery back into the frame, do not force it in. Slowly
insert the battery while making sure it is correctly seated against its housing in the frame. Push the top portion of the battery
until the spring lock clicks and secures the battery in place.
NOTE: The keys are to unlock the battery only. Turning the key DOES NOT act as the ignition for the battery or motor. Keep
in mind that e-JOE does not carry copies of the keys. It is recommended to store one key in a safe location in case the first
key is lost.
To check the battery charge level, long press the button on the battery until the color light up (green = top charge, red = low
charge, or blue = mid charge) or use the charge indicator on the LCD Display.
BATTERY CHARGER
Always use the charger provided by e-JOE for your specific bicycle and battery
type. The charger works on 110/220V 50/60Hz standard home AC power outlets. If
you plan on moving from the USA, double-check the charger specifications and the
local standards.
CHARGING PROCEDURE
1) Place the charger and battery indoors in a dry ventilated area away from
sunlight with the temperature 50-80F.
2) With the battery inside or outside of the frame, locate the charging port on
the left side at the top of the battery pack.
3) Connect the AC input plug into the outlet. The LED light on the charger
should turn GREEN (Charge).
4) Connect the DC output plug from the charger to the battery port. The LED
light on the charger should turn RED (Charge in the process).
5) When the battery is fully charged, the LED light on the charger should turn
GREEN (Fully Charged).
6) Unplug the charger from the battery first and then from the outlet.
While the charger automatically stops charging when the battery is full, we strongly recommend not to leave the battery
connected to the charger and outlet for a lengthy period. The average time for charging from low to full is approximately 4 to
6 hours. As the battery ages after 2-3 years of use, you may notice increased charging times and decreased range. If the
battery does not seem to be charging, as usual, discontinue charging/using it and contact e-JOE or dealer for assistance.

BASIC BATTERY CARE & MAINTENANCE
•Keep your lithium battery charged
Lithium batteries are generally best kept 80% charged. Do NOT use your battery in a very low state. Completely
discharging a lithium battery below safe levels can cause irreparable damage to the cells and diminish its capacity. If
you do "flatten" your battery, fully re-charge it as soon as possible. To prevent the battery from irreparable damage,
never leave a battery wholly depleted or drained.
•Keep your electric bike battery clean and dry
Contacts on the battery should be clean and dry to avoid oxidation and corrosion, which would weaken the ability of
the battery to power the bike. Check the contacts every few months.
•Keep your lithium batteries cool
The lithium battery is best stored in cool conditions. While storing batteries in cool conditions is good, always
remember to warm the battery to room temperature before charging or using it in the bike.
•Plan for long-term storage of your electric bike
If you know you are not going to use your battery for a few months, it is wise to take some extra precautions. To
reduce the loss of capacity over time, yet still preserve the battery, it is best to store it at about 80% charge. You can
estimate this by riding your e-bike for about 20% of the average distance with a fully-charged battery. It's best then
to store the battery in a cool well-ventilated place. To prevent premature failure of your battery and for the warranty
on your battery to remain in effect, it is recommended to charge the battery at least once per month.
IMPORTANT SAFETY WARNINGS!
●Connect the charger to the outlet first, and then to the battery. Connecting the unplugged charger directly to the
battery may create a spark.
●While charging, place the battery and charger in a secure place where children or pets cannot reach it.
●Avoid any contact with water while charging; prevent liquids, metal, and metal filings from permeating the charger.
●Do not put anything on top of the charger while charging; it must be well ventilated to allow the heat that is generated
to dissipate.
●Stop charging the battery immediately if you notice a peculiar smell or the charger gets too hot to touch.
●Do not touch the poles of the battery. The battery poles should not be touched with any other metal or other material
that conducts electricity.
●Be careful not to drop or hit the battery or the charger as it may damage its components.
●It is normal for the distance range to reduce as a result of cells aging or battery use in low or high temperatures.
●Do not attempt to open or repair your charger or battery. Doing so voids the warranty and can result in a safety
hazard. Contact your local e-JOE Bike Dealer or e-JOE technical support.
●When you need to dispose of a lithium-ion battery, either dispose of the unwanted battery through an approved
recycler or send it to e-JOE. We will make sure it is properly recycled.
●Never dispose of batteries in fire because they may explode.

9
BRAKES
EPIK SWAN has a mechanic disk brake system installed on both wheels, front and rear, to control the braking of the
bicycle. The system has an electrical cut-off function, an important safety feature of all e-JOE electric bikes. It disengages
the motor when the brake levers are squeezed. Therefore, it is critical to make sure the brake system works properly.
Brake Precautions
●Test your brakes every time before using the bicycle and remember the bicycle will not stop as quickly in wet or icy
conditions as it would on a dry road.
●The brake system requires regular cleaning, maintenance, and adjustment. Have your brakes inspected and
serviced regularly by an experienced mechanic (every six months to a year should be sufficient for occasional
cyclists). Take your bike in more often if you ride or use brakes frequently.
●Remember which wheel is controlled by which brake.
●Do not brake too strongly or abruptly, as it will make it easier for you to fall.
●Incline your body backward to reduce the influence of inertia.
●The brake system includes brake pads which gradually wear down due to normal use. When the brake pads wear
out, repair or replace them as soon as possible.
●Over time disc brakes lose some of their effectiveness. This leads to longer response times, less efficient braking,
and less bike control. If you start experiencing such issues, hear a squeaking noise when braking, lack stopping
power, refrain from using the bike and bring it to a local bike shop for inspection & service.
DRIVETRAIN & GEARS
The drivetrain of the bicycle consists of all parts that you use to push or pull the bike along. The key components are the
pedals, cranks, chain, freewheel, gear shifter, and rear derailleur.
Gears are there to enable you to maintain a comfortable pedaling speed (or cadence) regardless of the gradient or terrain
— something that single gear is not capable of.
EPIK SWAN comes with seven (7) gears. To change the gear while riding, press + or – of the shifter on the right side of the
handlebar until you reach your desired gear. The gears are switched by the rear derailleur located on the right side of the
rear wheel. The derailleur moves the chain up or down the freewheel setting it to the desired gear.
●The gear setting is displayed on the shifter. The higher the gear number, the more resistance is given when
pedaling.
●The combination of pedaling and gear effects the battery range when riding with pedal-assist. If you are riding uphill
or in the areas where it becomes difficult to pedal, shift to a lower gear. If you find that you are moving faster than
you can comfortably pedal, try moving to a higher gear. This will help conserve battery power and achieve
comfortable pedaling.
●It is easier to start riding if the bike is set to a lower gear.
●If you experience “skipping” of gears, noisy switching, bring the bike to an experienced mechanic for adjustment.
●Keeping your derailleur, chain, and freewheel clean, lubricated, and moving freely will expand their service life and
avoid costly repairs.
●If you need to service the pedals, follow instructions on page 3 for their removal and installation.

SEAT & HANDLEBAR
Appropriate adjustments can be made to seat (or saddle) & handlebar height according to personal preference.
QUICK-RELEASE CLAMP
The clamps that hold handlebar or seat posts in place are called quick-release clamps. If you need to tighten or loosen the
clamp, use an adjustment knob located on the opposite side from the quick-release lever. Open the lever and turn the
adjustment knob clockwise. As you tighten the adjustment knob, you'll be able to close the lever more securely. In case you
tighten the knob too much, you won't be able to close the lever at all. Repeat this process until you find a "happy medium"
point where the lever is tight enough to hold the post, but not so tight that you cannot close the lever all the way.
MAX MARK LINE
When adjusting the height of the seat or handlebar posts, it is forbidden to expose
the MAX mark line (also called, the safety line or infix notation). If used
inappropriately, it may cause serious injury to the rider.
SEAT HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
Stand over the frame and sit on the saddle. Step on the pedal with your heel.
Rotate the pedal to its lowest position while straightening the leg. The height is best
suited when the leg is straightened out with a slightly bent knee. If the leg is
excessively bent, raise the seat. If your knee is fully extended, lower the seat.
To do so, unlatch quick-release lever on the seat tube and move vertical stem to appropriate height, making sure not to
exceed the safety MAX mark. Point the front tip of the seat towards the handlebar along the frame. Close the quick-release
lever while making sure it’s tight enough to keep the seat post in place.
SEAT POSITION ADJUSTMENT
The seat should be at a neutral position allowing the rider to sit on the middle portion of it without sliding forward onto the
nose or backward off the rear of the saddle. The seat position can be adjusted by loosening the seat clamp under the seat
and sliding the seat forward or backward. Be sure to loosen the clamp only enough to move the seat. You may need to test-
ride the bike with the new adjustment several times until you make sure this seat position is the most comfortable.
HANDLEBAR ADJUSTMENT
Similar to the seat, handlebar height can be adjusted to achieve a comfortable riding
position. To do so, unlatch quick-release lever on the folding pipe and move vertical
stem to appropriate height, making sure not to exceed the safety MAX mark.
If you wish to adjust handlebar position, loosen the top quick-release clamp in the
middle of the handlebar. Rotate the handlebars so that the brakes are at a 45-degree
angle to the ground. Tighten the lever.
Check to ensure the handlebar, handlebar folding pipe, and seat post are properly
fastened, aligned, and fitted to the user. Ensure all hardware securing the handlebar
and seat is properly tightened, including quick-release levers.

GENERAL OPERATION & MAINTENANCE
Like any other mean of transportation, electric bicycle and its components are subject to wear and tear. When comparing to
regular bicycles, the rate of wear for electric bikes is higher due to its weight and speed; it does not mean the components
are defective or of low quality. The rate of wear depends on the way of use (mileage, terrain, weather conditions, etc.), as well
as level of care and maintenance.
The use of a bicycle in competitive events, aggressive riding, riding on severe terrain/climates, riding with heavy loads,
commercial activities and other types of non-standard use can dramatically shorten the life of the bicycle and its components.
Be sure to use your bicycle for its intended purpose only.
●Always follow the instructions described throughout this manual and abide by local regulations.
●If you have the slightest doubt about your knowledge about the bicycle, its assembly or operation, visit the local
dealer.
●Have the bike inspected by a professional mechanic after the first 60 miles of riding and every 300 miles.
●Wheel spokes should be adjusted every 300 miles of riding.
●Keep your lithium battery charged, dry, and stored in cool conditions.
●Handlebar and saddle posts should never be raised beyond the maximum safety line around the tubes.
●Your bike has a rear derailleur that will automatically tension your chain. However, if the chain becomes loose or
frequently comes off the front cog, you can adjust the chain tension by loosening the rear axle nuts slightly and
adjusting the tension bolts. Make sure the chain runs freely and retighten the axle nuts.
●Disc brake calipers, rotors, and brake pads get extremely hot after bike use. Do not touch these parts after a ride and
be sure to allow some time for the brake system to cool down before attempting service.
●Head/back-lights, bell, and reflectors are important safety cycling devices. Check reflectors and their mounting
brackets regularly to make sure they are clean, straight, unbroken and securely mounted.
●Ensure handlebar grips are not damaged and properly installed. Loose/damaged grips can cause loss of control and
falling.
●In case you hear an unusual noise, experience “wobbly” motion of wheels, lack of braking power, intermittent pedal
assistance, or other unusual signs when operating the bicycle, stop using it and visit a local dealer for inspection.
●Leaving a bicycle standing in the open or not using it for long periods may be subject to increased wear through
weathering and deterioration. You should have your bicycle, and its components checked periodically by your dealer
for indicators of stress and potential failure, including cracks, corrosion, deformation, dents, paint peeling, and any
other indicators of potential problems, inappropriate use or abuse. These checks are important to ensure all
components function safely and reliably and to help prevent any accidents or injuries to the rider.
IMPORTANT! Do not attempt to open the casings of the battery, motor, or controller; it could be dangerous and will void any
warranties by doing so. If you experience a problem, please contact our service department or your local dealer.
WATER
•Your electric bicycle is rain and splash resistant. Please, use caution; do not operate your bicycle or leave outside
in bad weather conditions.
●The electric components, such as the LCD, motor, battery, and controller, MUST NOT be submerged in water.
●To prevent rust or corrosion, dry off bicycle and components after riding and store bike and battery in a dry location.
DO NOT turn on the bike after exposure to water. Dry it thoroughly first!
●To avoid electric shock and damage to your product, do not charge the battery while it is wet or in an area where it
could get wet. Do not handle a bicycle, charger, or cords with wet hands while charging.
