Maintenance Instructions
Traditionally, the right brake lever will control the rear brake, while the left brake lever will control
the front brake. However, this may va depending on what count you are in, and can always be
adjusted to suit your own preference.
To check which conguration your eBike is set up with, squeeze one brake lever and look to see
whether the front or rear brake engages. Now do the same with the other brake lever. Remember
this conguration.
While you are testing the brake conguration, make sure that your hands can comfoably reach
and squeeze the levers with no issues. If you experience any issues or discomfo operating the
brakes, please reach out to us before riding
It’s impoant that your learn, and remember, which brake lever controls each
brake (front/rear) in order to ensure your safety.
BRAKES
1.Test your brake tension by squeezing your brake levers.
If they feel too loose, adjust the tension by twisting the
barrel adjusters on either side.
Disc Brakes
13
Riding with worn brake pads, improperly installed brakes, or wheels where you can visibly see
the wear from the brake pads, is dangerous and can result in serious inju or death.
Applying the brakes suddenly or with too much pressure can result in your wheel locking up.
This can cause you to lose control and fall. Some brakes (like hydraulic disc brakes) are incredi�
bly poweul, so it’s impoant that you take extra care when becoming familiar with using these
brakes.
Disc rotors have sharp edges, exercise caution when handling them during maintenance.
Sudden or excessive application of the front brake may pitch the rider over the handlebars.
Tip: Twist clockwise to decrease tension, and counterclockwise to increase tension.
WARNING!
14
Inating a tire beyond the maximum pressure can blow the tire o the rim, resulting
in damage to the bike and potential inju to the rider.
Your Spark Y will come standard with 26” X 4.8” CST fat tires. It’s impoant that you understand
the
appropriate conditions and terrain these tires can handle, in order to ensure safe riding
Using a bike specic tire pump with a built-in pressure gauge is highly recommended. If
you do not have access to one, or do not feel comfoable inating them yourself, please seek
professional assistance from your local bike shop.
High tire pressures work best for smooth, d pavement rides, while low pressures give the best
peormance on smooth, slick terrain. However, increasing or decreasing tire pressure will have
no aect on the terrain that the tire is designed to handle. A road tire at low pressure still cannot
handle terrains such as clay or sand.
TIRES
Size, pressure rating and other information can often be found on the sidewall of the tire. Tire pres�
sure is the most key piece of information for you to remember
Tire Pressure
15
If the batte becomes physically damaged, non-functional, has been dropped, or
involved in a crash, or you notice it peorming abnormally, please discontinue use
and contact ESKUTE BIKE immediately.
It’s impoant to follow these instructions and safety tips in order to presee the longevity of your
batte’s life and ensure proper peormance.
Fully charge the batte before each ride to make sure it’s ready to go the full range. This will help
reduce the chance of over-discharging the batte.
If you are unsure, reach out to us or your local bike shop to determine the best tire pressure for
the kind of riding you will do most often.
BATTERY CARE
TThe charger is rated for 100-240V. Be sure to check the charger, charging cables, and batte for
damage before beginning each charge.
Charging time takes about 4-6 hours. On rare occasion, it may take longer to allow the batte to
fully charge, paicularly when the bike is new or has been stored for long period of time.
Charging Your Batte
16
Only charge the batte with the supplied ESKUTE charger, as others may cause
damage to the batte or increase the possibility of re or explosion.

batte cells are properly balanced in order to optimize batte longevity.
