Riding with improperly installed brakes is dangerous and can
result in serious injury or death.
Applying the brakes suddenly or with too much pressure can result
in your wheels locking up. This can cause you to lose control and fall.
Some brakes are incredibly powerful, so it’s important that you take extra
care when becoming familiar with using these brakes.
Disc brakes can get extremely hot during and after extended use. Be
careful not to touch a disc brake until it has had plenty of time to
cool. This is especially important to remember if you are performing
maintenance that requires you to remove the front or rear wheel.
Disc rotors have sharp edges, exercise caution when handling them
during maintenance.
Review the brake manufacturer’s user manuals and be sure to properly
care for your brakes. It’s your responsibility to be able to recognize when
your brake pads need to be replaced.
Sudden or excessive application of the front brake may pitch the rider
over the handlebars.

Tire Pressure
 Tirescomeavailableinmanydifferentsizesandtheirusescanrangefrom

Inating a tire beyond the maximum pressure can blow the tire off the rim,
resulting in damage to the bike and potential injury to the rider.
 Usingabikespecictirepumpwithabuilt-inpressuregaugeishighly
recommended.Ifyoudonothaveaccesstoone,ordonotfeelcomfortableinating

Be sure to check your tire pressure frequently (at least every week) using
a high quality dial gauge.

We recommend carrying a spare inner tube with you when riding your
bike, as patching a tube is an emergency repair. If you do not execute it
correctly, or if you apply multiple patches, it can result in possible tube
failure. This could cause you to lose control and fall. Replace a patched

Service
Technological advances have made eBikes and their components more
complex, thus it is impossible for this manual to cover all of the
information required to repair/maintain your eBike. It’s important to have
any repairs or maintenance not covered in this manual done by a
qualied professional in order to reduce the chances of an accident/
possible injury.
Lifespan
Like any machine, an eBike and its components will be subject to wear
and tear over time. Different parts and materials will have varying life-
spans, and when a components lifespan is exceed, it can suddenly fail,
resulting in serious injury or even death for the rider.
Be sure to check your eBike and components thoroughly for signs of
scratches, cracks, fraying or discoloration as any parts with these kinds
of visible distress may be at the end of their lifespan.
Components may be covered for a period of time through the warranty,
however there is no guarantee that a product will last the term of the
warranty. The lifespan of your eBike and its components is related to the
riding you do, and the care that you take.
A crash or heavy impact can put incredible stress on eBike components,
causing them to wear out prematurely. Components that suffer from
extreme stress can fail suddenly, causing loss of control, serious injury,
or death. Be sure to choose the correct bike for your intended purpose.

Inspecttheboltsonaregularbasistoensurethattheyaretightandall
componentsaresecure.
Note: Be sure they are secure, but avoid over tightening the
bolts as this can cause them to strip.
