GRACE EASY Manual
1. Your GRACE EASY
The GRACE EASY is a member of the class of electric power-assisted motorcycles, also known
as EPAC's. The motor only provides assistance when you apply force to the pedals.
The force applied by the rider is measured in terms of speed, pedalling frequency, and
torque through which the motorised assistance is adjusted. The maximum assisted speed is
25 km/h (15.5 mph) or 32 km/h (20 mph) in the USA as a Pedelec, or 41 km/h (25.5 mph) as
an S-Pedelec. The electric motor switches off once this speed is reached. However, you are
also free to travel faster than the maximum assisted speed with your own pedal power and
without support from the electric motor.
