ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
Congratulaons on receiving your Urban Ryder™ Electric Bicycle! If for any reason you do not have the proper tools or
are not confident in safely assembling the bike yourself, we recommend that you take the bike to a local bike shop for
assistance or have them assemble it. We suggest taking all bikes in for a safety check and tune up before riding. Always
wear a helmet when riding.
Open the box from the top by cung the 3 bands and the packaging tape. Carefully remove the 3 Styrofoam packing blocks.
Remove the front wheel before removing the bicycle. Remove the bicycle by liing it straight out of the box (this may
require 2 people). Be careful not to scratch yourself or the bike on the carton staples. Stand the bike on a clean flat surface
and remove the Styrofoam packing material strap ed to the frame and various parts. Be careful not to scratch the bike or
cut yourself when snipping the strap es. Be sure to keep any small packages of parts and paperwork that come with the
bike. Check all contents to ensure you have each part required for assembly.

USER MANUAL - URBAN RYDER™ ASSEMBLY: HANDLEBARS
Assembly: Handlebars
Install the handlebars by loosening the stem wedge bolt and turning the handlebar stem to face the front of the bike.
Remove the stem faceplate and 2 bolts. Turn the handlebar to ensure that the wiring is not twisted and flows upward
toward the handlebars without kinking (Fig. 1.1). Place the handlebars in the half round stem cut-out (Fig. 1.2) making sure
that the grooves (splines) are aligned correctly, in the centre of the cut-out (Fig. 1.3). Replace the faceplate and ghten the
bolts evenly so that the faceplate sits flat over the handlebar (Fig. 1.4). Lastly, align the handlebars 90° to the front wheel
and ghten the handlebar stem bolt. Also see adjusng handlebars below.

Quick Release Lever on the Front Wheel
Urban Ryder™ uses a Quick Release Lever to lock the front wheel into the
fork dropouts (Fig. 1.8). Quick Release Levers are safe and convenient
when adjusted properly. Before riding your bicycle you must understand
how they work and how to use them properly to prevent serious injury
or death from a fall.
Quick Release Levers use a cam acon to clamp the front wheel in place.
Due to their adjustable nature, it is crical that you understand how they
work, their proper use, and how much force is needed to secure them
correctly.

If you receive your bike with the handlebars stem out of the steering tube, then remove the protecve cover on the stem
wedge. Apply a bit of grease or oil to the stem wedge to help it insert into the rubber stem seal on the steering tube. Wiggle
and turn the stem at the same me as you slide it down the steering tube. Insert wedge past or up to “MAX HT” mark
on stem. Align the handle bars perpendicular to the front wheel and ghten the Allen head wedge expander bolt. Adjust
the angle of the handlebar with the Allen bolt, located under the handlebar base (Fig. 1.7). Idenfy the black wire loom
clamp on the handlebar stem and remove the screw. Move the wire loom to the side of the clamp and insert the screw and
ghten to secure the loom to the stem clamp.

ASSEMBLY: FRONT WHEEL & PEDALS
CAUTION: The full force of the cam acon is needed to clamp the wheel securely. Holding the nut with one
hand and turning the lever like a wing nut, is NOT a safe or effecve way to close a quick release
and will not clamp the wheel safely to the forks.
WARNING: Operang the bike with an improperly adjusted wheel or Quick Release Lever, can allow the
wheel to wobble or fall offthe bicycle. This can cause serious injury or death.
Assembly: Front Wheel & Pedals
2. Installing the Front Wheel
Install the front wheel by first inserng the Quick Release rod into the wheel axel. There are 2 small springs on the Quick
Release rod that have different diameters on each end. Install the springs so that the ends with the larger diameter are next
to the Quick Release and the round nut (Fig. 2.1). Make sure the round black nut is on the disc side of the wheel and the
lock lever is on the opposite side (Fig. 2.3).
Tighten the round nut onto the rod so the rod threads are almost flush with the outside of the nut. Be careful not to cross
the threads and ghten by hand only.
Place the Quick Release Lever in the open posion. Have someone hold and lithe bike by the handlebars to posion the
front wheel into the forks. Make sure that you line up the brake disc with the brake calliper when inserng the front wheel
axel into the fork drop outs (Fig. 2.4). Check to ensure that the axel has engaged all the way into the fork dropouts before
clamping.

It is essenal that you know how to install and remove your wheels safely. If you are unsure ask your local bike shop to
install or assemble your bike and wheels. Understand and apply the correct technique for clamping your wheel in place
with a Quick Release Lever. Before each ride of your bike, check that the wheel is securely clamped properly and the Quick
Release Lever is in the correct posion and locked.

USER MANUAL - URBAN RYDER™ ASSEMBLY: FRONT WHEEL & PEDALS
To ghten the Quick Release and axel into the fork dropout, ensure the Quick
Release is in the open posion with the lever parallel to the ground (the lever
should be at a 90° angle to the forks). With the lever in this posion, ghten
the round nut finger ght. You will not be able to close the lever to the locked
posion yet.
Next, loosen the nut approximately 3 quarter turns, counter clockwise and li
the lever upward to lock the wheel in place. The lever should be almost parallel
to the front fork when locked. If the tension is correct, the lever should close
ghtly. When closing the lever it should leave a clear imprint in the palm of your
hand (Fig. 2.6, the imprint may not be as deep as the hand model’s picture).
When the lever is locked in this posion, parallel to the fork, it will not easily
be opened if it catches on any objects while riding your bike. To increase or
decrease the tension, open the lever and adjust the nut clockwise or counter
clockwise, 1/8 turn at a me. Repeat unl the tension is sufficient. Less than
1/2 a turn on the adjusng nut can make the difference between safe clamping
force and unsafe clamping force. Install the front fender, with the supplied bolts,
in the front forks and at the headlight (Fig 2.7).
3. Pedal Installaon
Note: “L” and “R” (“L” = le& “R” = right) is stamped on the threaded ends of
the pedals (Fig. 3.1). The pedals have opposite thread direcons and must go on
a specific side of the bike. Leand right side of the bike is determined by sing
on the seat.

Fig. 3.1 Left & Right Pedals
The LePedal has a reverse, non-standard thread and must be turned counter
clockwise to be screwed in.
The Right Pedal has a standard thread and must be turned clockwise to be threaded in.
Apply some grease to the pedal threads before aaching. Install the Right Pedal to the chain sprocket side of the bike (Fig.
3.2) and the LePedal to the opposite side (same side as the baery key).
Start the pedal threads into the crank arm threads, by hand, at least 4 complete 360° turns to ensure the pedals are not
cross-threaded. Incorrect installaon of the pedals or stripped threads are not covered under warranty. Complete by
securely ghtening with a 15 mm wrench.
WARNING: Poorly ghtened pedals can result in damaging the bicycle, personal injury or death.!!

With the Quick Release Lever in the open posion (the lever should be at a 90° angle to the seat tube), insert the seat post
into the seat tube. Tighten the Quick Release clamp by turning the tension adjusng nut clockwise, with one hand on the
cam lever to keep it from rotang. Lithe Quick Release Lever up to the locked posion.
Grab the seat by the saddle with both hands to aempt to rotate the seat. If you are unable to force the seat out of
alignment with the frame, the clamp is ght enough. If the seat moves out of alignment with the frame, increase the
tension on the adjusng nut approximately a 1/4 turn and try again. The seat height can be adjusted from 34 to 38.5 inches
(863 mm - 977 mm) from the ground or 30.5 to 34.5 inches (774 mm - 876 mm) from the pedals.

CAUTION: Less than 1/2 a turn on the adjusng nut can make the difference between safe clamping force
and unsafe clamping force.
CAUTION: A poorly adjusted seat can result in damaging the bicycle, personal injury or death.

CAUTION: The res have NOT been filled with air to the correct capacity for shipping purposes. !!
5. Tire Pressure
Using a hand pump, fill the res with air to the
rang on the sidewall (Fig. 5.1). We recommend a
hand pump to avoid over inflang the res, which
can easily happen when using a high pressure air
line at a gas staon or automove re store.
The res are rated for a maximum of pressure of
“450 kPa” or “65 PSI”.

USER MANUAL - URBAN RYDER™

URBAN RYDER™ OPERATION: BATTERY
As lithium baeries do not suffer from Memory Effect, it is not required for the baery to be empty to begin a charge. Top
up charging every me you have completed your ride is recommended. A new baery might take 2 or 3 charges before it
performs at its full capacity. All baeries have a finite life cycle and eventually lose storage capacity below a useful level.
Kept in good condion, a lithium baery will perform at least 300 to 900 full charge cycles with a retenon of 70% from
its original capacity. Small top up charges count fraconally towards a single full cycle charge. The baery may be charged
on or offthe bike. Always charge the baery with the key in the “OFF” posion. Never charge a hot baery or immediately
aer a long ride; let the baery cool for approximately 1 hour prior to charging.
Do not leave the charger plugged into the baery for long periods of me, as this can damage the baery. Always charge
the bike in a dry, clean place. Keep the charger dry and clean. Avoid storing your baeries in extreme temperatures, hot or
cold, and keep in a cool dry place. Always plug the baery charger into a grounded ELECTRICAL circuit.
The baery can be used in any weather between 1°C to 38°C. Extreme heat or extreme cold can shorten the baery range.
Try to avoid fully discharging the baery. It may be possible aer the baery is discharged to turn offthe bike, wait a few
seconds, and turn it back on to get a small amount of power. This “pulsing” (turning offand on) will permanently damage
the baery. Lithium baeries prefer frequent paral discharge charge cycles rather than fewer, full, deep cycle charges.
To prevent premature failure of your baery and for your warranty to remain in effect, you must charge and discharge the
baery at least once per month.
7. Charging the Baery
The supplied baery is a Lithium, 48 Volts and 13 Amp hours. Check to ensure that the charger voltage is correct for your
ba
ery. The charger should read “Output 55VDC 2A”. This is an output for a power source of approximately 120 Volts. If the
charger output reads greater than or less than 55, it means that the output of the power source is greater or less than 120V
respecvely. Only use a wall receptacle with a grounded circuit to plug your charger into.
WARNING: Never charge the baery outside in wet weather, as there is a chance of electrical shock,
electrocuon, and death.
