Harry Potters books together could not
describe every possible combination,
tricks and available components. For this
reason this manual only focuses on your
newly Lekker Bicycle, standard assembly
and drawing your attention to important
notes, warnings and maintenance.

CHAPTER 1
1. Congratulations! You are the proud owner of a brand new
E-Amsterdam. When you receive your bike, the first thing to
do is check that it has arrived in perfect condition, Open the
top of the box, and visually inspect the bike.
2. Remove the bike from the box, be careful, as E-bikes are
generally much heavier than standard bikes, so some help
maybe needed for this step. Once removed, you will find a
small accessory box, the charger box and of course your
bike!
3. For the correct assembly of your bike you will need the
following tools; 8mm/10mm/15mm spanners,
3/4/5/6mm Allen keys, a small amount of lithium grease
and a pump.
4. Remove all the packaging, cut the cable ties holding the
handlebars in place and proceed to step 5.
Getting started
CHAPTER 2
Handlebar fitment and
adjustment
5. Using a 4mm allen key, loosen the 4 bolts located on the front
of the stem, then place the handlebar in the stem and tighten to
5Nm, to centre and adjust the angle of the handlebar, loosen the
allen bolts of the front plate until you can move the handle bar
freely, once you have found your desired bar angle, tighten the
bolts to 5Nm.
PLEASE NOTE: you may have to adjust the screen angle to access
the handle bar bolts, to do this please refer to the screens user
manual.
6. Now it’s time to adjust the angle of the brake levers and gear
shifter to your desired position. Using a 5mm Allen key, loosen
the two bolts on each of the brake levers to allow you to move
them, once in the correct position tighten the bolts to the
manufacturer’s torque recommendation, PLEASE NOTE: you may
have to adjust the gear shifter position to allow you to move the
right hand lever, to do this, loosen the bolt with a 3mm allen key,
then perform the same steps as above, just remember to tighten
the shifter back up!

Assembly of the pedals
7. For the assembly of the pedals you will need a 15mm open
ended spanner, ATTENTION: Please make sure to check the
thread direction before inserting the pedals, as fitting the
pedal to the wrong side can damage the crank arm which is
not covered under warranty!. Apply some grease or anti seize
to the pedal threads and tighten to 40-42Nm torque,
PLEASE NOTE; It is very important to tighten the pedals to
the correct torque, as by not doing so will lead to the pedals
loosening and damaging the crank arm thread, which is not
covered under warranty!

CHAPTER 4
Adjusting gears and final
checks
The E-AMS comes fitted with the excellent Shimano NEXUS 8sp rear
hub, this allows gear changing without the need to pedal for
engagement, whilst we check all gear systems some cable stretch can
occur before, during and after the first few rides, check that your gears
are correctly aligned,To do this follow these easy steps:
8. Turn the gear shifter on the handlebar to position number 4. Now
check viewing window on the rear hub, there will be two yellow lines,
when they are lined up the hub is correctly adjusted. If they are out of
line, you will need to either tension, or loosen the cable, to do this, turn
the barrel adjuster located underneath the shifter clockwise to tighten,
anti clockwise to loosen. Check the two yellow lines are correctly lined
up and test ride the bike.
9.Using either ahand pumportrack pump,removethe valve covers on
both wheels,attach the pump headandinflatethe tyres to the
recommended pressure (usually printed on the sidewall of the
tyre)removepump andfitthe valve caps.
10.Check the brakesare working bypressingthe lever rapidly a few
time to allow pressure to build up in the system,liftthe wheel off the
ground andspin it, It should spin freely without noise, if you hear a
metallic rubbing sound then the brakeswill need adjusting,PLEASE
NOTE:the brakes will need checking before every ride, any anomalies
should be addressed before using the bike further.
11. To adjust the brakes, you will need a 5 mm allen key. Firstly
check the side mounted bolts to make sure they are secured
tightly, once this is done you can then proceed to adjust the
caliper, you will need to loosen the two 5mm allen key bolts
found on the top of the caliper, once done, you will then be able
to adjust the caliper horizontally so the disc rotor moves freely
between the brake pads. PLEASE NOTE; Disc brakes are
subjected to high temperatures and stresses, which can cause
the disc rotor to warp slightly, this is normal and can be
adjusted by bending the disc rotor back to its original position.
ATTENTION: If you do not feel comfortable adjusting the brakes
correctly, we recommend to always take your bicycle to a
trained mechanic for building/adjustment.
12. To adjust the saddle height, loosen the bolt on the seat post
collar using a 5mm allen key and remove the seat post
completely, apply a small amount of grease to the inside of the
frame, insert the seat post to the desired height and tighten the
collar to 5Nm. Check the saddle is correctly positioned and
retighten the 6mm bolt at the top of the seat post (located
under the saddle) to 17Nm.

CHAPTER 4
Adjusting gears and final
checks
13. To attach the front and rear lights and operate them you
will need a 5 mm allen key and a phillips head screwdriver.
Firstly you will need to make sure the lights are mounted
onto the bike. The front light is mounted on the front of the
fork just below the steer tube. To attach the light, you will
need to loosen the 5mm allen key bolt until it comes out.
Once out, insert the bolt through the metal mounting point
under the light and thread the bolt back onto the fork. Make
sure that the cable for the light is away from the front wheel
once mounted to reduce the chance of the cable getting
caught in the front wheel while being ridden.US ONLY:To
attach the rear light simply slide the light’s mounting collar
on to the seat post and tighten with a phillips head
screwdriver.
To operate the lights, make sure the battery is charged and
in the bike. Power up the bike, once the control screen has
turned on hold down the plus (+) button for 2 seconds to
turn on both the front and rear lights. To turn off the lights
hold down the plus (+) button for 2 seconds and the lights
will switch off.
