3. DESCRIPTION OF BICYCLE
3.1 General description
The pedal-assisted bicycle is designed and built to be used outdoors, on roads and private or public environments. In par-
ticular, the components and the type of pedal-assisted bicycle, allow you to face paths with asphalted and dirt surfaces
without particular roughness.
The pedal-assisted bicycle is equipped with a rechargeable battery and an electric motor, whose intervention takes place
only in conjunction with the pedaling and gradually stops as the speed of the vehicle approaches 25 km / h, and then stops
completely at that speed.
For the management of the assistance system there is a special control located next to the left knob, on the handlebar.
On the right side of the handlebar there is a control system for gear selection..
INCORRECT AND UNINTENDED USE
The bicycle has been designed and manufactured for the specified use; a differ-
ent use and non-compliance with the technical parameters set by the manufac-
turer, may constitute a dangerous condition for users.

3.3 Brake levers
The brake levers (Ref.C - Figure 3) are placed on the handlebars of the pedal-assisted bicycle, near the knobs (Ref. D-
Figure 3). These systems make it possible to control the calipers of the brake discs, located near the wheel hubs. The
right lever controls the rear brake, the left one the front brake; the braking action is proportional to the force applied on
the lever.
3.4 Speed change
The pedal-assisted bicycle has a 10-speed gearbox with the sprockets positioned on the hub of the rear wheel, selecta-
ble by means of the opposing levers, located at the base of the right knob. The indicator (Ref. E - Figure 3) at the top of
the handlebar allows you to view the selected ratio.

trated below. (Figure 4)
Near the left knob of the handlebar are 3 buttons, which
can be used with a short or long press, thanks to these you
can control the functionality of the display. (Figure 5)
