The long gears (4,5,6,7) are for a quick ride and on the even routes.
8. SAFETY
Important norms
•Respect the traffic lights
•Respect the traffic signs
•It is recommended to use helmet for one safety
•Keep on the one’s right side and pay special attention when motorized vehicles
are present.
Safety elements (Protection, visibility, circulation)
Use a bicycle homologated helmet, right clothing with reflecting parts and not too much
loose which could get hooked up to any part of the vehicle. Gloves and sport shoes
also increase comfort and safety
Local drive rules
Be aware of all the local drive bicycle rules.
Most countries have specific laws pertaining to bicycles and cycling. Contact local
cycling clubs or the relevant Department of Transportation (or equivalent) for specific
information regarding these laws. ( Check the Town House web site)
Attention while riding
One must be aware of any incident which may happen while riding such as, how avoid
the potholes, the grids of the drains or edges which could help the wheels to skid. To
avoid any obstacle, it should be in a transversal way with an angle of 90º, and if one it
is not sure , get off of the vehicle.
Riding with poor luminosity
Be prudent on riding with poor light. The E-48 is provided with a light and reflector set.
Keep them on. Use the front and rear light at any time required. It is convenient to bring
striking and reflecting clothing, specially during the night .
Take care with wet conditions
The rain reduce the visibility and the grip as well. Ride with the low gears on the turns,
on the zebra pass or sleepy areas in rain and wet conditions. Avoid riding on rainy days,
days with heavy snowfall or through flooded areas..
Take care overtaking cars
If a car comes on your way without indicating it or if someone opens the parked car door
while you are overtaking the car, a serious problem could happen. Use the bell to make
you noticed at any time required..

15
Be cautious before a long route
Remember to bring a kit for repairing a flat tyre, such as a tube, the required tools and
a pump.
It is advisable to bring a tool for everything and a first-aid kit, in case of a long route.
Use the brakes with precaution
Keep a moderate distance with the other vehicles and other objects. Calculate the brake
capacity with the distance.
To stop the vehicle grip both levers at the same time.
The excessive use of the front wheel can provoke a skid on the front wheel, even the
rear wheel may lost contact with the ground, making lost the control of the user and
consequently a fall.
Note
:
As with any other activity, the use of this vehicle implies certain
risks. To get the E-48, such risk must be assumed by the user. In no
case the dealer or manufacturer are to be liable.
Avoid making unsafe actions while using the E-48
Many cyclist accidents could have been avoided if the common sense had been
applied.
- The hands always on the handlebar: any small imperfection of the road can provoke a
vibration or a sudden turn on the front wheel.
- Not to ride with object hanging from the handlebar or from any part of the frame, they
could touch the spokes or provoke a sudden handlebar turn, causing the vehicle lost
control.
- Do not ride under the alcohol effects or under any medicament which can reduce the
capacity of riding. The E-48 requires a good coordination of movements and the user
shall be always with precaution of anything happening round him.
- Never carry any additional passenger. The E-48 is designed to be ridden by one sole
person. Resides, it is advisable not to increase the limit weight,.
- Never ride with earphones as they reduce the ability to hear other vehicles.
- Never hold oneself on another vehicle while riding.

ATENT
I
O
N
:
As any mechanical device, the E
-
48 is to wear down with
different efforts. The different materials and components used may react
differently to this daily decline.
If the lasting life of a given component
has been exceeded, it may suddenly break, injuring the user. The cracks,
scratches or discoloration in the areas subject to intense use indicate
that the component has exceeded its useful life and must therefore be
replaced.
Caution
:
I
n case of changing the cranks or tires, the distance between
t
he
wheel and the toes ( feet ) on turning may be reduced, thus putting at risk
the cyclist’s safety.

16
Attention
:
In case of changing the cranks, pedals, tires, fork etc.,
the
angle inclination can be reduced, thus putting at risk the cyclist’s safety
9. MECHANICS AND MAINTENANCE
Many of the specific adjustments and general maintenance detailed in this manual can
be done with Standard tools, which one may have at home. Nevertheless, we
recommend to be carried out by a Monty official dealer who, in addition to the necessary
expertise, will also have the tools needed for each item.
9.1 SEAT AND SEAT POST
The height and position of the seat must be according to the right position of the user. A
wrong position can provoke physical problems to the user. The seat must well be fitted
to the seat post and the seat post to the frame well aligned.
9.1.1 SEAT POSITION ADJUSTMENT
•The seat can be fitted in three parameters.
1. Seat height
2. Seat Inclination
3. Seat rear position
1. The seat’s height is the most important to be comfortable and be able to pedal
safely and efficiently. This adjustment is based on the length of the cyclists leg.
There are numerous specialized methods to choose the height depending on the length
from the groin area to the base of the foot. It is recommend a simple way as follow:
With the seat in a horizontal
position, sit on the bike, ideally, it
could be someone else holding the
bike steady or use a nearby wall for
support.
Figure 5
With one of your heels, press down
on either pedal, stretching the leg
as much as possible. This is the
correct height. (Figure 5)
When riding, the leg should not be
stretched out to the maximum when
the pedal is in the lowest position.

17
The seat adjustment is very personal
.
To regulate the height, the seat post
quick release must be open, later, the
right height must be selected and
close the quick release properly. The
seat post height must be proportional
to the rider’s height
See section: “ How to adjust the quick
release"
Never extend the seat post
beyond the indicated line on the
tube, as shown in point 1. See
(Figure 6).
Figura 6
2. Seat inclination. This adjustment is the most delicate and personal towards the user.
Generally, it is horizontal or with the tip slanted slightly downwards. Try different
positions until finding the most comfortable.
This adjustment is made by loosing the screw (1) (allen 6 mm) underneath the seat,
set the required inclination thigh the screw. The recommended torque value is (20-25
Newton). See (Figure 7).
3. Seat rear position: This seat adjustment implies moving the seat forwards or
backwards with respect to the seat post. Generally, the seat is centred to the stem
Placing the seat further back generally implies having to bend forward more to reach the
handlebar and excessive strain on the quadriceps muscle group.
To adjust this position, open the same bolt (1) (allen 6 mm) used to get the right
inclination (Figure7).
It is reco
mm
e
nded to set at
the same time: The
inclination and the rear
position.
Figure

18
9.1.2 HOW TO ADJUST THE QUICK RELEASE
Quick releases clamp systems do not need tools, they are frequently used for seat
stems, axles and folding systems.
The quick releases consists of two principal parts which must be adjusted
a) The blocking lever which applies the force and.
b) The nut to adjust the lever’s strength.
For the proper and safe clamp adjustment, follow the following steps:
1. Turn the lever to the open position ( “open” is engraved on the lever ). See Figure 8
Figure 8 Figure 9
2. Choose the desired height while respecting the maximum indicated (Figure 6).
3. Turn the lever to close ( “Close is engraved on the lever”). (Figure 8)
4. If the lever is easily set to the “Close” position (less than 50 N (Newton ), this means
that it is not tight enough, in this case, open again the lever to the “OPEN” (Figure 9)
and tight the quick release again clockwise until noticing is well tight
5. Turn the lever to the “close” position. Once fastened in the right position (“Close” is
engraved on the lever) Figure 8
6. If the force required to turn the lever were excessive (more than 200 N (Newton)
repeat the previous step, turning the bold counter-clockwise. Do this as many times as
necessary until safe
The quick release must be positioned in a way that it does not interfere
with other components and easy to be handled
In case of doubts or if you can not set the adjustment, take E-48 to an authorized dealer or
contact us
9.2 HANDLEBAR AND STEM
The handlebar and stem must be fitted correctly at the suitable position of the user and
well tightened. .

19
Check once a month to ensure that the stem is aligned with the front wheel. Also check
the joint between the stem and handlebar, trying to move the latter with respect to the
front wheel. Check as well no cables to be stretched or pinched when moving the
handlebar. Verify all the screws and bolts to be tight.
There are two kinds of stems
•CONVENTIONAL STEM is the one to be inserted into the fork tube and the height
can be regulated. The headset is provided with threads.
•A-HEAD stem is the one to be fitted, externally, to the fork tube and not possibility
to regulate the height. The headset is provided without threads
9.2.1 CONVENTIONAL STEM
Adjustment of the handlebar height:
A. Remove the rubber cap and loose the screw. Figure 1 in (Figure 10) counter-
clockwise (Allen 6mm).
B. Move the handlebar sideways to unblock it and adjust to the designed height
Caution
:
Never raise the stem above the line on the stem as indicated in
point (1). See (Figure 11).
Figure 10 Figure 11
C. Tighten the screw (1) clockwise until completely set. The recommended torque
value for the stem: 20-30Nm. ( Newton )
Adjustment of the alignment:
A. To set the handlebar perpendicular to the front wheel, use the same system like
the height adjustment one.
Move the handlebar sideways to unblock the handlebar and fit it to the required
height
Adjustment of the handlebar inclination:
A. Loosen the screws (3) counter-clockwise as seen in (Figure 12). (Allen 6 mm.)

20

C. Tighten the screws (3) clockwise . The recommended torque value is: 15Nm. (
Newton )
Figure 12
Adjustment of the stem inclination:
A. Loosen the stem screw (2) counter-clockwise, indicated in the (Figure 12).
(allen 6 mm.)
B. Chose the inclination required. Take note of the indicated position since the
handlebar inclination can be effected.
C. Tighten the screw (2) clockwise.It is recommended torque value :17-20Nm. (
Newton )
Check the handlebar and stem for wear or stress signs. If you find any scratches, dents,
warping, discoloration or cracks, remove the affected piece immediately.
If you doubt whether or not the handlebar is safe to use, do not use the E-48. Take it to an
authorized dealer
9.2.2 A-HEAD STEM
Adjustment of the handlebar height:
This kind of stem can not be regulated.
Adjustment of the handlebar inclination:
A. Loose the screws alternately counter clockwise (A) the ones which fix the
handlebar to the stem (Figure 13). (Allen 6 mm.)
