Your bike has been pre-assembled and requires only a few simple steps to get
it ready for you to ride:
1. Remove the outside carton after cutting the nylon bands by lifting o the entire
box from the tray at the bottom.
2. Remove all the inside cardboard protection and bubble wrap.
3. Please locate and set aside the pedals, battery charger, and tool kit.
4. Carefully remove your bike from the bottom tray and gently rest it in place.
5. Install the front wheel by aligning the brake and fork and tightening the axle
nuts with the 15mm wrench provided with your kit. Make sure that the hooked
washers are on the outside of the fork and are properly secured.
If the disc brake is rubbing after installation, refer to Customer Help on our web-
site at www.pedegoelectricbikes.com/faqs/customerhelp/
6.If necessary, align the stem with the front wheel and tighten the top stem bolt
enough to hold the stem in place. Once the handlebars are aligned and the top
bolt is slightly secured, firmly tighten the 2 side bolts on the stem. After tighten-
ing the 2 side bolts, firmly tighten the top bolt. After all 3 bolts have been securely
fastened, make sure there is no play in the headset.
Be careful to not tighten the top bolt too much as the steering will feel rigid and
sluggish.

7. Make sure the seat stem is clamped tight enough so that you can’t twist it out of
alignment. Pull the seat clamp handle away from the seat post and slide the seat up
or down to adjust the height. Move the clamp handle inward toward seat post so
post is held tight by the clamp.
If necessary, tighten the clamp by twisting the handle clockwise while in the un-
clamped position. Then fold the handle in toward the seat post. This should require
a fair amount of force to insure the seat post is held tight.
Make sure seat is not set with the vertical maximum height marks above the clamp.
8. PLEASE NOTE – the pedals are marked “L”
for Left and “R” for Right. Using the wrench
provided in the tool kit, attach and tighten the
pedals. The left pedal is attached by turning it
counter clockwise and the right pedal is tight-
ened by turning it clockwise.
9. Plug the cord that comes out from underneath the rear rack into
the battery. Turn the key to the “on” position by turning it clockwise.

Safety
Helmet:
Always wear an approved helmet when riding your Pedego and follow the helmet
manufacturer’s instructions for fit, use and care of your helmet. It’s your respon-
sibility to familiarize yourself with the laws of the areas where you ride and to
comply with all applicable laws.
Mechanical Safety Check:
Routinely check the condition of your bicycle before every ride. Make sure no nuts
or bolts are loose. Do a quick visual inspection of the whole Pedego before every
ride. Make sure tires are correctly inflated with 30 psi air pressure and check the
brakes for proper operation.
Your First Ride:
When you buckle on your helmet and go for your first ride, be sure to pick an area
away from cars, other cyclists, obstacles or other hazards in order to become
familiar with the controls, features and performance of your new Pedego. We sug-
gest you start riding with the electric motor turned o until you are comfortable,
then push the red button on the right handle to turn the motor on.

Pg. 6 Pg. 7
Operating System
The red power button located on the right handle toggles on-o.
You can ride the Pedego as a normal bike by just leaving the switch o.
RED POWER BUTTON
To be able to use the electric motor, the battery must be mounted by sliding the fully
charged battery forward onto the rear rack, over the rear wheel, through the channels
on the battery while the carry handle is positioned at the rear. The key switch posi-
tion must be in the “unlock” position to slide the battery on.
UNLOCK OFF ON
The key switch locks the battery in position when the key
is turned clockwise to either OFF or ON.
Plug the power cord into the battery. Turn the key to the “on” position, then press
the red power button on the right handlebar grip so that the battery charge indicator
lights are lit. Be sure to turn o the power when the Pedego is not in use or is recharg-
ing by pressing the red power button again. When the power is o, the indicator lights
will not be lit.

Pg. 8 Pg. 9
Battery and Charger Care
Included with your new Pedego is a lithium ion battery, along with a charger,
which plugs into a standard 110 volt household electric receptacle.
A lithium ion battery requires specially designed chargers. You should never charge
your battery with a substitute charger that is not designed for this use. Use of an
unsuitable charger to charge a lithium ion battery will result in over-heating, fire or
even explosion.
The Pedego battery may be charged while on the bike or removed and charged at a lo-
cation away from the Pedego in a dry location. The battery is easily removed by mov-
ing the key switch to the “unlock” position, unplugging the power cord and grasping
the handle at the rear of the battery and sliding the battery to the rear of the Pedego.
Recharge the Battery

Pg. 8 Pg. 9
To charge the battery, plug the charger into an AC outlet.
The LED indication light should be green showing the
charger is working normally. Then plug the charger into
the charging port located on the side of the battery under-
neath the battery handle. The charger will charge up the
battery in 4—6 hours. The indicator light on the
charger will be red when battery is charging and will turn green when fully charged.
Recharge the battery after every use or when lights next to throttle control shows
a low charge.
Do not open or alter the battery or the battery charger.
Do not place the battery near fire or corrosive substances.
Do not immerse in water or other liquids.
Avoid subjecting the battery to high temperature, such as directly under the hot sun,
for prolonged periods of time.
Recharge the battery before it becomes completely discharged. Completely discharg-
ing will reduce the number of recharging cycles during the battery’s life and limit the
capacity. Never store the battery in a discharged state.
After much use, your battery’s charge-holding capacity will decrease. If you find that
your battery does not hold sucient charge even for short trips, you should contact
your dealer to order a replacement.
If the battery will not be used for an extended period of time, charge it fully and
recharge it every 3 months. Store it in a cool, dry place. Your Pedego battery is
engineered with precision for high capacity and a long, useful life. Do not use it to
power other electrical devices. Improper use of the battery will damage the bat-
tery and shorten its useful life and may cause fire or an explosion. If you experience
unusual sounds or odors coming from the charger or the battery, unplug the charger
immediately and contact Pedego customer service at 1-800-646-8604 or e-mail at
support@pedego.com.

Pg. 10 Pg. 11
Tires
To minimize tire wear and for maximum riding safety, comfort and handling,
maintain front and rear tire air pressure at 30 psi. Use a reliable tire air pressure
gauge to check for proper inflation before every ride. At the same time, inspect
tires for excessive wear and cracks in sidewalls. Replace tires if necessary.
Hand Throttle Control
The throttle control is operated with the right hand. It is located immediately to the
right of the battery charge indicator lights
You control the throttle by twisting it from its resting position.
The farther the throttle switch is from its resting position the
more power is delivered to the motor to accelerate the Pedego.
When you want to slow down, you simply release the throttle
and let it return to its resting position, and simultaneously
apply the brakes if necessary.
In case of an emergency, the brakes will cut o the power even when the throttle is
twisted.
You do not need to pedal the Pedego if you use the hand throttle. However, you can pedal
while commanding power assist. If you do pedal to help the movement, you conserve en-
ergy and the charge in the battery will last longer.
DO NOT DISASSEMBLE, MODIFY
OR REPLACE ELECTRICAL PARTS.

Pg. 10 Pg. 11
Keys
A set of keys are included with your new Pedego Trail Tracker.
The Trail Tracker keys are used to turn the battery on or o as
well as locks the battery into place. Always make sure that the
key position is in the “unlock” setting when removing or insert-
ing the battery. Move the key to the “o” position to secure the
battery before operating the bike.
Always remove the battery from the bike when transporting on a bike rack.
Kickstand
DOWN POSITION
The “side stand” style kickstand has a single leg that flips out to one side and allows
the bike to lean against it.
Please do not sit on your Pedego with the kickstand in the down position.

Pg. 12 Pg. 13
Brakes
Your Pedego is equipped with disc brakes for maximum reliability. Applying pressure
to the brake levers will cause the brake to create friction against the brake rotor, slow-
ing the wheel. The more pressure applied to the brake
lever, the faster the Pedego will come to a stop. The rear
brake should always be applied before, and while, the
front brake is applied. Applying only the front brake to
slow or stop at high speeds may result in the rider being
ejected from the saddle and continuing forward over the handlebars. It is best to apply
even pressure to both brake levers when slowing or stopping.
Bicycles equipped with disc brakes will occasionally make a slight scraping noise when
the wheels are turning without the brakes being applied. This is normal.
Make sure that the brake levers do not contact the handlebar when full pressure is
applied (Figure 2). If so, then the brakes must be adjusted by increasing the tension on
the brake cable.
A quick and small adjustment may be made by unscrewing the threaded
adjuster at the hand lever until the brake is tightened suciently for
safe stopping (Figure 1). If the brakes are still not functioning correctly, they may
require inspection and further adjustment by an experienced bike mechanic.

Pg. 12 Pg. 13
Appearance Care
Periodically clean your Pedego electric bike with a damp
cloth. Avoid spraying the Pedego with a water hose to
avoid electrical issues. Store your Pedego in an area away
from direct sunlight and a wet or damp environment.
It is also recommended to apply chain lube (such as
Tri-Flow or ProLink) to the chain of your Pedego when
you clean it or wipe it down to keep it in good running
condition.
Additional Passengers
Pedego Trail Trackers are designed for one passenger only. DO NOT carry any
additional passengers on the front or rear of the bike. The rear carrier is not
designed to carry the weight of any additional passengers, including baby carriers.
Fuse
There is a fuse located on the end cap of the battery on the opposite side of the key
slot. The fuse is designed to protect the battery. If the fuse blows there will be no
power from the battery to the bike. In the tool kit provided, there is an extra fuse
if a replacement is needed. To replace the fuse, a simple screwdriver is needed to
open and close the fuse cap.

Electric Bikes FAQ
Q. How long does it take to fully charge the battery?
A. Depends on the state of discharge but not more than 4 hours if completely discharged.
Q. What are the running costs for a Pedego electric bike?
A. You will have no worries about rising fuel prices at the pumps. All our electrically powered vehicles use
household electricity. The average cost per full charge is about 10 cents per charge. If you charged the battery
every single day for a year, it would cost you about $35 per year.
Q. Can I ride up hills and against strong headwinds on my Pedego electric bike?
A. Yes. One of the main advantages of cycling on a Pedego electrical bicycle is that it literally flattens hills and
increases your average speed when tackling inclines and headwinds. If you provide a reasonable amount of
eort, but you should be able to tackle anything from a 1 in 10 (10%) gradient up to a 1 in 7 (14%) gradient. You
will be amazed at the relative ease that your new Pedego electric bike can tackle some of the most arduous
journeys.
Q. Do I need a driving license, insurance or registration?
A. No, you don’t. According to Federal law, electric bikes that are under 750 watts are classified as bicycles.
For all intensive purposes, it’s simply a bicycle that requires very little pedaling to travel 20 mph, saving you
time and hassle. The law does require the use of helmet and riders to be at least 16 years old. Check your local
state laws for requirements.
Q. Do I need to pedal an electric bike?
A. No but it helps to prolong battery life. The motor on our bikes is throttle controlled, allowing you to decide
how much power you desire. Have you ever tried to cycle when speeding downhill on your normal bicycle? It’s
just like that. The motor is propelling you faster than you’re cycling so there is pretty much no resistance, it’s
merely a formality!
Q. What happens when I use the brakes under powered assistance?
A. All our bikes are equipped with brake levers that have a built in safety switch that automatically cuts o the
motor power under normal braking conditions. This not only ensures a safe un-powered stopping feature, but
also protects the motor under braking conditions so that it isn’t working against the brakes.
Q. How far will a Pedego take me?
A. This all depends on a few factors. Cycling with pedal assist along a straight road under normal conditions,
the battery should last about 15-30 miles. Cycling up steep hills will obviously take more energy out of the
battery and factors such as road surface, wind resistance, weight of the rider and tire pressure will aect your
range
Q. What happens if I get a flat tire?
A. The tires on our bikes are the same as conventional bicycles. Simply replace the tube with a tube of the
right size and inflate it.
Q. How do I know when the battery is low?
A. The bicycles have easily visible light indicators located on the handle bars that show the amount of juice
left. If it is getting low and you don’t think you will make it to your destination, you can switch o your motor
and keep it just for the dicult bits.
Q. Do I have to wait for the battery to empty before I charge it?
A. No. The batteries we use are Lithium-ion batteries which do not suer from ‘memory eect’. This means
that there is no need to discharge a battery completely before you recharge it again. You can partially recharge
the battery at any time without reducing its voltage or lifespan. We recommend recharging the battery after
every use, regardless of how far you rode.
Q. Can I put a child’s trailer on a Pedego?
A. Yes, you can certainly add a trailer to your Pedego. We suggest using one that hooks onto the frame rather
than the axle.
Q. Can I put a Pedego on a bike rack?
A. Yes, just make sure that the bike rack can hold the weight of a Pedego. We also suggest taking the battery o
to make it easier to lift.
