available per charge. If planning a long trip, applying a combination of the 3 distance enhancing methods mentioned

above willallowforan uninterruptedpower supplyforthe entire ride.

c) General warning

Like any sport, bicycling involves the risk of injury and damage. By choosing to ride a bicycle, you assume the

responsibility for that risk, so you need to know —and to practice —the rules of safe and responsible riding and of

proper use and maintenance. Proper use andmaintenance of your bicycle reduces risk of injury.

This Manual contains many ―Warnings‖ and ―Cautions‖ concerning the consequences of failure to maintain or inspect

your bicycle and of failure to followsafe cycling practices.

WARNING: This image followed by the word WARNING indicates a potentially hazardous situation that,

if not avoided, could result in serious injury or death.

CAUTION: This image followed by the word CAUTION indicates a potentially hazardous situation, which,

if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury, serious, damage to the bicycle or the voiding of your

warranty or is an alert against unsafe practices.

Many of the Warnings and Cautions say, ―you may lose control and fall‖. Because any fall can result in serious injury or

even death, we do not always repeat the warning of possible injury or death. Because it is impossible to anticipate every

situation or condition that can occur while riding, this Manual makes no representation about the safe use of the bicycle

under all conditions. There are risks associated with the use of any bicycle which cannot be predicted or avoided, and

which are the soleresponsibility of the rider.

d) A special note to parents

The Prodeco Technologies Outlaw is intended for use by adult riders only and not children. Manystate lawsrequire electric

bicycle riders to be a minimum age of 16 with some states having minimum ages set at 18 years old (at the time of the

writing of this manual). As a parent or guardian, you are responsible for the activities and safety of your minor child including

the following of your state and local laws in regards to the riding of an electric bicycle by a minor (under the age of 18). That

includes, if your state allows a minor to ride, making sure that your minor child can safely ride and control all of the

operations of the bicycle, and fully understands all warnings and cautions as indicated in this User Guide. Please read on if

you have determined that your minor child can legally and safely ride and control all of the operations of the bicycle. That

includes making sure that the bicycle is properlyfitted to the child; that it is in good repair and safe operating condition; that

you and your child have learned and understand the safe operation of the bicycle; and that you and your child have

learned, understand and obey not only the applicable local motor vehicle, bicycle and traffic laws, but also the common

sense rules of safe and responsible bicycling. As a parent or guardian, you should read and understand this manual.

Before letting any child ride the Outlaw or any of Prodeco Technologies electric bicycles, review with them all warnings and

cautions; as well as the information on the proper usage of your battery pack, charger and bicycle. You must first confirm

the laws, rules andregulations regarding electric bicycles in your state, cityand localmunicipality.

WARNING: ridersoftheOutlawmustalwayswearsanapprovedbicyclehelmetandsafetygearwhenriding.

Chapter 2: Getting Started

CAUTION: If you have purchased your bicycle by mail order or through a sales channel whereas your new

Outlaw is still in the box, it is recommended you read Chapter 3 “Basic Instructions” section g “Before your first

ride” prior to your first ride. There may be additional adjustments required due to shipping by the freight carrier.

a) Unpacking your box

Your Outlaw arrives fully assembled in it’s box and only requires the installation of the handlebar. You can learn on how

to install the handlebar in Chapter 3 ―Basic Instructions’ section c ―Installing the stem and handlebar‖.

The Outlaw has been fullytested and adjusted prior to being packed in the Heavy Duty double wall box with a form fitting

interior support system. To remove the Outlaw from it’s box, open the top flap of the box and remove the top protection

insert. Place one hand under the front portion of the frame and the other hand under the center of the frame. Pull up

slowly and the bicycle will lift out of the box. Remove the additional inserts (if attached to bicycle) and set the bicycle

down by balancing the bicycle on the opened kick stand and both wheels. The kick stand also performs as a crankset

protector.

b) Contents of the box

Check the contents of your box. Your new Outlaw should include the following items in the box or your dealer should

have included these items with your purchase:

Outlaw electric bicycle

d) Registering your new bike

For the warranty to take effect, you must register your new bicycle. Registration of your electric bicycle is the onlyway we

can acknowledge and verify the established owner. Your bicycle has 3 individual and unique serial numbers (frame,

motor and battery). Each serial number must be registered when filling out the registration form. The serial number on

the frame is located under or on top of the crank/bottom bracket portion of the frame. The serial number for the motor is

found on the motor’s side. The serial number for the battery is located on the barcode label adhered to the underside of

the battery. These numbers should be recorded and registered in case of warranty issues or theft. Please review

Chapter 10 ―Warranty Service and Repair‖ section c ―Registering your bicycle‖ on how to register your Outlaw. You can

registration card found in Chapter 10 ―Warranty Service and Repair‖ section d ―Registration card‖.

e) Familiarize yourself with your bicycle’s parts

Chapter 3: Basic Instructions

a) Bicycle Fit

It is very important your Outlaw is properly adjusted for comfort and to avoid the possibility of losing control while riding. The

saddle will adjust to allow riders from 5’ 8‖ to 6’ 6‖ to set the proper measurement allowing for a safe and comfortable riding

position. If you plan to use your electric bicycle also as a traditional pedal bicycle, it is recommended you adjust the saddle

height to allow for a full leg extension when pedaling. The ball of your foot when resting on the pedal should only allow for a

slight bend at the knee when seated. Please review the following points in determining how to make the correct adjustments.

Thesubsequent sections will assist you with makingtheseadjustments.

1) Is your bike adjusted to yoursize?

2) To check, see Chapter 5 ―Perfect Fit and Ride‖. If your bicycle is not properly adjusted for you, you may lose

control and fall.

3) Is the saddle at the right height? To check,see Chapter 5 ―Perfect Fit and Ride‖ section a ―Stand over height‖.

4) Are saddle and seat post securely clamped? A correctly tightened saddle will allow no saddle movement in

any direction. See Chapter 3 ―Basic Instructions‖ section b ―Adjusting the saddle‖ for details.

5) Can you comfortably operate the brakes? If not, you have the ability to adjust their angle and reach. See

Chapter 5 ―Perfect Fit and Ride‖ section e ―Brake lever height adjustments‖ for details.

6) Do you fully understand how to operate your new bicycle? If not, before your first ride, have your dealer or

b) Adjusting the saddle

You have the ability to adjust the height of your saddle instantly via the quick

release clamp. There is also the ability to tilt the nose of the saddle up or down

and adjust your riding position to be further or closer to the handlebar. The latter

two require the use of the multi-use tool included with the purchase of your

Outlaw. Please review the following details on adjusting your saddle.

To adjust the height of the saddle or remove the seat post, no tools are required.

The quick release lever is opened by pulling the lever away from the seat tube

allowing for the seat tube clamp to loosen the grip around the post. This will allow

you to raise or lower the saddle to the desired height. There is a minimum

insertion line on the seat post which must be followed and you must not extend

the seat post past this mark. It is also important the seat tube clamp is tightened

sufficiently around the seat post for it not to slide downwards after the quick

release lever is closed. This can be accomplished by tightening the quick release

nut clock wise which is located on the opposite end of the quick releaselever.

WARNING: The seat post includes a minimum insertion mark. It is important you do not allow the seat

post to be clamped below this mark. This mark must be inserted into the frame pass the top of quick release

clamp. If clamping below this mark, it can cause the seat post to break, failure to follow this warning could

result in serious injury or death.

CAUTION: The seat tube quick release clamp must be checked for tightness to ensure the saddle will not

accidentally slide into the seat tube when riding. This can cause a rider to lose balance and may result in a fall.

To tilt the nose of your saddle upwards or downwards, you will need to use the 5mm hex key included with your multi-

use tool kit that came with your bicycle. The saddle mounting clamp attaches the saddle to the seat post via a front and

rear barrel nut and bolt. To bring the nose of the saddle down, loosen the rear bolt by 1 full counter clockwise rotation

and tighten the front bolt by 1 full clockwise rotation. Check for comfort and if the nose is still too high, attempt the above

step again. Continue to adjust by repeating the step above until the desired nose height is established. If you prefer to

raise the nose, you can follow the above step but in the opposite direction (loosen the front bolt counter clockwise 1

rotation and tighten the rear bolt clockwise 1 rotation). All bolts should be tightened to 140 in*lb. (SEE PHOTOS)

CAUTION: The saddle mounting clamp front and rear barrel nut and bolt must remain tight at all times.

Test saddle for looseness or play in the rotation of the nose. If saddle is loose, tighten the bracket bolts to

ensure the saddle will not accidentally rotate up or down when riding. Both bolts should be tightened to 140

in*lb. If loose, this can cause a rider to lose balance and may result in a fall.

Your saddle can be adjusted to be closer or further away from the steering tube/handlebar (you will need to use the 5mm

hex key included with your multi-use tool kit). This adjustment is minimal but allows a 7.5mm adjustment in either

direction from center mount (15mm total, close to 5/8‖). To adjust the saddle closer or further, you must loosen the rear

and front barrel nut and bolt set which connects the saddle rails to the saddle mounting clamp located at the top of the

seat post. Loosen both bolts by rotating 2 times counter clockwise each. This should allow for sufficient looseness to

slide the saddle rails in either direction on the saddle mounting clamp. You must not allow the edge of the saddle

mounting clamp to meet with the saddle rail bends. The edge of the clamp must be a minimum of 5mm from the saddle

rail bends. Upon establishing the correct position, tighten the saddle mounting clamp bolts 2 times in clockwise direction.

Check for tightness of bolts and continue turning if loose. All bolts should be tightened to 140 in*lb. (SEE PHOTOS)

CAUTION: The edge of the saddle mounting clamp must have a minimum of 5mm of clearance from the

saddle rail bends. If the edge of the clamp is mounted to close the saddle rail bends and the rider does not

position themselves properly on the saddle, this could result in the rails becoming unstable due to the leverage

of the riders weight. The rails can bend and can cause a rider to lose balance and may result in a fall.

c) Installing the handlebar and stem (SEEPHOTOS)

The handlebar of the Outlaw is not secured to the stem when shipped. The handlebar is temporarily attached to the frame with

shipping ties. Using scissors, cut the ties to free the handlebar from the frame. You will need to place the center of the handlebar

into the stem’s concaved center and attachthehandlebarclamp plate to the stem.Thereare4stem binder bolts which tightenthe

plate to the stem, securing the handlebar in place. You will also want to rotate the handlebar to a comfortable riding position prior

to your final tightening / torqueing of the stem binder bolts. The stem binder bolts require torqueing of a minimum 60 lb*in. The

brakelevers,throttleandshifterpositions canbeadjustedafterwards forpropercontrol.

WARNING: The handlebar should be properly rotated for comfort and control. Loosen the 4 stem binder bolts

and rotatethehandlebardownwards orupwardstoapreferred riding position.Tightenstembinder boltsto 60-90lbs*in.

d) Your local electric bicycle and bicycle laws

Your new Outlaw follows the federal guidelines with a limited speed of 20mph and 750W motor. The Outlaw under the Federal

guidelines within mostUSA states can be allowed on bicycle pathways. However, electric bicycle laws change often and you are

responsible to confirm legal status of the riding of your electric bicycle in bicycle pathways. Below is a reference section on the

USAelectricbicyclefederalguidelines:

Electric Bicycle Laws (please contact your local transportation department for the specific laws in your state and city regarding

ridingelectric bicycles onbike pathways)

Prodeco Technologies offers the following information as guidance and does not guarantee or assure riders they are

followingtherulesandregulationsoftheirstate.

Electric bicycle laws may vary by state to state with most states following the classification of that by the CPSC

(Consumer Product Safety Commission), DOT & NHSTA. Further, the US NHSTA (National Highway Traffic Safety

Administration) defines low-speed electric bicycles (under 20mph) also as consumer products and not Motor Vehicles for

safety standards. The NHSTA adheres for the most part to the CPSC guidelines. We included reference below on how

electric bicycles are perceived by the Federal Government’s most important agencies. We do believe new regulation and

rules will apply in the future upon the electric bicycle becoming one of the standard forms of transportation for the

masses. Prodeco Technologies will continue to follow new rules and guidance set forth by these agencies, always

welcoming and adhering to the guidelinestheyfeel are required to assure safetyfor the electric bicycle rider.

On October 22, 2008, the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) updated the Bicycle and Pedestrian Provisions of

FederalTransportation Legislationto maketechnicalcorrectionsand clarifications.

Local BicycleLaws

Most states have their own set of bicycle laws regarding traditional pedal powered bicycles. With most states recognizing electric

bicycles as traditional pedal powered bicycles you must know the applicable laws for your area. Your Department of

Transportation or Cycle Clubs in your area will have the details involving riding a bicycle in your area and your city’s bike

pathways. Requirements for riding change depending upon your location. Most cities require LED lights, hand signals, riding on

the correct side of the road, riding behind and not parallel to other cyclist, etc…

e) Safety first

It is important you follow your local bicycle laws but also it is important you ride safely. Below are examples of

understanding how to ride your new Outlaw safely.

Always wear an approved helmet when riding your bike and follow the helmet manufacturer’s instructions

for fit, use and care of your helmet.

Do you have all the other required and recommended safety equipment for your area? It’s your responsibility

tofamiliarize yourself with the laws of the areas where you ride, and to comply with all applicable laws.

Do you know how to correctly check your wheel axle? Do you understand proper braking techniques? Is your

saddle properlyadjusted? How do you power your newelectric bicycle? These are all questions you should have

the answers to prior to riding for the first time. This USER GUIDE will answer most of the questions you have in

regards to your new bicycle and assist you in ensuring your electric bicycle remainssafe to ride. You should first

readthe USER GUIDE in its entirety and familiarize yourself with your new bicycle prior to riding.



For further safety guidelines, please read Chapter 4: Safety



f) Mechanical safety check

Check the condition of your bicycle before everyride.

Nuts, bolts and straps: Make sure nothing is loose. Lift the front wheel off the ground by two or three

inches then let it bounce on the ground. Anything sound, feel or look loose? Do a quick visual and tactile

inspection of the whole bike. Are there any loose parts or accessories? If so, secure them. If you’re not

sure, ask someone with bike experience to check.

Tires and Wheels: Make sure tires are correctly inflated, see Chapter 6. Check by placing one hand on the

saddle and the other on the intersection of the handlebars and stem, then bounce your weight on the bike

while looking at tire deflection. Compare what you see with how it looks when you know the tires are

correctly inflated; and adjust if necessary. Are the tires in good shape? Spin each wheel slowly and look for

cuts in the tread and sidewall. Replace damaged tires before riding the bike. Spin each wheel and check for

brake clearance and side-to-side wobble. If a wheel wobbles side to side even slightly, or rubs against or

hits the brake pads, take the bike to a qualified bike shop to have the wheel trued.

Brakes: Check the brakes forproper operation. Squeeze the brake levers. Are the brakes properly releasing?

All control cables seated and securely engaged? Do the disc brake pads grasp the rotors within an inch of

brake lever movement? Can you apply full braking force at the levers without having them touch the

handlebar?If not, your brakes need adjustment. Do not ride thebike until the brakes are properlyadjusted.

Quick Releases: Make sure seat post, rear axle & frame quick release levers are properly adjusted and all

are in the locked position.

Handlebar and saddle alignment: Makesure the saddle and handlebar stem are parallel to the bike’s center line,

clamped and bolts tightened enough so that you can’t twist them out of alignment. If not, align and tighten them.

Handlebar ends: Make sure the left handlebar grip and right throttle grip are secure and in good condition.

If not, replace them.

Battery Pack Attachment: Ensure your battery pack is firmly attached to your bicycle before riding. To test

battery attachment, pull up on the battery pack handle after battery is locked in place. If attached properly

you will not be ableto slide the batteryoff the bike. If not, the battery pack will slide off the bike.

CAUTION: The braking of your bicycle is one of the highest concerns in safety. Proper brake lever

mounting and cable adjustment is crucial for your brakes to work properly.

WARNING: All Quick release levers must be closed and the clamps or axles tight. One loose quick

release lever can cause the rider to lose control and cause serious injury or death.

WARNING: Loose or damaged handlebar grips or extensions can cause you to lose control and fall.

Unplugged handlebars can cut your body, and can cause serious injury in an otherwise minor accident.

g) Before your first motorized ride

Before your first ride study this manual in its entirety. Make sure you are comfortable and confident when sitting on the

bicycle. If an adjustment does not feelright or something feels loose, check to ensure you are properly fitted to the bikeand

do a mechanical safety check as explained in the previous section. Make sure you fully charge your battery with the

appropriate charger included with your bicycle. Be sure to firmly attach the battery to the bicycle. Try to slide the battery off

the bike bythe battery handle to confirm proper installation. Read Chapter 3, section h. (the following section) again.

h) First motorized ride

When you buckle on your helmet and go for your first familiarization motorized ride on your new bicycle, be sure to pick a

controlled environment, away from people, other cyclists, obstacles or other hazards. Ride to become familiar with the

brake levers against throttling, variable throttle performance while pedaling your new bike and not pedaling. The first

motorized ride should be initially pedaling and then slowly pressing down on the throttle to feel the engagement of the

HUB motor. Familiarize yourself with the sensation of power.

Familiarize yourself with thebraking action of the bike. To test the brakes at slow speed, shift your weight towards the rear

and gently apply the brakes, rear brake first. Sudden or excessive application of the front brake could pitch you over the

handlebars.Applyingbrakestoohardcanlockupawheel, whichcouldcauseyou to lose control andfall(seesectionk.).

Your bike has a front suspension system, familiarize yourself with how the suspension responds to braking

application and rider weight shifts.

Check out the handling and response of the bike; and check the comfort.

If you have any questions, or if you feel anything about the bike is not as it should be, take the bike back to your

dealer for advice or contact Customer Service at ProdecoTechnologies.

i) Riding an electric bicycle

Riding an electric bike is similar to riding a non-electric bike but there are some differences to note. An electric bike is

slightly heavier and requires more time to stop due to higher traveling speeds. Your bike is also equipped with a powerful

motor that provides a noticeable boost when starting from a stop. The boost is exhilarating, but you must be comfortable

with the sensation before riding in crowded or congested areas. To maximize battery life, assist with pedaling, engage

throttle to 90% or less and add considerable coasting with no throttle to your riding. Your battery is a finite resource and

proper riding techniques will prolong its distance per charge.

j) Using your thumb throttle (SEE PHOTO)

The variable throttleon your Outlawwas designed to allowyou the ability

tochoose thespeedto rideat anddetermine theamountof torqueoffthe

line. The throttle operates similar to an automobile; the pressing of the

thumb throttle mimics the depressing of the accelerator. The throttle is

located on the right side grip and considered a variable thumb throttle.

The grip itself does not twist. Using your thumb, press the throttle lever

down to propel the bike forward. A thumb throttle is used to avoid

accidentally twisting a grip when mounting and dismounting the bicycle.

Your throttle also includes a Power ON and Power OFF button. It is the

red button located underneath the LED lights. Depressing the button in

activates the throttle and pressing the button out will deactivate the

throttle. The ON / OFF button is for further safety. There is also an LED

set of lights which assist in determining the amount of battery storage

capacity remaining. This is discussed in further detail later in the manual.

Throttling is an important factor with any electric bicycle and the distance

of traveling available percharge.The higher thespeed,theless distance

per charge, hard accelerations also decrease distance per charge. Multiple stops and take offs in a ride also affect the range of

distance per charge. It is recommended you become accustomed to your style of riding and adjust the style depending on

distance needed per charge. For example: if you are planning a short local trip, full throttle at takeoff and top speed will not be an

issueduetoyourabilitytobeabletorechargethebatterypriortothenexttrip.If youareplanningalongertrip,8milesormore,itis

suggested you add pedaling, hold throttle back 10% and whenever possible allow the bicycle to coast under no power. Coasting

under no power is similar to riding a traditional pedal powered bicycle. When riding, a rider will pedal for a few seconds and then

stoppedaling,allowingthebiketocoastwithnopowerbeingused.Thiswillgreatlyincreaseyour distancebetweencharging.

k) Using your brakes

Your Outlaw is equipped with a high performance Avid Elixir 5 Hydraulic Disc Brake system. The Elixir 5 front and rear disc

brakes allow your new Outlaw to stop quickly and accurately. Oversized Avid HS ―Heat Shedding‖ stainless steel disc rotors

were utilized for the axles for increased heat dissipation. Hydraulic brakes are self-adjusting. No adjustments are required

once the calipers are properly installed utilizing Avid’s Tri Align spherical and concave CPS bolt system. When properly

mounted, the Outlaw high performance disc brake system offers tremendous stopping power. Prior to leaving the factory,

the Outlaw brakes were properly mounted and tested. Disc brakes however do require a bed-in process which occurs

naturally after 20-40 stops. It can be sped up by following the bed-in guidelines detailed in Chapter 7 ―Maintenance and

Replacement‖, section c ―Brake pad bed in‖.

When braking, both brake levers should be applied simultaneously. Your left brake lever manages your front brake and

your right brake lever manages your rear brake. You should become accustomed to the stopping power of each brake

(front & rear). Test each brake separately in a controlled environment for their ability to stop the bicycle. Front brakes when

locked can cause the rear wheel to come off the ground and the rider can be thrown off the bicycle. In emergency

situations, apply pressure to each brake lever, shift your weight to the back of the bicycle and only attempt to use full force

on the front brakes when the bicycle is not stopping quickly enough. Always keep a safe distance between other vehicles,

pedestrians and other riders.

WARNING: Locking the front wheel during braking can cause the rear wheel to lift off the ground and

throw the rider off the bicycle. Both brake levers should be applied simultaneously. In an emergency situation

shift your weight to the back of the bicycle. Locking the front wheel can cause the rider to lose control, be

thrown off the bicycle and cause serious injury or death.

m) Pedaling

Ped aling your Outlaw is the same as pedaling a traditional bicycle. It is recommended you add pedaling to the power of

the bicycle to enhance the distance per charge. The Outlaw is a 8 speed bicycle and has the ratio of a 42T front chain

ring (sprocket) against a 11-28T rear freewheel which is designed to offer an easy pedaling pace at any speed from 1

MPH to 18 MPH. It is recommended on steep inclines, the rider utilizes the throttle to assist in powering the bicycle up

the incline while simultaneously dropping the bicycle to a lower gear. If a rider’s style of riding is throttle only with no

pedaling, distance per charge will be decreased. Upon a steep incline, the rider is required to assist the motor by

pedaling to power up the incline.

n) Shifting gears (SEE PHOTO)

The shifting of gears is required to change the ratio of the rotation of pedaling to

allow more or less torque and lower or higher speeds according to one

complete rotation of the crank set. If requiring more torque, you will shift to a

larger rear sprocket for a higher rotation of pedaling to a lower speed of the rear

wheel. To switch to a larger rear sprocket, you will need to shift to a lower gear.

Gear 1 is the largest sprocket which is 28 Teeth and your lowest gear. One full

crank rotation creates a 1.57 turn of the rear wheel. For higher speeds from less

rotation of the crankset on flat pathways, you will shift to a smaller rear sprocket

for a higher wheel rotation to a lower crankset speed. To shift to a smaller

sprocket, you will need to shift to a higher gear. Gear 8 is the smallest sprocket

with 11 Teeth and your highest gear. One full crank rotation creates a 3.8 turn of

the rear wheel. Please reviewthe photo on shifting gears.

o) Watching for obstacles around you

Your new Outlaw travels at higher speeds than most riders are accustomed to, when pedaling a traditional bicycle. It is very

important you are aware of your surroundings and obstacles which may appear near you. You must watch the path surface

you are traveling on which could cause the tires to slip or cause a flat. Examples are soft shoulders, rocks, holes, uneven

paths, grates, construction sites. Due to the higher rate of speed when riding under motor power versus pedaling, objects

will advance into your path at a faster rate. Pay attention to other riders in your area, vehicles, motorcycles, pedestrians,

poles, cross paths and signs to name a few. The Outlaw resembles a traditional bicycle and people walking, driving or

standing may not realize you are on a motor powered vehicle and misjudge your traveling speed.

WARNING: Hitting a pot hole, soft shoulder or other road deviation may cause you to lose control, be

thrown and cause serious injury or death.

p) Safe riding in various conditions

Riders may find themselves riding in a condition they did not plan on encountering. It is important your new Outlaw is

maintained properly for optimum performance. Please read Chapter 7 on the details required to keep your electric bicycle at its

best. An unexpected rain storm, snow flurry or night ride could arise during a day’s trip and you should always be prepared.

Please readChapter 4 on Safety, so uponencountering anunexpectedriding condition, youwill be confident and ready.

q) Charging your battery

The Outlaw’s battery system is the safest and latest technology in Lithium Ion battery cells and was designed to be easily

charged. Chapter 8 offers a detailed explanation on battery management but the following information is a basic guide in

charging your battery. The battery is a removable device and can be charged on or off the bicycle. If removing the battery

to charge it, please followthese instructions.

Locate the key ignition on the battery and turn the key in a counter clockwise rotation to the ―UNLOCK‖

position. You must push the key in to turn from the ―OFF‖ position to the ―UNLOCK‖ position.

Grab the handle at the back of batteryand carefullypull towards the back of the bicycle to slide off.

The batteryis now transportable and can be charged away from the bicycle when in ―UNLOCK‖ position.

For charging, please review the following instructions.

Locate the RCA charging input at the front of the battery and open the charger input cover.

Insert the charging plug from the charger into the battery’s RCA charging input.

Insert the charger’s power cord into a wall outlet.

The charger’s LED light will light RED while the charger is charging the battery.

The charger’s LED light will light GREEN upon the battery being fully charged.

There is also a battery indicator for checking a full charge. Press the indicator button to display the battery’s

energy storage. The indicator is located on top of the battery.

Once the battery is fully charged, you should discontinue charging and remove the charger.

Unplug the charger’s power cord from the wall and remove the charging plug from the battery.

You are ready to install the battery pack back onto your bicycle.

To install the battery, first align the bottom of the battery with the batterybase rail.

Once aligned, slide the battery firmly into the battery base and until the battery base terminals insert into the

battery’s terminal outlets. The battery’s locking slots must slide properly onto the mount’s 3 metal tabs.

Once the battery is properly slid into place, you can then turn the key to the ―ON‖ position.

The LEDs on the throttle in the ―ON‖ position will display a charged battery’s energy capacity.

Chapter 4: Safety

The manual has detailed safety riding methods. In this chapter we will further discuss additional safety guidelines.

a) The basics

Below is a safetyguideline according to the CPSC (US Consumer Product Safety Commission) in regards to riding a bike.

Always wear a helmet to help prevent head injuries.

Observe all traffic laws andsignals, just as automobiles must do.

Don’t ride double or attempt stunts.

Ride near thecurb in the same direction as traffic.

Find alternate routes, rather than ride through busyintersections and heavy or high-speed traffic.

Walk -- don't ride -- your bicycle across busy intersections and left turn corners.

Avoid riding in wet weather. When wet, handbrakes mayrequire a long distance to stop.

Avoid riding in the dark. If you do, be sure the bike is equipped with a headlight, a taillight and reflectors.

Apply retro-reflective trim to clothing, or wear reflective vests and jackets.

Avoid loose clothing or long coats that can catch in pedals or wheels. Leg clips or bands keep pants legs

from tangling in the chain.

Avoid crossingraised sewer grates.

Regular maintenance is essential for safe riding. Refer to the maintenance recommendations. If you do not

have basic mechanical skills, an authorized dealer should perform repairs and maintenance.

Align (or "true") wobbly wheels for better control. Spokes also may need adjustment.

Replace all missing, damaged, or worn parts; for example, brake pads, chainguards, chain links, spokes,

screws and bolts, handlebar grips.

Tighten and/or adjust loose parts.

Periodically inspect frame, fork, spindles and other components for cracking.

Parts should be adjusted to manufacturer's torque specifications.

Inflate tires to recommended pressure, and replace worn tires.

Lightly oil and clean moving parts. Keep oil off rubber.

Keep bicycle indoors when not in use.

b) Riding Safety

Below are guidelines according to the NHSTA (National Highwayand Traffic Safety Administration) on bicycle safety.

Protect Your Head: Wear a Helmet - Never ride a bicycle without wearing a properly fitted helmet. Helmets are

proven to be 85-88 percent effective in preventing traumatic brain injury, the primary cause of death and disabling

injuries resulting from cycling crashes. Wear a helmet that meets the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission

(CPSC) standard (seeinside of helmet for presence of a label).

Assure Bicycle Readiness: Ensure Proper Size and Function of Bicycle - Make sure the bicycle fits you: Stand

over the top of the Outlaw bicycle –there should be minimum 3 inches of clearance from theframe bar. Seat height —

as previously mentioned, with the ball of your foot on the pedal, the fully extended leg should have a slight bend.

Check all parts of the bicycle to make sure they are secure and working well: The Handlebar should be firmly in place

and turns easily. The wheels must be straight and secure; the quick release rear axle must be secured.

Stop It: Always Check Brakes Before Riding - Always control your speed by using your brakes. Apply the rear

brake slightly before the front brake. Always keep your brakes adjusted. If you cannotstop quickly, adjust your brakes.

Review Chapter 7 ―Maintenance and Replacement‖ section c ―Brake adjustments‖ to adjust the brakes. When your

hand brake levers are fully applied, they should not touch the handlebars. Ride slowly in wet weather and apply your

brakes earlier, it takes more distance to stop.

See and Be Seen - Wear clothes that make you more visible. Always wear neon, florescent, or other bright colors

when riding a bicycle.

Avoid Biking at Night - It is far more dangerous to ride a bicycle at night than during the day. The Outlaw requires

LED lights for night time riding. If you must ride at night, you should also do the following: wear retro-reflective clothing

or material, not just white or florescent, especially on your ankles, wrists, back, and helmet. Only ride in areas familiar

to you. Brightly litstreets are best. Always assume you are not seen bya driver. Children should NOT ride at night.

Go With the Flow: The Safe Way is the RIGHT Way - Ride on the right side in a straight, predictable path. Always

go single file in the same direction as other vehicles. Riding against traffic puts you where motorists don't expect you.

Theymay not see you, and may pull across your path, or turn into you.

Check for Traffic: Always Be Aware of the Traffic Around You - Over 70 percent of car-bicycle crashes occur at

driveways or other intersections. Before you enter any street or intersection, check for traffic. Always look left-right-left,

and walk your bicycle into the street to begin your ride. If you are already in the street, always look behind you for a

break-in traffic, then signal before going left or right. Watch for left or right turning traffic.

Learn Rules of The Road: Obey Traffic Laws - Bicycles are considered vehicles. Bicyclists must obey the same

rules as motorists. Read your State drivers handbook, and learn and follow all the traffic signs, laws, and rules for

operating a vehicle on the road. Always signal your moves. Be courteous to pedestrians and other vehicle operators.

Never wear headphones while riding as they impair your ability to hear traffic. Become familiar with the

accommodations that are available for bicyclists in your area. These include bicycle lanes and routes as well as off-

road paths. Take advantage of these whenever possible.

“Drive” with Care: Share the Road - When you ride, consider yourself the driver of a vehicle and always keep safety

in mind. Choose to ride in the bike lane, if available. If the roadway or bike lane is wide, ride to the right; if the lane is

narrow, you may choose to ride in the middle of the lane. Take extra precautions when riding on a roadway. Bicycles

are smaller than automobiles, and don’t protect the operator like an automobile. You should: Make eye contact, smile,

or wave to communicate with motorists. Courtesy and predictability are a key to safe cycling; be considerate and

aware of motorists and pedestrians. Learn to anticipate their actions. Remember, pedestrians have the right of way;

Ride far enough away from the curb to avoid the unexpected from parked cars (i.e. opening doors or drivers pulling out

without checking); Keep control of your bicycle: look behind you while maintaining your bicycle in a straight path; be

able to ride with one hand on the handlebars and signal a turn. (Practice these skills in a parking lot); Always look over

your shoulder, and if possible, signal before changing lanes; Make sure that books, clothes, and other items are

securely attached to the bicycle or carried in a backpack; and Use bells, horns, or your voice to alert pedestrians and

bicyclists that you are approachingor passing.

Stay Focused: Stay Alert - Never wear headphones; they hinder your ability to hear traffic. Always look for obstacles

in your path (potholes, cracks, expansion joints, railroad tracks, wet leaves, drainage grates, or anything that could

make you fall). Beforegoingaround anyobject, scan ahead and behind youfor a gapin traffic, signal your intentions to

move, and then follow through with your intentions. Be aware of the traffic around you. Ride defensively. Use extra

care when riding in wet weather, ice, frost, or snow. Slow your speed and allow extra time and space to stop. Use

extra care when crossing bridges which are extra slippery under wet conditions. Use caution when crossing a railroad

track; cross tracks at a 90-degree angle and proceed slowly.

c) Wet weather riding

Wheneverpossible,youshouldavoidriding yourbicycleintherain.Ridingabicycleintherainislikedrivingacarinthesnow.You

will not be able to stop as fastand must leave a larger distance between you and the obstacles around you. Your brakes will not

work as efficientlywhen theyarewet. You will notbe abletoturn as sharpwithoutthe dangerofslipping. You mustalso rideaway

from or be cautious around painted lines, pot holes, sewer or drain grates, rail road crossings, bridges, wet leaves and any other

area where a slipperysurface can appear with water. Keep an eye out for puddles and turn your lightson if you havethem. If you

live in an environment where rainriding is expected, you should install front and rear fenders if you havenot alreadydoneso. Use

acoverforyourbicycleifleavingitoutdoors.Extensiveraincanseepintothecontroller andbatteryandcausewaterdamage.

d) Reflectors

The CPSC (US Consumer Product SafetyCommission) requires front, rear, wheel and pedal reflectors. Your Outlaw includes

federal regulated reflectors and theyshould not be removed. If needing to be replaced, replace them with authorized Prodeco

reflectors orreflectors approved bytheCPSC.

e) Night riding

Almost anywhere in the world today, bicycle night riding requires front and rear lights on your bicycle. You must install front and

rear lights if you plan on riding at night. Check your local laws on what is required for night riding. Always wear retro-reflective

clothing or material, not just white or florescent, especially on your ankles, wrists, back, and helmet. Onlyride in areas familiar

to you. Brightlylit streetsare best.Always assume you arenot seen bya driver. Children shouldNOT ride at night.

f) Adding accessories

When adding accessories to your bicycle you must check to confirm they do not lower the safety value of your bicycle.

Prodeco Technologies offers authorized accessoriesfor your bicycle which have been approved not to lower thesafety value.

Ask your authorized dealer or contact us if you are not sure about adding an accessory to your bicycle and the possibility of

lowering your bicycle’s overall safety.

Chapter 5: Perfect Fit and Ride

It is very important your new Outlaw is adjusted properly for your size and for comfort. The Outlaw has multiple adjustments

available to offer a comfortable and safe position for riding. Aproperly sized and adjusted bicycle allows the rider toremain fully

alert and avoid injury. Review this chapter carefully and all the adjusting points of your new Outlaw. If you have difficulty in

obtaining the most comfortable riding position or performing available adjustments, contact your authorized dealer for advice.

You can contact Prodeco Technologies directly by phone or email and we will assist you with the proper adjustments for your

bicycle and your size. The followinglist is theareas of adjustabilitythe Outlaw offers:

Saddleheight

Saddlenoseangle

Saddledistanceto handlebar

Handlebarheight

Fork height

Brake lever angle

Brake lever reach

Fork suspensionfirmness

a) The basics

Understanding the basics of a bicycle frame size will help in determining the correct positions and adjustments for your body

size and comfort. The Outlaw’s frame was designed to easily accommodate all riders from 5’ 8‖ to 6’ 6‖ utilizing the available

adjustments. The frame size can be considered anywhere from an 18‖ to 23‖ if comparing to traditional measurements. The

most important information to remember when sizing your bicycle is that you are comfortable riding, especially when pedaling.

With throttled electric bicycles some riders maychoose not to pedal and the measurement will be different than for a rider who

chooses to pedal and is the same size. Scooters for instance have a much lower saddle height than bicycles due to scooters

not being pedaled. A higher saddle height is only recommended for riders who pedal allowing them a full extension of their leg

per rotation of thecrank.

b) Frame size

The Outlaw is considered an 18‖ MTB frame. The typical measurement number when choosing a correctframe size for a rider

is the seat tube length. This number usually is between 17‖ to 19‖ for categorizing MTB bicycle measurements. The seat tube

length is measured from the centerline of the crank (bottom bracket) to the top of the seat tube (seat tube clamp). There is

another measurement sometimes forgotten which is actually more important and this is the top tube length (seat tube to the

steering tube). Most manufacturers will proportionally adjust the top tube length according to the seat tube length and with

stemsbeingavailable in variouslengths,fine tuning of this measurementis easilyaccomplished.

Prodeco Technologies Outlaw’s frame measurement will differ from traditional bicycle frames due to the seattube being longer

than a traditional bicycle. The addition of the battery mount required an extension to the seat tube by 2 inches; therefore the

measurement is 20‖. The measurement of the top tube and other frame components however follow the principals of an 18‖

MTB frame. The Outlaw’s further has a high rake seat tube angle. With the high angle seat tube, as a tall rider raises their

saddle to accommodatetheir longer legs,thesaddlewill pull back offeringalonger distance to thesteeringtube.

c) Recommended sizing

In today’s bicycle industry, the top tube length is actually more important than the seat tube length. With seat posts now

available over 300mm, the seat tube length is no longer the most important number. The distance of the bottom bracket to

the road should also be taken into consideration when sizing a bike. The top tube length is traditionallythe distance from the

center of the seat tubeto the center of the steering tube. For purposes of sizing the Outlaw, we will name thedistance of the

center of the saddle to the center of the handlebar the steering length (similar to the top tube length).

You can adjust the steering length of your Outlaw by establishing the saddle position and seatpost height. The saddle

position can be adjusted for height and distance from the steering tube via the quick release clamp and the saddle clamp.

Keep in mind by increasing the height of the saddle, this will also increase the steering length due to the high rake angle of

the seat tube. If you choose to use your bicycle as a scooter style vehicle only, you should establish saddle height at a

lower position to reduce the center of gravity. Saddle height can be reduced to just above your inseam. Your inseam is the

measurement of the inside of your leg.

d) Control position adjustments

The Outlaw includesa variablethumb throttle with an LED batteryindicator on

the right sideand an 8Speedtwist shifter on the left side of the handlebar.The

throttle can be adjusted on the handlebar to rotate further up or down, using

the 3mm hex key included with your multi-piece tool kit. The shifter can be

adjusted on the handlebar to rotate also using the multi-tool included with the

bicycle. The brakelever assembly and throttle mount together and at a certain

point of rotation, one will not rotate further without the other requiring to be

rotated.If thefactorysettings onthethrottleorshifterare uncomfortablefor you

or you cannot view the LED battery, you can loosen the throttle clamp and

move it into a preferred position. As stated above, you mayhave to loosen the

brake assemble to move the throttle to your desired position. Please see

section e ―Brake lever height adjustments‖ following this section to loosen and

adjust the brake lever assembly and maintain correct brake lever height

adjustments. To loosen and adjust the throttle, locate the 3mm hex bolt at the

front underside of the LED batteryindicator on the throttle. Use your 3mm hex

key and insert it into the hex bolt and rotate a minimum of 3 times counter

clockwise. The throttle will now be loose enough to move. Throttle clamp

bolts should betightenedto25lb*in.

e) Brake lever adjustments

The preferred level of the brake lever assemblies will vary from rider to rider.

The brake lever assemblies can be rotated to a desired riding position. The

optimal position can be found byextending your fingers straight while sitting

in the saddle. Your fingers, when extended straight, should reston top of the

levers or slightlyabovethelevers.

The brake lever assembly has a clamp bolt (see 1 in photo) accessible from

the top of the bracket. Using the T-25 Torx ® wrench included within your

multi-use tool, loosen the brake lever assembly by turning the T-25 bolt

counter clockwise. The lever assembly will now be loose and you can rotate

it up or down to establish the preferred position to applythe brakes. A brake

lever assembly may require the throttle clamp or shifter clamp to be

loosened to allow the brake lever assembly to rotate. The brake lever

assembly,throttleandshifter mount canpreventeachother nottorotateata

certain point; one will not rotate further without the other requiring to be

rotated. A compromisemay be required when attempting to align the brake

levers and establishing the preferred throttle and /or shifter position. The

the point whereyour fingers extendstraightoutfrom yourarms. Uponfinding

preferred brake lever position, tighten the T-25 Torx ® bolt using your multi-

usetool.Brake leverclampboltsshouldbetightenedto55lb*in.

The reachcan also be adjusted which determines the positionof the lever in

relation to the grip. The reach can be reduced or increased. It is important to

note the decrease length of reach will result in reduced brake pad travel.

f) Suspension fork

The Outlaw uses a dual pre-load

double crown adjustable suspension

fork. The fork’s dual leg adjustment

offers either a softer of firmer ride

for smoothing out the bumps in

your path. The pre-load can be

adjusted according to your weight

and preference. You can easily

adjust the suspension performance

by rotating the knobs at the top of

each leg at the crown.

The fork can also be adjusted for

height in relation to the frame.

Depending on riding style, the fork

can be adjusted for an increased

rake by adjusting the crown further

up thestanchions. The higher crown adjustment wouldcreate amore upright riding position. For aggressive riding trail

riding, the fork must have thecrown adjusted to the lowest stanchion setting. The higher crown adjustment diminishes

steering control and it is not recommended. The Outlaw ships with the crown in the lowest setting.(SEE PHOTOS)

Chapter 6: Tire, Tube, Wheel and Axle Repair

The Outlaw was designed for ease of servicing. Repairs are no more difficult than on a traditional bicycle. Any

neighborhood bicycle shop should be able to repair a flat, change a tire or replace a wheel. Please review the following

chapter on how to remove and replace the front and rear wheel of your Outlaw.

a) Removing the rear motor wheel

The wheel incorporates a motor wire quick disconnect for removing the wheel. To remove the wheel following these

instructions will only take a few minutes. Read the instructions fully before first attempting to remove the wheel.

Prior to removing the wheel, shiftthe bicycle into gear 7 or 8 (the small COG/sprocket on therear cassette. It will be

Next, turn the battery ignition key to the ―UNLOCK‖ position andremove the battery.

To work on your bicycle, it may be easier to turn the bicycle upside down by placing blankets on the ground

and resting the bicycle on the saddle and handlebar.

Locate the motor disconnect weather proof plug on the left side of the bike frame 6 inches from the motor

axle and separate the connector.

Locate the cable tie which ties the motor wire to the frame. Cut the cable tie with snips.

On each axle nut there is a rubber nut protector, remove these protectors simply by pulling on them. On the

wiredside of the axle, slide the rubber protector up the wire only a few inches.

Using a wrench, turn counter clockwise each axle nut until the axle washers are loose.

Remove the wheel from the frame by pulling on the wheel.

CLOSED MOTOR CONNECTION OPEN MOTOR CONNECTION

b) Installing the rear motor wheel

The rear motorized wheel easilyinstalls onto the rear frame dropouts within afew minutes. Follow the instructions below on

installing the rear motor wheel. Additional cable ties are included with the Outlaw SS. One cable tie will be needed to install

the motor. Read the instructions fully before attempting to install the wheel. (SEE PHOTOS)

Pull or push the rear derailleur lower pulley with chain out of the wayof the dropouts.

Now check to make sure the chain is not in the way and align the wheel above (below if bike is not upside

down) the dropouts and pay attention to the lining up of the disk brake rotor into the brake caliper (between

the pads).

Prior to inserting the wheel into the dropouts, pull the chain onto the cassette.

Slide the motor into the frame dropouts by aligning the axle into the dropouts. The axle has flat edges which

require the axle to enter the dropouts with the flat edges facing front and back. The axle with the motor wire

protruding is to enter the left side dropout (the left side is when standing behind the handlebar).

Now check to make sure the chain is not in the way and align the wheel above (below if bike is not upside

down) the dropouts and pay attention to the lining up of the disk brake rotor into the brake caliper (between

the pads).

Each axleside has washers and a nut. Slide the washers over the axles and tighten nuts by hand.

Using a wrench, fully tighten axle nuts. Axle nuts should be tightened to 250 lb*in.

Plug motor connection by aligning arrows on each end of the connector and slide together.

Once connectors are plugged, you must test the connection. Install the battery as described in Chapter 8

―Battery Management‖ section c ―Installing and locking the battery‖. Turn the ignition key to ―ON‖ at the

battery mount. LED lights on throttle will light up displaying power to the motor. Pull the rear motor wheel off

the ground (if the bicycle is not turned upside down) and turn the throttle to test the motor. If the motor turns,

the connection is solid. If motor does not turn, turn key to ―OFF‖ position at battery mount and then check

the motor connector to ensure a solid connection has be made. Test again after checking.

After confirming a solid connection, use a new cable tie to connect the motor cable to the side of the frame

and once tightened, cut off anyexcess amount.

c) Removing and installing the front wheel (20mm thru axle)

The front axle on your Prodeco Outlaw is a 20mm thick thru axle utilizing a

sealed bearing hub. The sealed bearing hub slides over the axle. The axle

requires to be slid out to remove the front hub. The axle is a smooth hollow

aluminum pipe threaded at each end with a 6mm hex safetybolt.The axle is

further held in place by the compression of the forks dropouts at the lower

legs. The dropouts contain 2 bolts at the underside of each leg which upon

tightening, lock the axle in place. Please follow these steps when removing

theaxle.Toinstallthe axle,simplyreversethe steps.(SEEPHOTO)

On the end of each axle there is a 6mm hex socket bolt. You will need to

loosen one of the bolts from either side of the axle 50%for now.

At the underside of each fork leg at the dropout, there are 2 hex bolts. The

hex bolts compressthe fork dropoutto lock theaxle in place. All4bolts (2 at

each leg’s dropout) are required to be loosened for the 20mm thru axle to be

slidout.

Once the 4 dropout bolts have been loosened, tap inwards on the safety

bolt which has been extended 50%. This will cause the axle to start

sliding thru the hub. After partially sliding the axle, completely remove the

safety 6mm hex bolt and pull the axle out from the opposite side. The

frontwheel will thenslideout.

d) Replacing a tube or tire

Read the previous sections to learn how to remove and replace the front and rear wheel. You will need to understand

how to remove the wheel prior to replacing a tube or tire. This section only explains how to remove the tire from the rim

and how to replace a tube.

Before explaining how to replace a tube and tire, details on the Outlaw’s tubes and tires are discussed. Tubes and tires

are 2 of the most important components on your new bicycle and must always be in optimum condition. It is important

you understand about the tubes and tires equipped on your bicycle.

The Outlaw uses high-performance Continental Trail King tires with a 45 PSI rating. Bicycle tires are available in many

designs and specifications, ranging from general-purpose designs to tires designed to perform best under very specific

weather or terrain conditions. If, once you’ve gained experience with your new bicycle, you feel that a different tire might

better suit your riding needs; your dealer can help you select themost appropriate design.

The size, pressure rating, and on some high-performance tires the specific recommended use, are marked on the

sidewall of the tire. The most important part of this information for you is Tire Pressure. The best and safest way to inflate

a bicycle tire to the correct pressure is with a bicycle pump that has a built-in pressure gauge.

WARNING: Never inflate a tire beyond the maximum pressure marked on the tire’s sidewall. Exceeding

the recommended maximum pressure may blow the tire off the rim, which could cause damage to the bike and

injury to the rider and bystanders.

WARNING: There is a safety risk in using gas station air hoses or other air compressors. They are not

made for bicycle tires. They move a large volume of air very rapidly, and will raise the pressure in your tire very

rapidly, which could cause the tube to explode.

Tire pressure is given either as maximum pressureor as a pressure range. How a tire performs under different terrain or weather

conditions depends largely on tire pressure. Inflating the tire to near its maximum recommended pressure gives the lowest rolling

resistance; but also produces the harshest ride. High pressures work best on smooth, dry pavement. Verylow pressures,at the

bottom of the recommended pressure range, give the best performance on smooth, slick terrain such as hard-packed clay, and

on deep, loose surfaces suchas deep, drysand. Tire pressure that is too low for your weight and the riding conditions can cause

apunctureofthetubebyallowingthetiretodeform sufficientlytopinchtheinnertubebetweentherim andtheridingsurface.

CAUTION: Pencil type automotive tire gauges can be inaccurate and should not be relied upon for

consistent, accurate pressure readings. Instead, use a high quality dial gauge.

Ask your dealer to recommend the best tire pressure for the kind of riding you will most often do, and have the dealer inflate

your tires to that pressure. Then, visually check inflation by sitting on the saddle with your weight and noticing your tires

response. You should also squeeze tires and feel resistance so you’ll know how correctly inflated tires should look and feel.

Some tires may need to be brought up to pressure every week or two. Other high-performance tires may also have

unidirectional treads, similar to the factory tires on your Outlaw: their tread pattern is designed to work better in one direction

than in the other. The sidewall marking of a unidirectional tire will have an arrow showing the correct rotation direction. When

replacing your tires with tiresthat areunidirectional,besurethat theyaremountedto rotate in the correctdirection.

There are primarily two kinds of bicycle tube valves: The Schrader Valve and the Presta Valve. The bicycle pump you use

must have the fitting appropriate to the valvestems on your bicycle. The Outlaw uses Schrader valves. The Schrader valve is

like the valve on a car tire. To inflate a Schrader valve tube, remove the valve cap and clamp the pump fitting onto the end of

the valve stem. To let air out of a Schrader valve, depress the pin in the end of the valve stem with the end of a key or other

appropriate object. ThePresta valve has a narrower diameter and is only found on bicycle tires.To inflate a Presta valve tube

using a Presta headed bicycle pump, remove the valve cap; unscrew (counterclockwise) the valve stem lock nut; and push

down on the valve stem tofree it up. Then pushthe pump head on to the valve head, andinflate. To inflate a Presta valve with

a Schrader pump fitting, you’ll need a Presta adapter (available at your bike shop) which screws on to the valve stem once

you’ve freed up the valve. The adapter fits into the Schrader pump fitting. Close the valve after inflation. To let air out of a

Presta valve, open up thevalve stem lock nut anddepress the valvestem.

WARNING: Patching a tube is an emergency repair. If you do not apply the patch correctly, the tube can

possibly fail, which could cause you to lose control and fall. Replace a patched tube as soon as possible.

Toremove a tire or tube, follow theseinstructions (you will need tire levers or a similar tool to hold open the bead of the tire):

Let all the air out from the tube of the wheel having the replacement.

Remove the wheel as described in detail in the previous sections.

Remove the inner tubes air valve cover.

Pull back the tire bead away from the rim. You will see the tube and the inside of the tire. If it requires too high

pressuretopull back thetire bead,theremaybestill airin thetube. Check to confirm all the air isout of the tube.

Using 2 tire levers or similar tools, insert one lever end in between the tire bead and the rim but make sure

the lever is on top of the tube and you are not pinching the tube.

Slide the second lever about 4-6 inches to the side of the first lever. Be sure not to pinch the tube and to

confirm you have the lever on top of the tube and not under the tube. Slide the lever down the side of the

wheel between the tire bead and rim edge while lifting the tire bead and sidewall over the rim edge.

If removing only the tube, you can now pull the tube outside the side of the tire wall. If replacing the tube,

you can now install the new tube.

If removing the tire, use the tire levers and repeat the previous steps and remove the opposite side of the

tire’s sidewall bead on the same side of the rim you removed the first tire bead. The tire may easily come off

the rim if you pull the tire bead over the edge of the rim and the tire levers may not have to be used.

To install a new tire, follow these instructions:

When installing a new tire you should first insert the tube into the tire. The tube should have been partially

inflated to a soft but full feel removing anywrinkles in the tube.

Check the mounting side of the rim and confirm the directional path of the tire. High performance tires are

usually directional tires and the arrow on the sidewall represents the rotation of the tire.

Place the valve of the tube into the valve hole of the rim and slide the bead of the tire over the edge of the rim.

Push the one side wall and bead of the tire around the edge of the wheel’s rim. The tire will slide into place

and may become tight as you finish.

Once one side of the tire is inserted in the rim, check to make sure the valve stem lines up properly and the

tube issmooth across the rim and inside of tire. The tubeshould not be bunched up in any area.

Where the tube valve is, slide the second wall and bead of the tire into the edge of time rim. Follow pushing

the tire wall and bead into the inside edge of the rim.

You will get to an area of only a few inches left and you will need to apply pressure to push the tire side wall

and bead behind the edge of the rim.

Once the tire is fully inserted, check for any areas on both sides if the tube is exposed. The tube must not

get trapped between the tire bead and rim edge.

Locate the tube valve and use your hand to push on the tire on the outside of the valve to help push the

valve further out through the rim.

Fill the tube with 50% air and then check the tire bead and rim edge again to see if the tube is protruding

anywhere.Once you confirm the tube is not protruding, you can fill the tire to your desired air pressure.

You are now ready to install the wheel back onto the bicycle according to the previous sections.

Chapter 7: Maintenance and Replacement

Your new Outlaw was designed for ease of use and owner servicing. There are no tasks which require advanced skills.

Most maintenance and replacing of parts were designed to be accomplished by the typical bicycle rider. Please read this

section to learn how to keep your Outlaw performing like new.

a) Keeping your bike clean

Your new Outlaw is an outdoor friendly electric bicycle but should be kept clean and free from dirt. Dirt on and around

seals and drive train components can cause premature wear and dirt on paint and part finishes can cause premature

aging. If storing your bicycle outdoors under the elements, you must keep it covered with a high quality bicycle cover to

avoidrain, snow or dirt damaging your new bicycle.

To clean your bicycle, follow these instructions:

Your bicycle incorporates electrical components; it is advised when washing your bicycle you should first cover the

throttle and battery base. Use a plastic bag or a piece of plastic wrap to cover the components. Place the bag or wrap

around the complete throttle assembly and use a rubber band or tape to secure. The battery should be removed prior

to cleaning and a plastic bag or wrap secured by tape can be used to cover the battery base. If you are planning for a

ride after washing, it is recommended the saddle also be covered. The saddle has miniature holes where there is

stitching and water can seep into these small holes.

To wash your bicycle you will need asmall bucket of warm water with car soap, sponge, small brush,chain lube and a

few rags or towels.

Rinse your bicycle off with a light spray of water to remove any dirt on the surface. Using the sponge and warm soapy

water, wash the frame and frame components which include the forks, handlebar and seat post. Start from the top of

the bicycle working your way down.

Once the frame is washed, use the sponge to clean the motor, spokes, chain guard and rims.

The tires, pedals, crankset andchain will be the remaining items needing to be washed. Use the brushfirst on the tires

and then the pedals. Rinse the brush and then using the warm soapy water, clean the chain ring, freewheel and finally

the chain. If the chain and drive train are verydirty or greasy, a bicycle degreaser should be utilized.

After washing, spraythe bicycle down with fresh water.

Use the rags or towels to dry off the bicycle. Start by drying the frame first, followed by the components, the wheels,

tires and then the drive train.

Once the drive train is dry, use a chain lube to lubricate the chain.

b) Avoid scratching your bike

Your new Outlaw is a high quality bicycle has been designed to withstand the elements by utilizing stainless steel, anodized

and painted aluminum alloys, brass plus galvanized or painted metals.Stainless steel and brassareused in their natural forms

and can withstand the elements with no additional protection required. The majority of your bicycle however is fabricated from

aluminum alloys which have either a painted finish or have been anodized. Aluminum does not rust but can discolor and

corrode over time. The frame has a 3 layer paint finish which protects the aluminum and graphics. Components such as the

handlebars,crank arms, chain guard, seatpost and more have been anodizedthrough an electrolyticprocess which increases

corrosion and wear resistance. If the frame or components become scratched, these items could slightly corrode around the

scratched area. Depending on the care of your bicycle, a scratch could take month or years for corrosion to appear. To

maintain future value and years of beauty, it is best to be careful when folding and moving your bicycle not to scratch the metal

surfaces.Ifa surfaceisscratched,useclear nailpolishor black nail polishtocover and seal thescratch.

c) Brake bed-in process and information

Both brakes on your Outlaw are high performance Avid Elixir 5 Hydraulic Disc Brakes. No adjusting is required as hydraulic

brakes self-adjust. They have powerful stopping power but must be bed in for maximum performance. Please review the

following guideline and you can also refer to the included Avid Elixir 5 brake guide included with your starter kit. If you are

unsure as toa component or installation procedure, pleasecontact your local authorized dealer or Prodeco Technologies.

AVID SAFETY INFORMATION

Brakes are a safety-critical item on a bicycle. Improper setup or use of brakes can result in loss of control or an accident,

which could lead to a severe injury.

Avid brakes are a performance product that offers increased stopping power over brakes that you may be used to. This

greater power requires less effort to lock-up a wheel when braking. A wheel lock up might cause you to lose control and

possiblycause injury.

It’s your responsibility to learn and understand proper braking techniques. Consult the owner’s manual for your bicycle

and a professional bike dealer.

ALWAYS RIDE UNDER CONTROL

Remember, it takes longer to stop in wet conditions. To reduce the possibility of an accident and minimize trail erosion,

you should avoid locking-up your wheels.

FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY

If you do not understand the instructions, have the brakes serviced by a professional bicycle mechanic.

Disc brakes are OIL SENSITIVE! Do not spray any solvents or lubricants in the vicinity of the rotors or brake pads.

NEVER touch the pad surface or rotor surface with your fingers. Doing so will significantly degrade braking performance.

AVID WARNING

Do not touch the braking surface of any rotor with your bare hands, because the oils from your fingers will degrade its

performance. Always wear gloves, or handle the rotor by its spokes. Disc brakes become very hot during use. Do not

touch the caliper or rotor immediately after use. Make sure the brake has cooled down before making any adjustments.

Hydraulic brake information

Use only DOT 4 or DOT 5.1 fluids with Avid brakes. DOT 5.1 fluids provide enhanced braking performance.

Do not use a fluid other than DOT fluids suggested. Doing so will damage the system make the brakes unsafe to use.

DOT fluids will damage painted surfaces. If any fluid comes in contact with a painted surface (i.e. your frame), wipe it

off immediately and clean with isopropyl.

Do not allow anybrakefluid to comein contact with the brake rotors. If this occurs, cleanthe rotors withisopropyl alcohol.

Do not allow any brake fluid to come in contact with the brakes pads. If this occurs, the pads are contaminated and

must be replaced.

Used DOT fluid should be recycled or disposed of in accordance to local and federal regulations.

NEVER pour used DOT fluid down a sewage or drainage system or into the ground or a body of water.

Before each ride

Check houses for signs of wear. Squeeze the brake lever firmly and check for proper brake function. Check pads for wear

andreplace if necessary. Ensure rotors are free of foreign substances and oils.

Pad Break In and Noise

It may take anywhere from 20 to 40 complete stops to break in Avid pads. You may begin to notice an increase in

braking power after the first ride. Brake noise can occur not only during the break-in period but off and on throughout the

life of the brake pads. Noise is dependent upon factors such as brake setup, rider weight, riding style, braking style, and

riding conditions (i.e. dust, soil, and contamination of friction surfaces).

Care and Cleaning

Extreme care must be taken when cleaning both the bicycle and its new disc brakes. Under normal use, it is not

necessary to clean the caliper rotor or pads. If necessary, use only water and dish detergent to wash the caliper and

rotor being sure to thoroughlyrinse all soap residues from the rotor. Drywith a clean paper towel.

d) Pad Replacement

A pad should be replaced when its total thickness (backing plate and friction material) is less than 3mm.

e) Derailleur adjustment (SRAM X9)

If the chain of your bicycle falls off at the largest COG/sprocket or the chain is having problems remaining on the correct

gear, you may need to adjust your derailleur. There are a multiple ways to adjust your derailleur but for a simple

adjustment on the changing of gears, follow these instructions.

Located at the shifter, the adjusting knob where the cable enters the shifter will adjust gear shifting. This knob

allows the loosening or tightening of the cable. Rotate this knob clockwise or counterclockwise until the derailleur

is properly changing gears. This is a quick fix but for a correct adjustment, the permanent adjustment should be

at the derailleur cable locking plate and fixing bolt with the shifter knob used for fine tuning.

For a more detailed adjustment of the derailleur, you should bring your bicycle to an authorized Prodeco dealer or a

neighborhood bike shop who services SRAM derailleurs. There is also a SRAM derailleur guide included with your bike.

SHIFTING ADJUSTMENT

Check that the chain and

the rear derailleur are in

the smallest cog position.

While pedaling, twist the

shifter up one detent.

If the chain hesitates or

does not shift to the

second cog, increase the

cable tension by turning

the shifting adjustment

knob counter clockwise.

If the chain shifts beyond the second cog, decrease the

cable tension by turning the shifting adjustment knob

clockwise.

Repeat the two former steps until shifting and cable tension

is accurate.

While turning the crank, shift the chain up and down the

cassette several times to ensure your derailleur is shifting

smoothly.
