IMPORTANT: READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE. RETAIN INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.
WARNING: Basic safety precautions should always be observed when using an electrical appliance to
reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock or serious injury.
1. Safety Notes
• 1.1) Personal Safety:
It is the owner’s/rider’s responsibility to properly assemble their bike and inspect all components and ensure
all nuts and bolts are properly tightened for safety or to trust a 3rd party to do so. This is important for all
bikes and even more critical for safety on an electric bike. Failure to do so may result in serious injury and/or
death.
This e-bike is intended for use on paved roads or paths only. Using the e-bike for any other purpose may
result in serious injury. Before you ride this e-bike in a busy area or on public roads, practice riding in a safe
area free of hazards. Take time to learn the e-bike’s controls and power. It is your responsibility to identify
and follow all local laws and regulations, including fitting your e-bike with any additional equipment
necessary to comply with local laws. At night your e-bike MUST have white front lights and red rear lights lit.
It MUST also be fitted with a red rear reflector and amber pedal reflectors. Use caution when loading your
e-bike into a car or when mounting it on a bicycle carrier. You must avoid damaging the wires of the electrical
components during riding, transporting and storing your electric bike.
1.2) E-bike Safety:
You must be 18 or over to ride this e-bike. Your e-bike is designed for a maximum permitted overall weight
(rider + cargo) of 300lbs. Your MUST have the bike inspected or assembled by someone experienced with
bike mechanics prior to use. Proper assembly and inspection of all nuts and bolts are vital for safety and
for your warranty coverage as damages due to improper assembly are not covered under warranty. Improper
assembly of critical components could lead to serious injury and or death. Do not submerge your e-bike in
water. Be aware that the speed at which you are traveling may be faster than you are used to, especially
when accelerating.
1.3) Electrical Safety:
Only use the charger supplied by Ride1UP. Do not store the bike or battery plugged into a wall outlet. Unplug
the battery before leaving the bike alone. Never modify the charger in any way. The charger has been
designed for a specific voltage, always check that the outlet’s voltage is the same as that stated on the
rating label. A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with
another battery pack; never use the charger with another appliance or attempt to charge this product with
another charger. Before use, check the charger cord for signs of damage. A damaged or entangled charger
cord increases the risk of fire and electric shock. Keep the charger cord away from hot surfaces and sharp
edges. Do not handle the charger with wet hands. Do not store or charge the appliance outdoors. The

charger must be removed from the socket before removing the battery, cleaning or maintaining the
appliance.
1.4) Brake Safety:
Regularly check your brakes for signs of wear and tear and functionality. Before every ride, quickly test and
visually check your brakes. Any worn parts must be repaired or replaced immediately. Be careful while
getting used to the brakes. Never brake with only your front brake. Practice emergency stops in a place clear
of traffic until you are comfortable controlling your e-bike. Wet weather reduces your braking power and the
grip of the tires. Reduce your speed and be aware of longer stopping distances when cycling in wet
conditions. Braking on unpaved surfaces will differ. Be sure to practice braking on different surface types.
Ensure that braking surfaces and brake pads are free of wax, grease and oil. Do not pedal and brake at the
same time as this will cause excessive wear.
1.5) Maintenance:
Make sure all screws, nuts, and bolts are tightened securely before riding. Failure to do so may result in
serious injury and/or death. Many parts on your e-bike are subject to a higher degree of wear due to their
function and depending on their use. Have your e-bike checked regularly at a professional bike shop and
have any worn parts replaced. Ensure the battery is removed from the bike before carrying out any
maintenance. You must always use genuine replacement parts when performing maintenance on your e-
bike. Regularly check the tire pressures (See sidewall of your tire for correct psi range) and regularly check
the tread depth of tires.
After an accident or crash you must take your e-bike to a bike repair specialist to make sure that it is safe
to ride. Be aware that damage may not be visible. Failure to do this may result in serious injury. Any form of
crack, scratches or change of coloring in highly stressed areas indicate that the life expectancy of the part
has been reached and it should be replaced immediately.
1.6) Additional Warnings:
Routine maintenance checks are required on your e-bike. Check all important connections, brake
functionality, and ensure axel nuts are secured before riding. Failure to do so may result in serious injury
and/or death. Do not ride your bike at night without working front lights and rear taillights. Failure to do so
may result in serious injury and/or death.
The e-bike is intended for use by those at least eighteen years of age. Use by anyone below the age of
eighteen is prohibited. Have installation/assembly checked by a professional bike mechanic or completed
entirely by a bike mechanic prior to riding. All bolts and nuts should be checked. Failure to do so could
result in serious injury and/or death. When operating your e-bike: Do not wear earplugs, headphones,
headsets, or use a cell phone while riding. Never hitch rides on other vehicles. Never hold an item which
interferes with your grip on the handlebars & never be under the influence of alcohol or drugs while riding.

is your obligation to check all applicable laws for bicycle rules governing: operation, equipment, use and
appropriate places for operation. Do not exceed local speed restrictions.
Maintain your brakes such that you can at least execute a one-braked-wheel skid on dry, level, clean
pavement. Never configure your e-bike such that the handlebars are higher than a rider's shoulders. In
addition to front and rear reflectors, you must also ensure that the e-bike is equipped with side reflectors.
Never ride your e-bike without the seat provided with the e-bike.
This e-bike is not meant for downhill riding or rocky trails. The e-bike is for paved or smooth surfaces only.
Do not ride your e-bike in unsafe weather conditions or when the road surface is comprised, with ice, snow,
water, sand, or anything else that could cause a loss of traction. Failure to follow this rule may result in
serious injury and/or death.
Keep your e-bike and packaging away from children. Lithium-Ion batteries can be extremely dangerous if
stored or used improperly. Please learn proper care of your battery at http://batteryuniversity.com/. Damage
to your lithium battery from misuse could result in serious injury, hazardous smoke and fires, and/or death.
Special precautions must be taken if you transport your e-bike with you during air travel, or if shipped by air

2. Installation Steps: Assembling Your Bike
2.1 Fork/Headset Assembly:
PLEASE COMPLETE STEPS IN ORDER.
§ Check cable and wire routing before inserting the fork steerer tube into the headtube. Compare
wire and cable routing to video/pictures in manual or on our website.
§ Make sure fork is not backwards, the brake caliper goes on the left.
§ Align steerer tube with the hole of the head tube, slowly slide it through. (Figure A) Be careful not
to lose the compression or split ring.
§ Push Compression ring down on the fork steerer tube (the compression ring is the only split ring).
The lip of the compression ring should fit in between the steerer tube and the upper headset
bearing, then slide on the headset spacers. (Figure B)
§ Check the routing of the cables again before installing stem with handlebars. You may need to flip
your handlebars for proper routing. Slowly slide the stem with attach handlebars onto the fork
steerer tube. (Figure C)

§ Tighten on the top cap with attached bolt using hex wrench. (Figure D)
o Pull the fork up so it is properly seated against the bearings and push the stem down to
increase pressure on the headset.
o Place the top cap on top of the stem and carefully tighten the compression bolt until you
feel some resistance when rotating the stem. (Do not over tighten or you will cause the star
nut in the fork steerer tube to come out).
o If properly assembled and tightened, the fork should turn smoothy, but should not shift up
and down relative to the headtube. It should not feel loose or shift front to back or side to
side. (Figure D)
o Once top cap is tightened, align stem and tighten pinch bolts. Please refer to the Detailed
Torque Specifications in section 2.6 below to ensure that the bolts are torqued to the
specified range (Figure E)
o Tighten the bar clamp of the stem using the 4 bolts to secure the handlebars. The gap of the
clamp should be the same at the top and bottom.
WARNING:
◆
IT’S VITAL TO TIGHTEN THE BAR CLAMP TO AVOID THE MOVEMENT OF THE
HANDLEBARS, AS WELL AS THE COMPRESSION CAP, ENSURING FORK IS INSTALLED CORRECTLY. THIS
SHOULD BE COMPLETED BY SOMEONE FAMILIAR WITH BIKE MECHANICS.
2.2 Front Wheel Assembly:
§ Do not touch the brake pads or brake rotors with your fingers. The oil will contaminate them and
cause noises when braking.

• Align the disc rotor so it fits between the brake pads. Do not force it. (Figure 4)
• Place the front wheel axle onto the fork dropouts. (Figure 5)
• Line up the disc rotor to make sure there is space on each side, so they don’t rub. Then make
sure the wheel is secure. (Figure 5)
• Tighten the nuts on each side. Make sure they are secure and that the wheel is fully seated in
the dropouts of the fork. Tighten the axle nuts to 35nm of torque.
WARNING ◆IT IS VITAL THAT THE AXLE NUTS HAVE BEEN TIGHTENED. IF THEY ARE NOT PROPERLY
ALIGNED, THE WHEEL MAY COME OFF, CAUSING SERIOUS INJURY AND/OR DEATH.
2.3 Seat Post Assembly:
• Open the seat clamp and insert the seat post to or past the minimum insertion point. (Figure 8 & 9)
• Adjust the suitable height and rotate the clamp to tighten and then shut it. (Figure 10)

2.4 Seat Clamp Assembly:
• Slide saddle into seat post clamp.
• Using a 6mm hex wrench. Tighten the bolt to 16-17nm of torque.
• The seat post angle is adjustable. Make sure the grooves are properly aligned. Ensure the bolt
is correctly torqued. If left loose or over-tightened, the seat post bolt could snap causing
serious injury and/or death.
NOTE:
◆
SOME GENERATIONS COME WITH THE SEAT POST SEPARATE FROM THE SADDLE. IF
ALREADY JOINED, CHECK THAT THE TORQUE ON THE BOLT IS TO 16-17 NM SPEC.
2.5 Pedal Assembly:
• Applying grease to the spindles of the bottom bracket will help ensure the crank arms fully seat and
do not make noise while you are riding.
• The left pedal (marked “L”) must be installed in the left crank arm. It is reverse thread, rotate
counterclockwise to install and tighten.
• Screw each pedal into a crank by hand. They should screw in easily to start. Do not force them.

For the most up to date documents, bike models, additional information, instructional videos,
And more visit us at Ride1UP.com

• The right pedal (marked “R”) must be installed in the right crank arm. It is standard thread, rotate
clockwise to install and tighten.
• Use an adjustable wrench to finish tightening the pedal in place.
• Slide chainring and crankarm over the spindle of the bottom bracket.
• Using an 8mm hex wrench, tighten the crank arm to 38nm of torque.
• Check the left side crank arm as well. It should be very tight, 38nm.
• Failure to properly tighten these may result in a loose crank arm that will become damaged over
time and require replacement.
NOTE:
◆
THERE ARE TWO PEDALS INCLUDED IN THE BOX WITH YOUR BIKE. THE PEDALS SCREW INTO
THE ENDS OF THE CRANKS WITHOUT EXTRA NUTS, SCREWS OR PINS. FAILURE TO USE THE CORRECT
PEDAL ON THE CORRECT SIDE WILL RESULT IN A STRIPPED CRANK ARM.
2.6 Detailed Torque Settings:
Saddle Clamp Bolt: 16-17nm (unless otherwise marked on seatpost)
Crank Arms: 39nm
Compression Cap (bolt): 4-5nm (unless otherwise marked, make sure steering is still free but fork is not
loose or wobbly)
Stem/Steerer Clamp: 8-9nm (unless otherwise marked on stem)
Handlebar Clamp: 8-9nm (unless otherwise marked on stem), tighten evenly in a cross pattern. The gap by
each screw should be the same if done properly.
2.7 Adjust Derailleur and Shifter:
Verify your shifter and derailleur are properly adjusted. When you first assemble your bike, your derailleur may need
to be tuned if you hear any noise while shifting or if it is not shifting smoothly. Or lastly, if the chain is shifting past
the largest or smallest cog.
Rear derailleurs have 3 adjustment screws (2 are the high and low limit screw), plus the barrel adjuster at the
derailleur and the barrel adjuster on the handlebars.
It is critical that the low and high limit screws are properly adjusted. If they are not, the chain may come of the largest
cog, into the spokes and cause permanent damage to your derailleur, derailleur hanger, motor cable, spokes, and rim.
The motor is so powerful that if this happens it can quickly destroy or damage the components mentioned.
Adjusting your derailleur properly will be done best by a mechanic, however it can be accomplished by following a
helpful video. Please check our support pages at www.Ride1UP.com for the latest tips and video on how to do this
properly.

For the most up to date documents, bike models, additional information, instructional videos,

It is normal to need to adjust your derailleur once again after logging some miles on the bike as things settle (spring
and cable tension involved in shifting).
2.8 Test and Adjust Front and Rear Brakes:
After Assembly, you must test your front and rear brake. You can then adjust them as needed. How you
install the front wheel and brake caliper can affect whether the disc brakes rub when first assembling. After
assembly, you may need to adjust the front and rear brake. Look in line with the brake pads and slowly
tighten the nuts of the axle while ensuring the rotor stays in the exact middle between the pads. The disc
rotor is one of the most exposed malleable components during shipping. If it is bent, it can sometimes be
trued (bent back) or replaced with a new disc rotor. If unsure how to properly adjust your brakes, please
check our website for a recommended video. If you are unable to access our website, you should take the
bike to your local bike shop for an assembly inspection and/or tune up. The bike shop will be able to inspect
the bike for safety and adjust your brakes.

Battery Basics & Care:
NOTE:Never charge your battery when it’s temperature or the space it is stored in is below freezing. Failure
to follow this rule could result in serious injury, death, and property damage.
The chargers do stop charging when the battery is fully charged. When charging your battery, do not charge
near any potentially flammable material. Charge in a safe fire-resistant space. If you are storing the e-bike
for more than a day, do not leave it plugged in. It is best to leave it charged to 80% but unplugged. The button
on the top of the battery works as a charge gauge. It is not an on-off button. When riding always plug the
charger port with the rubber cover. If moisture gets in, the battery can be destroyed. Everyone is encouraged
to learn a little bit more about the basics of lithium ion battery care and proper treatment. For extended life,
charge your battery to 80% and use it until it is at 20%. Depending on the charge level when plugged in, it
takes 3-6 hours for the battery to fully charge when using the standard charger supplied with the bike.
Charging for 1-2 hours will keep it near 80% depending on last usage. You can check the charge percentage
on the display. If storing for longer periods, it is a good idea to store your battery with a 40-80% charge.
Check the battery once a month. If the battery drops to 25% or lower, charge it up to 40-80%. Recommended
storage temperatures are 50°-77°F and will provide the best performance out of the battery. Storage should
be done in a dry area.
