1. Safety Notes
1.1 Personal Safety:
It is the owner’s/rider’s responsibility to properly assemble the e-bike and inspect all components and ensure
all nuts and bolts are tightened for safety or to trust a qualified 3rd party to do so. This is critical for safety
on this e-bike.
Do not operate the bike until you have read and understand all sections of the entire manual. There are
important safety warning throughout the whole manual that must be followed to prevent dangerous
situations, accidents, and possibly injury and/or death.
This e-bike is only intended for use on paved roads or designated e-bike paths. Using the e-bike for any other
purpose may result in serious injury. Before you ride this e-bike, practice riding in a safe area free of hazard
and take time to learn the e-bike’s controls and power.
Be sure to understand and follow all local laws and regulations, and changes to the same.
Have maintenance/repairs done by a qualified bicycle mechanic.
Never use/ride any Ride1Up bike product in ways precluded by the manufacturer and the laws of your state
and local municipality. It is your responsibility to comply the laws in which you are operating the e-bike. Laws
vary depending on location in which you operate the bike. Failure to do so could cause death, serious
personal injury, property damage and/or a violation of the law.
Obey all rules of the road and local traffic laws. Respect motorists, pedestrians, and other cyclist.
At night, when visibility is low, 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

1.2 E-bike Safety:
You must be eighteen (18) years old or over to ride this e-bike. Your e-bike is designed for a maximum
permitted overall weight (rider + passenger + cargo) of 350 lbs. Do not exceed carrying capacity as this may
compromise the integrity of the bike and could cause death, serious personal injury, and/or property
damage. Your bike must be 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 as this may
damage the electrical and mechanical components of the e-bike and could cause death, serious personal
injury, and/or property. Be aware that the speed at which you are traveling may be faster than you are used
to, especially when accelerating.
Throttle should be gradually applied for a smooth acceleration. If you feel that the throttle, pedal assist, or
brake levers are abnormally functioning, such as jerky acceleration, brakes not stopping the bike etc. please
stop using your ebike immediately and contact our Customer Support Department or review our Support
Library for troubleshooting steps.
The rear rack on the RIFT has a maximum weight capacity of 150 lbs. Do not exceed the max weight capacity
as this may compromise the integrity of the bike and could cause death, serious personal injury and/or
property damage.
Whenever riding with a passenger, it is important to practice extra caution and not exceed speeds of
15 MPH and the maximum weight capacity for the rack of 150 lbs. Not following these limits could cause
death, serious personal injury, and/or property damage.
1.3 Electrical Safety:
Only use the charger supplied by Ride1UP and never tamper or modify the charger in any way. Do not
leave the e-bike or battery plugged into a wall outlet unattended. Unplug the battery before leaving the bike
alone. The charger has been designed for a specific voltage and should not be tampered with in any way.
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 e-bike or attempt to charge this product with another charger.
Before use, check the charger cord for signs of damage such as exposed wires or tears in the cable lining.
A damaged or entangled charger cord increases the risk of fire and electric shock. Keep the charger cord
at least 6ft away from hot surfaces and sharp edges. Do not handle the charger with wet hands as it could
cause death, serious personal injury, and/or property damage. Do not store or charge the e-bike outdoors.
The charger must be removed from the socket before removing the battery, cleaning or maintaining the e-
bike because this creates potential for electrical damage and/or injuries.

1.4 Brake Safety:
Regularly check your brakes for signs of wear and tear and functionality such as a reduction in
breaking power. Before every ride, quickly test your brakes by walking next to the e-bike and engaging the
brakes assuring they are properly working. Visibly check your brakes to ensure there is no damage such as
cracks and breaks. Failure to do so could cause death, serious personal injury, and/or property damage.
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 brakes.
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 could cause
death, serious personal injury, and/or property damage. Many parts on your e-bike are subject to a higher
degree of wear due to their function and depending on their use such as brakes, tires, pedals etc. Have your
e-bike checked regularly at a professional bike shop and have any worn parts replaced. Depending on the
level and extent of use, regularly can mean as much as once a week, and as little as twice a year. It is the
rider’s/owner’s responsibility to ensure the e-bike is safe to ride at all times.
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 so could cause death, serious personal
injury, property damage and/or a violation of the law.
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 axle nuts are secured before riding. Failure to do so could cause death, serious
personal injury, and/or property damage.

It is recommended to not ride at night when visibility conditions are low if avoidable. Riding is more
dangerous than riding during the day. Do not ride your bike at night without properly functioning front head
lights and rear taillights. Wear reflective and light-colored clothing. 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. Riders must have the physical condition, reaction time, and mental capacity to ride
safely and manage traffic, road conditions, sudden situations, and respect the laws governing electric bike
use where they are ride. If you have an impairment or disability such as a visual impairment, hearing
impairment, physical impairment, cognitive/language impairment, or a seizure disorder, consult your
physician before riding any bike.
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.
ALWAYS wear a helmet when riding your e-bike. Wear appropriate shoes, eye protection, and avoid
loose clothing. Wear reflective clothing and gear when visibility is diminished. Failure to do so may result in
serious injury and/or death.
1.6 Additional Warnings (Continued):
It 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 because this will
reduce the rider’s ability to steer and control the e-bike. 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, loose gravel or anything else that could cause a loss of traction. Failure to follow this rule
may result in serious injury and/or death.

It is recommended to not ride in wet weather. Wet weather impairs visibility, braking and traction of the ebike
and affects others sharing the road. Accidents increase in wet weather conditions.
Keep your e-bike and packaging materials such as plastics, foam, and cardboard 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. Do not ride if the battery pack is visibly
damaged.
Special precautions must be taken if you transport your e-bike with you during air travel, or if shipped by air
courier. Be sure to follow all requirements of airlines and air couriers regarding lithium batteries if you take
your e-bike with you during air travel, or if you ship your e-bike by air courier.
Always be aware of the traffic around you. Keep a lookout for obstacles in your path and in your
surroundings.
Never operate a bike while under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or any substance or condition that
could impair motor functions, judgement, or the ability to safely operate a bike.

3.7 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.
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).
3.8 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 quick release 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 be trued (bent
back) in most cases 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.

5. Charging the Battery:
WARNING
◆
DO NOT LEAVE CHARGING BATTERY UNATTENDED
The battery’s voltage is indicated by the display unit located on the handlebars. Your battery must be
charged in an ambient temperature, on a non-flammable & dry surface, away from any sources of heat,
humidity or flammable materials. Do not cover the battery while it is charging.
If you ever see a spark while charging your battery. Please inspect the charging port of the battery and
the tip of the charger. Please contact [email protected] and share pictures.
Follow the steps below when charging the battery:
Step 1. Turn the bike off. The LCD will be off.
Step 2. Plug the charger (which is off) into the socket and then insert the charger plug into the battery,
which is also off. Make sure the charger’s tip is not stressed or supporting the weight of the charger.
Do not wiggle the charger’s tip in the charging port of the battery.

Do not leave the battery unattended while plugged into the charger. Do not store the batteries connected
to the charger.
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.

All Ride1UP electric bikes come with a One-Year Limited Warranty from date of purchase. Defective items
or parts will be replaced and shipped to the holder of the warranty only. Warranties are not transferable to

The warranty covers product defects only that were already present at time of handover. It does not cover
normal wear and tear, product misuse, act of God, accident, commercial use, alterations, modifications,
improper assembly, water damage, extreme riding, installation of electrical or mechanical components that
have been modified, altered, or replaced with third-party parts, operator error and improper follow-up
maintenance. The warranty is only upheld if the user has followed all the rules in the owner’s manual.
Ride1UP reserves the right to make judgment determinations of proper use based on the evidence provided
and may require photos and/or videos of the items in question. Damages resulting from improper assembly
are not covered by the warranty. The components that are covered are: Frame, Fork, Saddle, Stem, Headset,

8.1 How to Handle Warranty Claims:
In the event the E-Bike is damaged during shipping, we will file a claim with the shipping company for major
damage and send a replacement part when necessary. Minor scratches to components don't necessitate
replacement or any refund, but for major aesthetic damage a credit may be issued, or replacement sent if
the item is severely damaged. We will not cover any damage caused when owner sets up their own shipping
option including using a freight forwarding or similar service.
Ride1Up will cover labor and parts involved in handling the guarantee within the 30-day period after
purchase. It is the owner’s responsibility to immediately inspect your bike on receipt, maximum within 3
days. Shipping claims are time sensitive. To quickly resolve the issue, the owner must send an email with a
photo and/or video if appropriate to [e-mail].
After the first 30-days Ride1UP will ship replacement parts of defective items within one year at no charge.
The owner will be responsible for labor. Warranty parts will be shipped within the U.S. only at our cost. It will
be necessary to send an email with a photo/and or as appropriate to suppor[email protected] so we can cover
the warranty.
Ride 1up reserves the right to make judgment determinations of proper use based on the evidence provided
and may require additional photos and or videos of the item or issue in question.
