bicycle to anyone who is unfamiliar with it. The bicycle can
legally only be used on the road by a person aged 14 years or
over.
2. If you are in a country where wearing a cycle helmet is not
compulsory, we still strongly advise you to always wear one.
If you are unfamiliar with cycling, we also advise you to attend
your local SmartMotion dealer.Your e-bike is not a toy and
should be considered a serious mode of transport.
3. As with all bicycles it is important that you stay within safe
limits. If you feel you are traveling too quickly for the road
conditions you probably are, so slow down! High speed will
increase forces in the case of an accident and increase the
possibility of injury.
4.Test your brakes prior to using the bike every time you use
it and remember the bike will not stop as quickly in wet or icy
conditions as it would on a dry road.
5. Check the tyres, rims, pedals, stem, cables, chain, etc for
general condition regularly.
at dusk, at night, or at other times of poor visibility. If you must
ride under these conditions, check and be sure you comply
with all local laws about night riding; follow the rules of the
road.Take the following additional precautions: make sure that
your bicycle is equipped with correctly positioned and securely

10. Your bicycle must be returned to your servicing dealer
or bicycle/motorcycle mechanic after six weeks or 200km
of riding (which ever comes rst) to re-tension the spokes.
Then every six months or 1000km (which ever comes rst)
for a general service and thorough inspection. Failure to do
this can void your warranty due to unnecessary wear.

child is no heavier than the listed maximum carrying capacity
of the child seat product. Before use, ensure that the child is
securely fastened.

3. Safe Riding Recommendations
Sonic user manual.indd 9 9/4/2017 3:50:56 PM
Pre-ride Checklist
Please make sure the brake lever sequence is
correct for your country before riding. In UK, NZ
and Australia the left brake lever is for rear brake
and the right brake is for the front brake. In all
other countries it is the other way: left for front,
right for rear.
Check the tyres for any visible damage.
Check tyre pressures are 40-60psi(275-410KPA),
and adjust ifnecessary.
Check brake functions, cable tension, pad
clearance, etc.
Check all electronic functions are ok (functions
detailed later in this manual).
working (detailed later in manual).
Torque Settings
Check bolts are tightened according to the following
a. Brake Disc bolts 6-8N.M
b. Seat angle clamp bolt/s Refer to markings
c. Crank bolts 45N.M
d. Gear shifter bolts 4N.M
e. Rear carrier bolts 8N.M
f. Mudguard bracket nuts/bolts 8N.M
g. Quick release axles. Measured torque not typically
used. Common industry practice is resistance at
lever half way through swing from open to fully
closed.
For all other nuts/bolts, the torque depends on the
thread diameter: M4 2.5-4.0N.M
M5 4.0-8.0N.M
M6 6.0-9.0N.M
Rear wheel axle 10-12N.M

4. Maintenance & Adjustment

is in line with the outer line of the smallest sprocket
when looking from the rear.Turn the crank arm to
set the derailleur to the low position.
2. Bike setup
It is important to set up your bicycle up for both
safety and comfort, failure to do say may result in
fatigue or injury.
Set the seat height:
• Sit on the saddle
• crank in the lowest position)
• Adjust the seat height so your leg is fully straight.
• Once height is set, move your foot so the pedal
is under the ball of your foot, check that your leg
has a slight bend at the knee.
Important! Do not extend the seatpost past the
Minimum insertion mark. Doing so may result in
frame/post failure. Serious injury may be caused.
If in doubt contact your local Samartmotion retailer
for advice.
Tyre pressure:
Check tyre pressure before every ride. Ensure
pressure is kept between the limits found printed on
the side wall of the tyre.

Once a month lubricate all pivot points on your
derailleur and the derailleur pulleys with suitable
chain lube.
Every three months lubricate the brake lever pivots,
gears and chain with suitable oil.

power. Like a car, it is important to regularly
(recommended yearly or if brakes feel soft and
spongy) bleed brakes to remove air bubbles from
the system.
For adjustment and bleeding of hydraulic disc
brakes, see brake manufacturers instructions.
Brakes should be rm and privide good stopping
5. Fork & Rear Shock Adjustment
Your Hypersonic is equipped with a rear shock and
fork which works by both air and coil resistance. For
proper setup, you must use a shock pump (not
included) to tune the fork and rear shock to the
correct pressures and settings for your prole and
riding requirements. This is best done by your
Smartmotion dealer.
5.1 Fork
To adjust the fork pressure, remove the air valve
cap found on the left side of the fork crown.
Connect the shock pump and inate to desired
pressure. The correct pressure can be found by
applying your bodyweight to the handlebars
(without bouncing) so that the fork sags. The
O-ring marker displays the maximum sag, so
adjust the fork pressure until the O-ring sags
around 40mm (30%). You can adjust the
compression by turning the black lever on the
right side of the crown, and the rebound by
turning the red knob underneath the fork.
5.2 Rear Shock
To adjust the shock pressure, connect the shock
pump to the shock and inate to the desired
pressure. The correct pressure can be found by
sitting on the saddle, where the shock should
sag 30% as indicated by the O-ring marker.
Adjust the shock pressure until approx. 30% sag
is indicated. Adjust the compression by turning
the blue lever, and the rebound by turning the
red knob.

to last well… keep it stored somewhere secure and
away from the weather elements.
Don’t treat your ebike as a dirt-bike!The motor and
battery are weather proof, but not water-tight. It is
ok in rain, but not to ford streams, etc!
Never take your ebike on the beach as salt water
and sand will drastically shorten the lifespan of
many of the ebike’s components (motor, gears,
wiring connections, etc).
Note: Your warranty is void if evidence of salt, sand,
or water damage are present within the components.
Important: If you live very close to the sea, you
should keep your bike indoors when not in use.
This will ensure the longevity of your ebike and its
subcomponents and will help streamline maintenance
Don’t power up the throttle while the eBike is held
stationary. Motor operation for more than a few
seconds while the wheel is locked/stationary can
damage the motor and controller.
Important: Your bike will arrive with the battery
partially charged.You should connect the battery
to it’s charger before using for the rst time. It’s
also best to fully use all of the battery capacity
for it’s rst use. However “top-up” charging the
battery between these intervals is ok.
Note: The Voltage Meter displayed on the LCD may
represent lower values when the motor unit is under
load(on hills, etc), this is normal. Battery capacity
readings are most accurate when the bike is idle and
not under load or use.
