GENERAL WARNING
All sport involves risk of injury or death. In choosing to ride a Stealth Bike, you accept that risk and take responsibility to
learn and practise safe and responsible riding.
This e-bike is sold with a limited warranty against defective workmanship. In some countries it does not conform to federal
motor vehicle safety standards and operation on public roads, streets or highways may be illegal. Before operating this
vehicle, first determine that its use is legal in that given area. It’s your responsibility to familiarise yourself with the laws of
the areas where you ride, and to comply with all applicable laws.
The bike is designed and constructed as an operator only model. The load limit and seating configuration do not safely
permit the carrying of passengers.
This Manual contains several “Warnings” and “Cautions” concerning the consequences of failure to maintain or inspect
your bike and of failure to follow safe riding practices.
In this manual, the WARNING sign indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious
injury.
Because it is impossible to anticipate every situation or condition which can occur while riding, this Manual makes no
representation about the safe use of the E-bikes under all conditions. By choosing to ride a Stealth Bike, you are assuming
the responsibility for the risks associated with riding. Proper use and maintenance will reduce risk of injury.

SAFE OPERATION
Even if you have ridden a bike for years, it is important you read this manual in full before you ride your new bike. Make
sure that you fully understand each section and refer to your dealer if you have any questions.
BATTERY CARE
1. Charge after every use.
2. Exercise caution when removing the battery pack. Always ensure that hands are dry and never insert any object
into the ends of the battery connectors.
3. Do not drop, or throw the battery and avoid puncturing or subjecting the battery to excessive shock loads when not
inside the bike.
4. Do not subject the battery pack to temperatures above 45˚C or below -5˚C.
5. Never leave the battery unoccupied whilst charging.
6. Always disconnect charger when the battery is fully charged.
7. Do not leave the charger connected and switched on for prolonged periods. i.e. days at a time.
BEFORE RIDING YOUR BIKE
1. Always wear an approved helmet when riding and follow the helmet manufacturer’s instructions for fit, use and
care. Stealth Electric Bikes strongly recommend the use of a motorcycle helmet due to the extreme speeds which
can be reached on our bikes. Always wear sturdy footwear which grips to the pedals. Ensure shoe laces and other
loose clothing is safely secured.
2. Obey the local laws. E-bike laws can vary from country to country and from state to state. Please make sure that
you understand the laws regarding the use of electric vehicles in and around your local area.
3. Make sure tyres are properly inflated according to manufacturers’ standards. See page 12
4. Riding with an improperly secured wheel can result in wheel wobble or disconnection to the bike, which can cause
serious injury or death. Therefore, it is essential that you check the wheel fasteners prior to every ride.
5. Not all accessories are compatible with your Stealth Bike. The unique engineering on your e-bike means that only
specially designed and approved accessories should be used. An improperly modified frame, fork, or component
can cause you to lose control. Changing or modifying components without the assistance of a dealer is undertaken
at your own risk.

WHILST RIDING YOUR BIKE
Even though your Stealth Bike has been constructed using the highest quality materials, if you exceed the limit of strength
of your bike or a given part, it may fail. After any high force load, thoroughly inspect all the parts of your bike. High force
loads include crashes, but you don't necessarily have to crash to put a high force load on your bike.
1. Do not ride beyond your limits or the design limits of the bike. If you are unsure of the limits of the bike, consult
your dealer.
2. Avoid improper braking by understanding and practicing proper application of your brakes.
3. Do not ride while intoxicated or while using medications which might affect your ability to ride.
4. Never ride barefoot or in sandals. It is also important to consider the use of gloves, eye protection and body armour
during operation.
5. Do not ride with loose objects attached to the handlebar or any other part of the bike.
6. Do not carry passengers.
7. Never ride your bike whilst holding onto another vehicle.
OFF ROAD RIDING
1. Ride only on designated trails. Avoid large rocks, branches, or depressions. When approaching a descent, reduce
speed, keep your weight back and low, and use the rear brake more than the front.
2. Always respect private property and remember you may be sharing the trail with others. Respect their rights. These
bikes allow you to access many places that are not usually accessible by conventional modes of transport. The high
torque and smooth power delivery helps to minimise the footprint left on loose and slippery surfaces. In some
instances however, there is the potential for the tyres to break traction or slide. Please help to preserve
environmentally fragile areas and help to keep trails open for future use by riding sensibly and avoiding
unnecessary brake slides and wheel spin where possible.

STEALTH BIKE CARE
Stealth Electric Bikes can be ridden in a multitude of environments and weather conditions. While these bikes are water
resistant, care must be taken in exceptionally wet conditions and the bikes must never be submerged in water in any way.
Rain or snow may cause the metal on your e-bike to corrode and also affect the electrical system.
CLEANING
High pressure washers should not be used for cleaning. While the bikes are very well sealed, water ingress may occur as a
result of high pressure water being forced past seals and into electronic components. The preferred method for cleaning is
with a sponge and warm soapy water.
STORAGE
If the bike is going to be stored for periods of more than 3 weeks, it is preferred that the battery is disconnected from the
bike. During prolonged periods of inactivity, the battery should be connected to the charger for 1 hour every month in
order to prolong the life of the battery.
Before storage spray CRC 5.56 into
the motor through the breather
hole (shown on left). Very carefully
lay the bike on its side and rotate
the wheel spraying the CRC into
the motor for two full revolutions.
Once complete, spin the wheel by
hand 10-15 rotations.
Do not expose your bike to extreme highs or lows of temperature. Ideally the bike should be stored at temperatures
between 10˚C and 40˚C.
Avoid storing the bike in wet or damp areas or areas that are prone to extended periods of direct sunlight.
If you have to ship your bike, make sure it is properly packed and protected to avoid damage.
TRANSPORTATION
WARNING: Excessive water exposure will void your warranty. This is an electric bike and all care should be taken to
avoid excessive water exposure.
WARNING: Riding your Stealth Bike in sand will void your warranty. Due to the demands of deep sand on the power
train of the bike, we advise that this bike should not to be ridden in sand.

Due to the weight and unique style of your Stealth Bike, only an approved Stealth Electric Bike rack should be used to
transport your bike. Bikes should be properly secured in an upright position to prevent damage to the controls and cranks
during transport.
