3.7.2 Brake system – details
All bicycles are equipped with a hydraulic brake system and have a 180mm brake disc on front and rear hub. The
EU-bicycles with Type Approval have built-in electric brake switches at both left and right hand brake levers that
activate the brake light.
3.8 Fenders
3.8.1 Front fender attachment
The front fender is directly mounted to the fork. On the top, the fender is mounted to the fork crown, with a thin
spacer between fender and fork crown. The other side of the fender is secured to the fork with a specially designed
fender stay. The front fender has a fender end piece at both ends.

15
3.8.2 Rear fender attachment
The rear fender is directly mounted to the frame at the seat stay bridge and at the chain stay bridge (near motor
mount), with a spacer between fender and frame. At the rear it is connected to the dropouts by the rear rack. The
default spacers are 10mm thick at the motor mount and 5mm thick at the seat stay bridge (with the drop-outs in
the middle position). The spacer applied at the lower position may vary in thickness (or even be left out), as the
fender will move with the adjustment of the dropouts. Consequently, depending on the position of the drop-outs,
the distance between frame and fender can change as well. The rear fender is an integrated part of the rear rack
mounting, it acts as a rack stay. The rear fender has a fender end piece at the rear and has a channel for the electric
wiring to the rear light(s).
Note.
Rear fenders are drilled size-specific; the location of the holes varies per frame size.

3.9 Rear rack
3.9.1 Rack – design and application
The rear rack is designed to carry a pannier on both sides. The rack has a stop at each side to prevent the panniers
sliding back and forth.
The rack is designed to support the fender – it is an integrated part, together with the drop-outs, of the rear part of
the bicycle.

3.9.2 Rack – maximum allowed load
The maximum allowed load on the rack is 7,5kg / 16,5lb per side; in total 15kg / 33lb.
3.10 Cable routing
3.10.1 Routing of the front brake cable at the fork
At the fork, a brake cable is led to the front brake caliper. It is secured to the fork with one (or two; depending on
the bicycles’ configuration) fasteners to prevent damage to the brake cable and paint of the fork.

17
3.10.2 Routing of the rear brake and shifter cables
All cables to the back of the bicycle run through the frame. On each side of the down tube, the brake, shifter and
electrical cables enter the frame via an opening in the frame. From there, the cables run via the battery bay to the
back of the frame.
In the battery bay, the cables are secured to both sides of the battery rail spacers with help of tie-wraps.
The brake cable is led through the left hand chain stay to the rear brake caliper.
The shifter cable(s) run along the drive unit and chain stay to the derailleur or IGH. These cables are firmly secured
to the drive unit and chain stay with specially designed clips.
There are two types of clips available; one to secure the single cable of a derailleur drive system, the other to secure
the twin cables of the IGH.
3.10.3 Routing of electrical wiring to the front of the bicycle
The electric wiring to the front of the bicycle consists of wiring to power the front light and to the brake switches
(if applicable, depending on configuration). The wires enter the frame via an opening in the frame and run via the
battery bay to the drive unit, along the cables of rear brake and shifter.
All cables running through the battery bay are secured to the battery rail spacers with tie-wraps, on both sides. The
electrical connections at the drive unit are protected by a specially designed cover that fits between drive unit and
frame.
3.10.4 Routing of electrical wiring to the rear of the bicycle
The electric wiring to the rear of the bicycle consists of wiring to the rear light and, if applicable, the brake light and
license plate lighting. Also the cable from the speed sensor is part of the rear wiring.
The wire for the lighting is led through the rear fender. The fender has a built-in channel to hide and protect the
wiring. Four clips secure the wire in the channel (ensure to fit the flat side of the clip pointing to the wiring cable).
At the front end, the wiring enters the motor cover, and is routed to the electrical connection at the drive unit.
The speed sensor cable runs through the non-drive side stay, via an opening in the stay, to the speed sensor. The
opening is covered with a specially designed frame plug. The connector of the speed sensor is connected to the
drive unit.
