This manual contains important information regarding safety, assembly, use, and
maintenance of the bicycle but is NOT intended to be a complete or comprehensive manual
covering all aspects concerning bicycle ownership.
We recommend consulting a bicycle specialist if you have any doubts or concerns
regarding your experience or ability to properly assemble and maintain the bicycle.
REMINDER
All persons assembling, using, and maintaining the bicycle must read and understand the
safety warnings and operating instructions in this manual before using the bicycle. It is
the responsibility of the user to ensure the bicycle is properly maintained and in proper

DISMOUNT THE BICYCLE MAY RESULT IN LOSS OF CONTROL
OF THE BICYCLE. IMPROPER SETUP OR MAINTENANCE OF THE
BICYCLE MAY RESULT IN AN UNEXPECTED MOVEMENT, LOSS OF
CONTROL, AND SERIOUS INJURY.

GENERAL SAFETY
Inspect the entire bicycle before riding - ensure that there are no loose parts, bolts or
screws. Test the brakes and check if the pressure in the front tires is equal. Check rear tire
pressure too.
If you have any doubts or questions, contact your local bike dealer.
By not following these safety precautions, you may risk injuring yourself or others.
GENERAL BIKE SAFETY PRACTICES
- Always follow the traffic laws in your country.
- Never ride while under the influence of alcohol, medication or drugs.
- If you suffer from any health conditions, please consult your doctor before riding.
- Never endanger yourself or others by reckless riding.
- The usage of bicycles or any accessories such as lamps, bells etc. is the user’s own
responsibility, and TRIOBIKE cannot be held responsible for any damage, accidents,
personal injury or fines caused by the usage of these products.
- Familiarize yourself with all the bicycle’s features before riding.
- Practice gear shifts, braking, and the use of the electric system.
- Always ride defensively in a predictable, straight line.
- Never ride against traffic.
- Expect the unexpected (e.g., opening car doors or cars backing out of concealed driveways).
- Take extra care at intersections and when preparing to pass other vehicles.
- Maintain a comfortable stopping distance from all other riders, vehicles and objects. Safe
braking distances and forces are subject to the prevailing weather conditions. Do not lock
up the brakes.
- When braking, always apply the rear brake first, then the front. The front brake is more
powerful and if it is not correctly applied, you may lose control and rise the rear wheel.
Always use the correct hand signals to indicate turning or stopping.
- Obey the traffic laws (e.g., stopping at a red light or stop sign, giving way to pedestrians).
- Wear proper riding attire, reflective if possible, and avoid open toeshoes.
- Do not use items that may restrict your hearing and vision.

WET WEATHER NIGHT RIDING
HILL TECHNIQUE
ROAD CONDITIONS
GENERAL SAFETY GENERAL SAFETY
- When riding in wet weather always use safety lights to enhance visibility.
- Exercise extreme caution when riding in wet conditions.
- Ride at a slower speed. Turn corners gradually and avoid sudden braking.
- Brake earlier, it will take a longer distance to stop.
- Pot holes and slippery surfaces such as line markings and train tracks all become more
hazardous when wet.
- This bike is for on-road use only. Do not use the bike off-road or on rough terrain.
- Be aware of road conditions. Concentrate on the path ahead.
- Avoid pot holes, gravel, wet road markings, oil, curbs, speed bumps, drain grates and
other obstacles.
- Cross train tracks at a 90 degrees angle or walk your bicycle across.
- Do not ride the bike at night without lights on, both front and rear.
- If using battery powered lights, make sure batteries are well charged.
- Wear reflective and light colored clothing.
- Ride at night only if necessary. Slow down and use familiar roads with street lighting.
- Gear down before a climb and continue gearing down as required to maintain pedaling
speed. You will then obtain more power from each pedal revolution.
- If you reach the lowest gear and are struggling, don’t stand up on your pedals, since you
may loose control of the bike.
- On the descent, use the high gears to avoid rapid pedaling.
- Do not exceed a comfortable speed; maintain control and take additional care. Don’t go
faster than 32 Km/h. If the bike is loaded, limit even further your speed.
- Braking will require additional distance. Initiate braking slowly and earlier than usual.
Please consider that a fully loaded bike can reach 240 Kg and this will heavily effect the
braking distance.

MAINTENANCE
GENERAL ADVISE
Please remember to have your first check & fine tune after 3 months. Hereafter we
recommend a complete service and fine tuning of your bike every year/2000 km. Please
consultant your local dealer or local shop.
For specific control point for each service contact your local bike shop - this bike must be
serviced only by trained and quilified bike mechanic.
Specific control points for each service: brakes, gears, battery status, spokes, bearings.
TIRES
It’s important to have correct air pressure on tires. It improves control and handling, and it
doesn’t stress tires. Correct pressure is 4.5 Bar (65 PSI).
BATTERIES
Batteries have to be charged every 4 weeks, also when the bike is parked and not in use.
For complete instructions please check the e-system manufacturer manual.
SPOKES
The users must check the tension and eventually tighten the spokes after 100 km. The
same operation has to be repeated every month/1000 km.
