The  is very quiet due to its electric
motors and will not rev when it is turned
to Drive or when the throttle is turned.
4.2 Steering Security Lock
The  has a steering lock on the head tube, which
will fix the steering angle of the parked bike. This
makes the  dicult to wheel away as it will only
turn in circles.
The steering lock is located on the right side of the
steering tube just below the handlebars.
Use the securing key to activate/deactivate the
steering lock:
A. B.
It is important to ensure the steering
lock is disengaged and the securing key is
removed before starting the .
A. Turn the handlebars counter-clockwise (to the
le)until the lock body lines up with the securing
ring on the head tube.
B. Put the securing key in and turn clockwise to lock.
C. Unlock the steering by turning the key counter-
clockwise; use the steering as per normal.
The same key can be used to lock the battery in place.
4. YOUR KEYS
The  comes with two types of keys: a key fob and
a securing key. The key fob is used to turn the bike on
or o, while the securing key activates the steering
lock and the battery lock.

5. HANDLEBAR CONTROLS
5.1 Control Switch
On the le side of the handlebar you will find a
control switch with buttons for the headlight,
indicators, & horn.
The headlight and tail lights automatically come on
when the  is in Drive. To turn o the headlight,
either switch to Neutral using the key fob or kill
switch, open settings in the UBCO Rider's App and
turn lights o, or hold the low beam switch until it
turns o (repeat to turn back on).
Holding the high beam switch will activate the
headlight in Neutral for when temporary lighting is
required while the throttle is inactive. Do not use the
high beam against oncoming trac.
5.2 Kill Switch
On the right side of the handlebar, next to the
throttle, is the kill switch for the motors. When the
kill switch is activated, the bike will change to Neutral
and N shows on the LCD display.
To switch into Drive, retract the kickstand and press
the kill switch to deactivate it.
5.3 Security Mode
Security Mode determines whether the key fob is
required to turn the bike on.
Security Mode ON: The key fob is required to turn the
bike on.
Security Mode OFF: Enables the bike to be powered
without the key fob; the bike is turned on using the
kill switch.
To turn security mode on or o, follow the steps
below. (Note, this process can only be performed
using a fob that is already paired to the bike.)
1. Turn off the bike. Press and hold both the key fob
button and the kill switch for  seconds.
2. The bike will beep a few times while the buttons
are held and then give one final long beep to
indicate programming is complete.
5.4 Phone Mount
The bike comes fitted with a Peak Design phone
mount featuring vibration isolation to protect your
phone and magnetic locking technology to enable
one-handed phone attachment and removal.
Simply attach the Universal Adapter to your phone
case following the instructions provided or use a
compatible Peak Design phone case. Then, to attach
your phone, simply hold the back of your phone over
the mount and it will click into place. Press one of the
tabs on either side to release your phone.

 
5.5 Throttle
To accelerate, twist the throttle towards you. There
are no gears or clutch, so the throttle controls all
acceleration from start to top speed (excluding
gravity). To maintain a constant speed, hold the
throttle in a constant position. If you let go of the
throttle, the  will start to decelerate.
Note: Do not continuously power the throttle when
the  is held stationary.

5.6 Brakes
Bedding in the brakes: For optimum brake
performance with new bikes or brake pads, we
recommend performing a series of  sequential
firm braking eorts from kph / mph to kph /
mph in a controlled environment. This will ensure
that the brake pad material is suciently deposited
onto the rotor, improving the total braking force
available, as well as resistance to overheating.
Regenerative braking system: To slow down, release
the throttle to neutral position and then apply the
brakes: le = rear, right = front. The UBCO drive
system incorporates a progressive regenerative
braking system, where the motors themselves apply
controlled braking prior to the mechanical brakes
taking eect in two discrete steps.
• Step  is a gentle "engine braking" eect when the
throttle is released.
• Step  kicks in when the brake levers are initially
pressed, just prior to the mechanical brake pads,
adding more motor braking when the brake levers
are engaged fully.
This system not only saves brake pad wear, but also
transfers energy back into the bike's battery, to
maximize range. It’s a win-win! The magnitude of
regen braking is adjustable in the UBCO Rider's App
to suit the rider’s preferences and use case.
Tip: The brake lever angle can be adjusted using
the screws on the brake lever mount. Ensure they're
retightened to Nm torque setting.

6.1 Warning Light
If there is a system issue, the warning light will flash
and an alert code will be displayed in the odometer
area. Find more information in the UBCO App or
contact your local UBCO support line.
Some basic alert codes are provided on page .
6.2 Charge Level
Accurate state of charge (SOC)is displayed on
the le side of the display, split into  segments.
The charge level is split up into  segments with a
halfway indicator. The charge required indicator will
light up when battery SOC is getting low.
6.3 Power Output Meter
This displays the real-time power output to the
motors. Any bars shown above the  mark represent
power output to the motors and any bars shown
under the  mark represent power input to the
battery through regenerative braking.
6.4 Odometer and Trip Meter
To select between odometer (ODO)and trip meter
(TRIP)view, press the le button. To reset the trip
meter, press the le button for  seconds while TRIP
is showing.
6.5 Switch from Metric to Imperial
To select between metric and imperial units for
the speed, odometer, and trip meter, while ODO is
showing, hold down the le button for  seconds. To
change between Celsius and Fahrenheit, press the
right button.
6.6 To Change the Clock
1. Hold down the right button until the time
numbers start flashing.
2. Press the right button to change between hours
and minutes.
3. Press the left button to cycle through numbers.
4. Hold the right button until the numbers stop
flashing to set the time.
7. ADJUSTABLE SUSPENSION
The front and rear suspensions have adjustable
rebound controls that change the rate at which the
suspension re-extends aer an impact. They also
feature spring preload adjustment that are helpful
for setting the loaded ride height of the vehicle and
help determine the suspension's ability to prevent
bottoming out (AKA setting the Sag).
These adjustments allow the rider to set the loaded
ride height for various use cases and terrains to
improve the handling and capability of the vehicle.
For more demanding terrain, or higher load carrying
capacity, we recommend increasing the preload to
prevent harsh bottom out forces. See page  for
recommendations for various riding situations.
7.1 Front:
Rebound speed is adjusted on the right-hand side of
the fork crown. Twist the dial clockwise to slow the
rebound; counter-clockwise to speed it up. On the
le side of the fork, the spring preload is adjusted.
Twist the dial clockwise to increase the spring force;
counter-clockwise will lessen the spring force.
