1. Getting started with BIKE+ all in one
1.1 Intended use
BIKE+ all in one is intended to be used exclusively with the bike which was sold with. Any
attempt to mount BIKE+ all in one on another bike will void warranty claims.
BIKE+ all in one is not permitted for competition and race use.
1.2 Initial operation
BIKE+ all in one can only be activated when the battery state of charge is sufcient. In
order to check the battery state of charge of your BIKE+ all in one please refer to 5.
1.3 Turning on the system
BIKE+ all in one turns on automatically when the rear wheel reaches a speed higher
than 5 km/h. Thus,to turn on BIKE+ all in one just start pedaling your bike as usual or spin
the wheel while you lift the bike, as explained in Figure 2 .

Figure 2: in order to turn on BIKE+ all in one, lift the bike (1), push the
pedal (2) such that the rear wheel reaches at least 5 km/h (3).

1.4 Turning off the system
BIKE+ all in one automatically turns off when no activities are detected within 2 minutes,
in order to reduce the idle battery use. In order to manually turn off BIKE+ all in one, lean
the bike vertically or horizontally, as explained in Figure 3
!
WHEN A SMARTPHONE IS CONNECTED: if the bike is leant,BIKE+ all in one will be de-ac-
tivated (for BIKE+ all in one activation see 2.1). In any case the system will stay active for
10 minutes.

2. Riding BIKE+ all in one
!
it is recommended to gather rst experience with BIKE+ all in one away from roads
with heavy trafc.
BIKE+ all in one is an advanced powertrain for e-bikes that helps you in reducing your ped-
aling effort.The system is compliant to the EU laws on Electric Pedal Assisted biCycle (EPAC).
2.1 BIKE+ all in one activation procedure (see Figure 4)
When BIKE+ all in one is turned on, the motor assistance is not yet activated for safety rea-
sons. In order to activate the motor assistance, you must perform all the following steps:
1. Ride the bike and reach 8 km/h
2. Pedal backwards per 3 revolutions continuously
!
The bike will slow down while performing the step 2, due to the regenerative braking
function (see 2.2).
2.1 Motor assistance
The motor assists the rider up to 25 km/h (depending on the selected power mode - see
5.5 on page 20) and with a maximum power of 250W just if you are pedaling. As soon
as you stop pedaling, the motor will stop pushing.
x3
> 8 km/h!
Figure 4: BIKE+ all in one activation procedure

The generated power depends on several factors including the bike speed,the pedaling
speed and the road slope, depending on the selected power mode.
The default power mode of BIKE+ all in one is the “turbo” mode. For instructions on how
to change the power mode please refer to 5.1 and 5.4.
2.2 Regenerative braking (KERS)
BIKE+ all in one features a regenerative braking function; this allows you to slow down
the bicycle using the electric motor as a generator recharging the batteries thanks to
the integrated Kinetic Energy Recuperation System (KERS).In order to activate the regen-
erative braking you need to pedal backwards. As soon as you stop pedaling, the motor
will stop braking.
!
CAUTION: Regenerative braking DOES NOT substitute safety mechanical brakes.Please
do NOT remove the mechanical brakes from your bike.
!
CAUTION: Regenerative braking WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE when your BIKE+ all in one is
fully charged.

2.3 Charging BIKE+ all in one (see Figure 6)
To charge BIKE+ all in one, simply remove the protection cap from the charging connec-
tor (I) and plug in the Zehus charger (2).Then connect the Zehus charger to a power
outlet (110~240 V).
The charging time is approximately 3 hours for a complete charge.While BIKE+ all in one
is charging the charger LED must turn RED. When BIKE+ all in one is completely charged,
the charger LED turns GREEN (3).
!
NOTE: when the charger gets disconnected from the bike, BIKE+ all in one will turn off.

2.4 Change gears or tires on BIKE+ all in one
Although BIKE+ all in one is intended to be used as a single speed hub, you can decide
to change the sprocket or the crankset. If you change one or more of these components
by yourself, BIKE+ all in one performance could be not optimal. Please contact our sup-
port using the bitride app, in order to update your bike rmware with your new gear set.
Whenever you change tire size (e.g. from 700x23c to 700x35c), please contact our sup-
port to update your bike rmware. Otherwise the displayed speed will not be correct.

2.5 Correct mounting of BIKE+ all in one on the bike
Since BIKE+ all in one has a slope sensor inside, it is important to insert it into the rear fork
with the right direction.The front of the hub is marked with a small pin drilled on the left
shaft. Locate the pin as explained in the next gures. If the hub is not mounted correctly
you will receive a warning when connecting with the app (see 5.7),
2.6 Careful handling of the bike
Please observe the operating storage temperature of BIKE+ all in one. Protect the
charging connector from impacts that can damage it. Components can be damaged
if exposed to extreme temperatures.
!
CAUTION: ALWAYS seal the connector on BIKE+ all in one with the proper protection
cap (5) before riding. Using BIKE+ all in one without the protection cap will void the war-
ranty.

5.2 Calibrate the slope sensor on your BIKE+ all in one
BIKE+ all in one features an advanced slope sensor that is very important to obtain the
correct and pleasant behavior while using some of the power modes (see 5.5).
!
NOTE: please check the calibration of the slope sensor carefully at the rst connection.
A wrong calibration could lead to a non-correct and unpleasant behavior of your bike.
In order to calibrate the slope sensor, please place your bike on a at surface (0% slope).
Then tap “slope calibration” and insert your PIN number. when prompted. This will start
the calibration procedure. Please refer to Figure 8 and Figure 9 for further information.

It is possible to switch between different power modes on the go by swiping up and down
the power mode information box in the dashboard screen (see Figure 7)
5.5 BIKE+ all in one power modes
Your BIKE+ all in one let you choose among different power modes. Each power mode
has a different assistance factor and a different pedaling range.
There are 7 available power modes: turbo, e-bike, range 1, range 2, range 3, BIKE+ and
OFF. Here you can nd a detailed description of BIKE+ all in one power modes:
o turbo (Figure 10): this power mode is a regular pedelec (or Electric Pedal Assisted
biCylce).The motor assists you up to 25 km/h and with a maximum power of 250
W, depending on the speed of the bike and on the effort on the pedals. With this
power mode you can cover up to 35 km*.
o e-bike (Figure 11): this power mode is a regular pedelec (or Electric Pedal Assisted
biCylce). The motor assistance is softer than the turbo mode and the maximum
power is slightly lower than 250W.
o range 1 (Figure 12): this power mode is Hybrid: BIKE+ helps you when you ride at
lower speed and during accelerations, while it recover energy while you are ped-
aling at higher constant speed. This power mode is sensitive to the road slope:
running uphill will lead the motor to assist up to 250W, while running downhill will
lead the motor to generate up to 500W automatically.This power mode allow your
range to increase up to 55 km*.
