4.0 Understanding your A2B
4.1 A2B Overview
Having read this section, if you are still unsu-
re, please ask an A2B dealer to explain any
functions or features that you do not under-
stand before your rst ride.
The A2B has a ’true pedal assist’ function, this
means the motor engages only when the rider is
pedalling. So you can get places under your own
steam yet have the comfort of the electric motor
giving you that extra boost along the way.
4.2 Starting and stopping
1. Select a quiet area away from cars, other cyc-
lists, obstacles or other hazards.
2. Make sure that the battery is fully recharged.
3. Power ON the electronic system by turning
the battery power on.
4. Raise the kickstand into the riding position.
DO NOT sit on the A2B while it is supported by
the kickstand, you will damage the kickstand
and, possibly the frame.
5. Mount your A2B and get comfortable.
6. Apply motor power by pedalling the A2B .
7. Test the brakes at slow speed. The right
brake lever actuates the rear brake and the
left brake lever actuates the front brake. Ap-
plying brakes too hard can lock up a wheel,
which could cause you to lose control and fall.
8. Check out the handling and response of your
A2B . Familiarise yourself with how the suspen-
sion responds to application of the brakes and
shifts in rider weight.
Remember that there are power cut-off swit-
ches embedded into the brake levers. When
you apply the brakes, power to the motor will
turn OFF. Therefore, do not hold the brake levers
when you want the motor to run.
