Helmets
• Always wear a helmet. Wearing a helmet properly may reduce
the risk of a severe head injury. When riding, always wear a
helmet that meets or exceeds the standards of the Consumer
Product Safety Commission (CPSC). Check the manual that
comes with your helmet.
• Ensure your helmet fits your head and is properly secured. If
you attach a child’s seat to the bicycle, the child must wear a
properly fitted helmet at all times.
• Read your helmet manual to make sure it is adjusted
properly according to the fitting instructions provided by the
helmet
manufacturer.
• A proper-fitting helmet should be comfortable and should
neither rock forward/backward nor side to side.
Follow eBike Regulations On and Off the Road
• Be aware of eBike regulations in your area. Generally
, the
regulations for the use of an electric bicycle are the same
as those for a standard bicycle. However, there may be local
differences such as where you can ride, minimum rider age, or
required equipment and license and registration regulations. It
is your responsibility to know the local regulations that apply to
an electric bicycle and to obey them.
Ride at Your Own Risk and Use Common Sense
• Always keep both hands on the handlebar grips and the
brake levers so they are within reach while riding.
• Do not ride distracted. Always remain alert to all riding
conditions. Using the Display or other technology (including your
mobile phone or music player) could distract you from riding.
Only adjust the Display when stationary and in a safe start-up
position.
• Never use headphones or a cellphone to talk or text when riding.
• Always ride defensively. Watch out for potential obstacles that
could force you to swerve suddenly or lose control. Braking
while steering may reduce your ability to control your bicycle.
