IMPORTANT INFORMATION! PLEASE READ PRIOR TO RIDING.
FULLY CHARGE BATTERIES BEFORE FIRST USE - Batteries should be fully charged immediately when they are received and after each use for the
recommended charge times (see below).

Lithium-ion Batteries: 4-6 hours
FACTORS TO MAXIMIZE THE RANGE OF YOUR ELECTRIC BICYCLE
• RIDER INPUT - The more the rider pedals the further the distance traveled. Continuous riding, as opposed to frequent stopping
and starting, will yield the greatest range possible.
• ELEVATION GAIN - The flatter the road the further the distance traveled.
• WEATHER - Cold weather can adversely affect the battery capacity.
• TERRAIN - The smoother the terrain (roadways vs. gravel roads, etc.) the further the distance traveled.
• RIDER WEIGHT - The lighter the rider, resulting in less drain on the batteries, the further distance traveled.
• RIDER BICYCLE MAINTENANCE - A properly maintained bicycle will yield the greatest range possible.
• RIDER TIRE PRESSURE - Properly inflated tires have less rolling resistance and will be easier to pedal.
• BATTERIES - Properly charged and maintained batteries will yield the greatest range possible. Batteries stored in cold areas (below 50
degrees Fahrenheit/10 degrees Celsius) will show reduced range. Batteries that have not been kept in optimum condition will show
reduced range and run time.
