u Riding a Bosch drive system equipped bicycle
capable of speeds up to 20 mph requires profi-
ciency in the activity of road cycling. This prod-
uct can allow you to achieve speeds greater than
you may be used to achieving without the aid of mo-
tor assistance. It also may allow for riding longer
periods of time at a higher speed. Higher speed re-
sults in higher forces if a crash occurs. Control your
bicycle at all times. Your risk of death or serious in-
jury increases with both speed and age.
The following are required for safe use of this prod-
uct:
– Knowledge of the laws/safety guidelines/rules of
road cycling (riding safely)
– Ability to operate and control a standard road bike
– Experienced rider who is actively riding
– Capable, comfortable and confident riding safely at
speed up to 20 mph
– Your bike should match your riding style, be prop-
erly adapted to the dimensions of your body, and
be well maintained.
u Do not use this product under the influence of
drugs and/or alcohol.
WARNING
u While riding, do not become distracted by the
onboard computer and always remain alert to all
riding conditions. The on-board computer should
only be used in a stationary and safe start-up posi-
tion. Utilize the operating unit to change motor as-
sistance levels while riding.
u Check your bicycle manual for maximum riding
weight of your bicycle. Overloading your bicycle
can result in component failure which can result in
death or serious injury. Typically maximum riding
weight is defined by the sum of the rider’s weight
plus the weight of any luggage.
