We assume that as a Coboc e-bike user you have gathered enough basic
experience with ordinary bikes. If this is not the case, we recommend
practicing on a e-bike without motor support. Because of the strong acce-
leration and the increased maximum speed it is recommended for you to
be able to handle e-bikes very good.
Get used to your Coboc e-bike. The special driving characteristics for
Coboc e-bikes require for you to familiarize with it on different terrain.
Make sure that you got it under control before starting to use your Coboc
e-bike in public.
Operating the Coboc Electric Drive
Your Coboc e-bike has two operating modes:
“Bike off” / manual riding: You can always choose to ride your e-bike with-
out motor support. Motor support is turned off, if the ve LEDs on the top
tube are not lit up. You should keep motor support turned off, if storing or
not using your Coboc e-bike.
“Bike on” / riding with motor support: Pressing the power button turns on
motor support for your Coboc e-bike. Motor support is turned on, if the
ve LEDs on the top tube are lit up. In a turned on state LEDs indicate the
battery level and motor support goes up to maximum speeds of 25 km/h.
Turning off
To turn your e-bike back off, just press the power button again in “bike
on” mode. Your Coboc e-bike turns off automatically after staying unused
for more than three minutes.
Notes on using the brakes
Make sure to know which brake lever belongs to which brake before star-
ting your ride. As standard the right brake lever belongs to the rear wheel
brake and the left brake lever belongs to the front wheel brake.
Regularly check the friction components for wear.
Handling
It is important for you to also check the wear on your rim brake anks.
Also make sure to check for brake pad wear on the brake shoes (s. chapter
Maintenance & care).
If wear is too heavy on any of these components, this may lead to total
failure of the brake system. Hard falls and serious injury can be the result.
Use your brakes in a controlled and well-timed way. Too heavy
breaking may leave your wheels blocked and therefore lead to
loss of control. Hard falls and serious injury can be the result.
Hydraulic disc brakes
Avoid using the brakes permanently if riding downhill for longer periods
as this might cause steam bubble formation and therefore lead to loss of
control. Hard falls and serious injury can be the result. Always try to fully
release the brakes or to switch between front and rear wheel brakes. That
way the brake system can cool off. If necessary take a short break to cool
it off. Always check the braking point before your journey. If you are able
to pull the lever all the way back to the handlebar or of the braking point
changes while riding you may not continue riding. Let your Coboc dealer
either bleed your brake or x it, if needed.
Level of motor support
The level of motor support adapts to your driving behavior. The stronger
you tread the pedals, the more torque value is in the motor. This makes a
“level of support” choice unnecessary. However, you can apply a ne-tun-
ing of your Coboc Electric Drive on your phone via our Coboc App. Please
note, that you may not use the Coboc App while riding your e-bike (s.
chapter Coboc App).
Two different driving modes
Since rmware version 3.34 you are able to choose between two different
driving modes. You can either acces them via our Coboc App or by simply
operating the power button on your e-bike.
