The Brakes
Front Brakes
The brakes on your e-bike are drum-brakes, like those found on gas scooters and
motorcycles. They generally provide for very ne stopping and control. This is a very tested
and well-designed technology, but even so, the brakes will require servicing from me to
me, and may have to be adjusted for tension.
Unlike normal fric on-grip bicycle brakes, which clamp down from the outside, the drum
brakes clamp from the inside. When the brakes are ac vated, tension increases and the
clamps engage. This is a very e ec ve and reliable way to stop a vehicle.
The brakes are contained within a sealed unit, and are very nely adjusted and ed.
Rear Brakes
The rear brakes on your e-bike are EABS Brakes (Electric Absorp on Braking System).
These provide a good fric on-grip when they are ac vated. They signi cantly less than
standard drum brakes. Using these brakes helps to reduce the weight of the e-bike and
improve its performance.
The Chain and Pedals
The pedals are connected to the rear wheel. Along with the chain, they provide a human-
powered “drive train”. This is an important part of your e-bike. The pedals are not
removable and should not be removed.
