Pedals
Shifters
Chain
An electric bike, depending on its model, may be equipped with
various types of gear shifting systems. These can be internal or
external gear shifters. Adjusting the gears requires specialized
knowledge, and we recommend doing it at a bike service shop.
Depending on the frequency and intensity of use, the chain
may wear down and stretch. This may result in damage to the
sprockets or further wear down the chain itself. On the other
hand, tightening the chain too hard may cause it less durable and
increase the effort required to ride the bike.
In electric bikes with a mid-motor, the chain is under a heavier
load and so more susceptible to stretching than in hub-mounted
motors. Assessing the wear of the chain and related adjustments
should ideally be done by professional service.
The chain should be regularly cleaned of dirt (sand, mud, etc.)
and lubricated with special chain grease.
L/R marking
Pedals must stay correctly
fixed to the crankset. An
incorrect setup may damage
the threading of the pedals
and the crank.
The right pedal’s shaft has a right-
handed mounting thread and is
labelled with “R”. Left pedal’s shaft is
threaded left-handed and is labelled
“L” or marked with stripes.
