Stem Adjustment
To adjust the handlebars to a customized height:
Loosen the bolt indicated by the arrow in Fig. 10. Access this bolt from underneath 1.
the handlebars.
Next, slightly loosen the bolts on either side. 2.
Once you have loosened all three bolts, move the stem to the desired height. 3.
Re-tighten the two side bolts rst, ensuring they are tightened very well. 4.
Finish by re-tightening the rst bolt located under the handlebars (the one indicated 5.
by the arrow in Fig. 10).
FIG 10. STEM CLAMP BOLT
FIG 11. TWO OPPOSING BOLTS
Depending on how much you moved the stem, you may want to rotate the 6.
handlebars themselves, especially if you need to correct the angle of the brake levers.
Just loosen the two bolts that clamp the handlebar, rotate it to the desired position,
and re-tighten the bolts. (This is described in the section, “Attach Handlebars” on
Page 34.)
Double-check all bolts to make sure they are tight.7.
Front Shock
Please consult the manual provided by the manufacturer.
Tire Inflation
The recommended ination range for the tires is indicated on the tire sidewall (50-75 psi).
Lower pressure will give a softer ride. A higher pressure will provide a rmer ride, but will
give the best range per charge.
Carry out this pre-ride checklist before EVERY RIDE!
Make sure the tires are properly inated. All bicycle tires gradually
lose air over time, and this can affect handling, range, and puncture-
resistance.
Are the “Quick Release” levers on the front wheel and seat tight?
Check both wheels for broken spokes. If you nd any, seek service
before riding the bike.
Are the handlebars tight? If there is any noticeable movement,
tighten properly before riding.
Visually inspect your tires for cuts, embedded glass, or other signs
of possible failure.
Make sure that the pedals are screwed in tightly, as damage is
possible if they come loose.
Are the brakes working properly? Squeeze the levers before riding
to ensure they apply the brakes, and then test them at a very low
speed. Turn on the pedal-assist and while riding at a very low speed,
make sure the motor turns off when either brake lever is squeezed.
