quick release fasteners and quick release axles
are provided in Chapter 11.1.
When you are driving with clipless/step-in pedals:
Functional testing is required. The pedals should
release easily and smoothly.
Check the tyre pressure. The manufacturer guide
-
lines which may not be exceeded or undercut are
printed on the side of the tyres.
It is also necessary for you to check the following
components of your e-bike:
• Please check that the battery is secure.
• Check the charging state of the battery to ensure
that the charge is sufcient for the drive planned.
• Familiarise yourself with the functions of the
operating element.
Familiarize yourself with your
new FLYER e-bike’s riding and handling
performance by testing its features out in
a safe and quiet area.
Only use a FLYER with a frame size that
suits you. Ensure that your legs have
enough room to manoeuvre. You must be
able to dismount quickly without touching
the frame. Insufcient clearance or room
to manoeuvre may lead to severe injuries.
Please note that while preparing to mount
your FLYER that it will immediately start
moving as soon as you put your foot onto
the pedal when the support mode is
switched on. Do not place your foot on the
pedal when mounting. Hold the brake, as
the unfamiliar thrust may otherwise lead
to falls or other accidents. Stand to one
side of the FLYER and lift your leg over
the e-bike. Firmly hold the handle bars
with both hands, as you would do with a
bicycle. Always remember to fold in the
prop stand before riding off.
30 - 80 PSI (2.5-5.5 BAR)
Example of tyre pressure information
Modern brakes have a substantially
higher braking performance than con
-
ventional brakes. Carefully practise us-
ing your brakes.
Note that when riding in wet conditions
and on slippery roads, your bike’s brak
-
ing power, particularly the rim brakes,
can be severely weakened. Expect a
longer braking distance if you are rid
-
ing in wet conditions. Look ahead while
riding and familiarise yourself with the
brakes' response time.
If your pedals are produced with a rub-
ber or plastic coating, rst carefully fa-
miliarise yourself with the grip of the
pedals. The pedals may be very slippery
under wet conditions. Use safe terrain
without trafc to familiarise yourself with
system pedals or clipless pedals.
Please note that the weight distribution
of the e-bike is signicantly different
from that of a bicycle without electrical
drive. The weight of an e-bike makes
parking, lifting, carrying or pushing up-
hill more difcult.
Take note that your FLYER must be
equipped according to the legal require
-
ments if it is to be used in public road trafc.
Check with your insurance whether your
vehicle and possible risks of handling lith
-
ium/ion batteries are sufciently covered.
