Before every ride
During production, your bike was quality checked repeatedly. Regardless, be sure
to complete the following precautionary safety checks before every ride.
1. Check the handlebar
• Check the handlebar is at 90
degrees to the wheel.
• Check handlebar grips are properly
installed and are in good condition
(no cuts, tears or worn out areas).
• Check that the handlebar is properly
tightened so that it cannot twist or move.
2. Check the wheels
• Check that the thru-axles for both
front and rear wheel are properly
installed (threads aligned correctly)
and tightened to the correct torque.
• Are both tires in good condition and
are both tires suitable inflated? Check
for abnormal or increased tire wear.
Check tread indicators on your tires to
determine if tires should be replaced.
Note that the increased weight of
the eBike may necessitate slightly
higher than usual tire pressure.
• Spin the wheels to check if the rims are
true. Check for any tire sidewall damage
or spoke damage at the same time.
3. Check electrical parts
• Check that the electrical
connections are secure.
• Is the battery fully charged? Remember
to fully recharge the battery after each
long ride (e.g. where battery charge
level drops below 50%). Check charge
of the battery via the handlebar display
dashboard (battery indication level
detailed on the right of screen).
• Check that the handlebar display
does not show any error codes. Do
not ride your bike if an error code
displays on the handlebar display.
4. Test the brakes
• Test the brakes while standing by firmly
pulling the brake levers towards the
handlebar. A pressure point should
be reached after a short time. Ensure
that the lever does not touch the
handlebar. Check the hydraulic brake
lines for any visible signs of leaks.
5. Check drive train
• Check for chain wear and ensure
correct chain tension.
• Check that the chain has no kinks,
rust, broken pins, plates, or rollers.
