4.10 Pre-Ride Checklist
You must be able to adhere to all items in the pre-ride checklist below within 10 minutes prior to riding a Gocycle.
Unless you can answer yes to ALL of the questions in this section of the owner’s manual, do not attempt to operate
your Gocycle. The consequence of operating your Gocycle without first answering yes to ALL of the questions in
this section is serious injury or even death. Be safe and responsible and do not ride your Gocycle unless you can
answer yes to ALL of the questions in this section.
1. I have read this owner’s manual completely.
2. I understand this owner’s manual and the instructions contained in it, and I understand that serious injury
or even death may occur if I do not carry out the instructions in this owner’s manual with at least average
competence. When in doubt, I will seek clarification on the instructions and warnings from the
manufacturer.
3. The weight of my luggage, clothing and person is not more than 100kg (220lb) combined in total.
4. I have never been injured to the extent that I have received compensation for my injuries from a
manufacturer or retailer or designer of a bicycle component or a complete bicycle or electric powered two-
wheeled vehicle.
5. If you answered NO to question 4, you may be more prone to injury from riding a two-wheeled vehicle
than the average person or you may have an unsafe or abusive riding style that imparts higher than normal
stresses onto the bicycle that can cause premature and unexpected failure. DO NOT UNDER ANY
CIRCUMSTANCES RIDE THE GOCYCLE. SERIOUS INJURY OR EVEN DEATH MAY RESULT.
6. I understand that Gocycle is an electric powered bicycle and may require new and different skills to ride it
safely. (If you are unsure of the new and different skills required for safe riding of an electric powered
bicycle, you should not ride this product and should consult an electric bicycle specialist in order to gain the
necessary skills to ride this type of product.)
7. I have a valid automobile driving license in the country, state, or region in which I will operate the Gocycle.
8. I confirm that the Gocycle has not been involved in a collision of any kind or has been subject to abusive
riding such as being ridden into, up or off a curb.
9. I understand that riding a bicycle on paved streets in the presence of cars, trucks or motorcycles is
potentially life threatening, dangerous, and could result in serious injury or death.
10. I always ride wearing an approved helmet and eye protection.
11. I have fitted the Gocycle with approved front and rear reflectors for the country of operation, and if light is
poor, I have fitted the Gocycle with approved front and rear lights. I have checked that my clothing, such
as a jacket, does not cover the lights or reflectors while I am riding.
12. I have ridden a bicycle competently and safely within the last six months.
13. I have not sustained injuries that required professional medical attention as a result of riding a bicycle.
