Operation
6.15 Gear shift
The selection of the appropriate gear is a 
prerequisite for a physically comfortable ride and 
making sure that the electric drive system 
functions properly. The ideal pedalling frequency 
is between 70 and 80 revolutions per minute.
 Stop pedalling briefly when changing gears. 
This makes it easier to switch gears and 
reduces wear on the drivetrain.
