Basic information
for use of an e-bike
IMPORTANT Always check functionality of brakes and baery charge status before every
ride. Always use a bicycle helmet while riding on an e-bike!
Riding your e-bike
Riding an e-bike is the same like riding a regular bicycle. You only need to sit on the bicycle, gain
some speed and pedal. Once the crankset is spun, the motor is automatically activated in from
that moment, it works according to the assistance mode selected. If you use brakes, the motor is
disabled automatically. This is not the case of LEVIT bicycles equipped with hydraulic disc brakes
as these brakes do not have all necessary sensors.
Motor on these models is switched o within two seconds aer you stop pedalling. Once you
reach the speed of 25km/h, the motor is disabled automatically, and will be reactivated only aer
the speed has dropped below this threshold. The motor is not engaged also if you do not pedal,
or if you spin the crankset in reverse direction.
IMPORTANT A long ride with low rotation rate of the motor and high level of assistance
may result in motor overheating and even damage, if the motor is under excess load. In such
cases, it is highly recommended that you decrease the assistance.
The bicycle function may be impacted by external electromagnetic elements (such as
radars etc.).
RECOMMENDATION If you encounter problems with shiing lower or higher gears, we
recommend additional installation of “Gear Sensor” that disables the motor shortly during
shiing. Therefore, the change of gears does not occur when the motor is fully engaged,
which is good not only for the actual motor, but for all drivetrain components.
