Carbon Fiber Composite
Some models have carbon ber
components. Pound for pound,
carbon ber is stronger than steel or
aluminum. But it behaves dierently
when it is overloaded in an accident
or impact. An overloaded metal part
will bend or deform before it breaks,
showing evidence of the load (Fig. 4).
BEFORE EVERY RIDE
This is not a comprehensive maintenance program. Montague recommends that
you have your e-bike tuned and safety checked by a bicycle technician familiar with
e-bikes on a regular basis but no less than annually. If you notice any irregularities in
your bike and/or its performance take it to a bicycle dealer before attempting to ride.
Overuse of any brake system may cause loss of control resulting in personal injury.
WARNING
An e-bike that does not work properly
can cause you to lose control and fall.
Do not ride an e-bike with a part that
is damaged; replace the part before
riding.
