The auxiliary motor works as follows:
A sensor measures when effort is applied to the pedals, and the electronic controller then starts the motor.
The power of the auxiliary motor is regulated using the assist function. Using this, you can control the
power to match your needs while riding.
If you are riding uphill, you can open up the throttle to the full, whereas the motor can be disengaged
completely when riding downhill.
The electronic controller automatically disengages the motor when you stop pedalling or brake. The
controller also disengages the motor once your speed exceeds 25 km/h.
5. The Highway Code
No driving licence is required, nor does a crash helmet have to be worn. Equally, there is no requirement
for insurance or a number plate.
On the road, therefore, you are to all intents and purposes a cyclist. It is recommended you wear a bike
helmet.
6. Insurance
Given that for insurance purposes an E-bike is classified as an ordinary bike, it will normally be covered by a
standard family insurance policy.
However, you are advised to consult your insurance broker about the terms of insurance governing the E-
bike.
