YOU STILL NEED TO KNOW ABOUT PEDALING ASSISTANCE
When the electric power steering is enabled, start the bike is different than a normal bike. You will
leave more easily. Do not let yourself surprised by the operation of the bike and before use in high
traffic areas acclimate yourself with it. We recommend that you use the assistance program 1 to start
when you are stationary.
When the electric power steering is disabled, the bike offers very little extra resistance. You can
always use the bike as a regular bike, even without a battery.
The pedaling assistance is legally limited to a speed of 25 km/h, which means that from 23 km/h, the
decrease pedaling assistance gradually disappear completely at 25 km/h.
The range of cycling depends on the circumstances. The values shown have been measured in
average conditions. The main factors are: the weight of the rider, driving speed, ribs in the course, the
tire pressure, the headwind, the number of gear changes and braking (in town) and the outside
temperature. When temperatures are very low, the radius of action undergoes a very negative
influence. Keep this in mind!
Some models of electric bicycles have the motor positioned on the front wheel (Fig. 1), the other
models the engine is positioned in the center of the frame, under the bottom bracket (Fig. 2) or on the
back wheel (Fig. 3).
