General operation 

Gear changing

If you are not yet familiar with a gear change, prac-

tice handling your new EBIKE, braking and negotiat-

ing curves but do it away from public roads .

Gear adjustment:

The gear must be adjusted regularly, depending on 

the type of gear usage . Let your dealer do all the 

gear settings .

Brakes

Your EBIKE is equipped with two independent 

brakes . The right brake lever works on the front 

wheel brake, and the left one on the rear wheel 

brake . You can change this order by changing the 

brake wires on the brake lever . Get this done by your 

dealer .

Hand brakes

Check the smooth functioning of the brakes before 

each trip . Contact the dealer if you detect slackening 

of the braking effect! The brake shoe or shoes are 

labelled . Always use spare parts of the same label .

V-brake

This brake is activated by pulling the brake lever at 

the handle bar of your cycle . Two brake shoes act 

on the rim edges . Due to its improved design, the 

V-brake achieves excellent braking values under dry 

and wet conditions, but holds certain risks, especially 

for inexperienced cycle riders . 

You can lose control over your cycle if you apply the 

brake in the wrong way . Practice applying this brake, 

particularly if you are a beginner . Ride slowly at first 

and use the brake lever carefully to familiarize your-

self with the response of the brakes .

Please contact your dealer to learn how to adjust 

the braking power and study the relevant instruction 

leaflet of the manufacturer .

Hydraulic brake

This brake is also activated by pulling the brake lever 

at the handle bar of your cycle . Two brake rubbers 

act on the rim edges . Instead of Bowden control 

cables, this brake has brake tubes that are filled 

with hydraulic oil . Consult your dealer and read the 

detailed technical instructions of the manufacturer . 

The hydraulic brake is very sensitive and can be 

exactly calibrated . You can test the brake response 

through a trial run .

Caution! Risk of fall and injury when applying the 

brake suddenly in emergency situations!

Roller brake

This brake too is activated with the help of the brake 

lever on the handle bar . The braking mechanism 

acts on the wheel hub and is well protected from 

bad weather . Please note that a large frictional heat 

is generated, resulting in heat accumulation, if you 

apply the brake for a long time (going downhill) .

Caution! Do not touch the heated hub body. 

Cooling-off time after prolonged braking when 

going downhill is approximately 30 minutes.

Disk brake

This brake too is activated with the help of the brake 

lever on the handle bar . The principle is similar to 

that of the rim brake, the only difference being that 

this brake sits on the hub . The brake pads act on a 

brake disk .

Load transportation

• 

When transporting loads, ensure they are fas-

tened well . Always observe the permissible car-

rying capacity of the luggage carrier! 

• 

Do not carry any bags or other objects on 

your handle bar! This affects the driving safety . 

Aluminium handle bars are not designed to sup-

port loads!
