The cargo on the vehicle should always be
properly secured. Use tension belts to fix your
cargo to the vehicle. In case of the Freestyle
version use all the available slots to secure your
cargo in the right position. The cargo box is fixed
to the main chassis with at least 6 screws. These
should not be loosened while driving. If you want
to store the box and use the Bike without box
loosen all 6 screws and take the box from the
vehicle platform.
GLEAM equips their models with Bosch E-bike systems and GATES belts. This chapter will give a brief
overview over these components.
For detailed information about the power pack, the battery charger, the on-board computer
Intuvia and the drive unit please find these separate manuals on our website:

8.1.
Drive Units
GLEAM uses the BOSCH Performance Line CX engine.
Do not open the drive unit yourself. The drive unit must be repaired only by qualified experts and
only with original spare parts. This will ensure that the safety of the drive unit is maintained.
Unauthorized opening will void warranty claim.
8.2.
Belts
For the GLEAM Cargo eBike, belts from Gates are
used. Proper belt tension is essential for optimum
operation of the Gates Carbon Drive System.
Lack
of belt tension can lead to tooth jump or
“skipping,” when the teeth of the belt slide over
the teeth of the rear sprocket.
Too much tension
can damage the bearings within the rear hub, can
cause the system to drag, and can increase the
wear of your drive system.
