Wheels
All wheels are equipped with high-quality ball bearings. They run very easily. The scooters can be equipped with
street tires (Schwalbe Big Apple) or knobby tires for maximum operational excellence in terrain (Schwalbe Black
Jack). On a smooth surface, the optimum tire pressure is 3 bar at the front and rear. The maximum permissible
pressure must not exceed 4 bar. Lugged tires can be used on off-road terrain with a tire pressure of 1.5 bar, espe-
cially on gravel-like surfaces. A lower pressure cannot be recommended.
Please note, during the journey and through the sun, the tire pressure increases because the tires heat
up. Check the tire pressure regularly.
The hose of the rear wheel has a cranked valve which points outwards. This should make it easier to attach the air
pump‘s valve socket. For the ER models, we recommend an air pump with flexible hose connection, as offered as a
go!mate accessory.
Brakes
The front and rear brake system consists of the brake lever on the handlebar, the brake hose and the brake caliper.
On delivery, the brakes are preset.
The TR models can be equipped with either one brake or two brakes.
The ER models always have two brakes. As standard we use one 140mm brake disc each at the front and rear. At
the front it can be replaced by a 160mm disc. We recommend the use of the larger disc for a weight of the rider >
100kg and if the scooter is used in a very mountainous terrain.
The brake system with two brakes has an enormous braking power, which must be used with caution and overview.
Generally the rear brake is on the right handlebar and the front brake on the left.
