    GENERAL MUNICH N8C 36V For some bicycles, like low-step cruisers, stand-over clearance measurement cannot be used as they either do not have a top tube or it is sloped very low. For these bikes the height of the seat post should be used to select the correct size. You should be able to touch the ground comfortably while sitting in the saddle when it is at its lowest point in the seat tube.

  • Page 8: Transport

    2.4 Keys Each NCM E-bike comes with two copies of the battery lock key. Bikes with rim locks are delivered with extra keys (not the same key as the battery). Onboard charging of the battery will likely lead to infrequent usage of the battery lock key; it is needed for maintenance and repair, however, so please keep this in mind when storing the key.

    INSTALLATION AND ADJUSTMENT MUNICH N8C 36V 3.3 Seat Position To enable comfortable, fatigue-free and safe riding, the saddle and handlebar height should be adjusted to the body size of the rider. The saddle height is correct if the leg is near full extension while the foot is resting flat on the pedal in the bottom position of the crank cycle.

    INSTALLATION AND ADJUSTMENT MUNICH N8C 36V 3.4 Saddle Height The quick-release lever must require noticeable effort to put into fully closed position to prevent any undesired movement while riding. WARNING: An improperly closed quick release lever can open again or have limited ability to keep the saddle in place. This may cause the saddle to suddenly drop into the seat tube, potentially leading to serious falls and injury.
  • Page 13 INSTALLATION AND ADJUSTMENT MUNICH N8C 36V WARNING: Overuse or incorrect use of a front-wheel brake can cause the rear wheel to lift off the ground, resulting in decreased control of the bike or even flipping the bike and rider in the forward direction; this can lead to serious injury and bicycle damage.

    NCM E-bikes’ integrated lithium-ion battery packs are some of the highest capacity packs available on the market, with the Munich N8C storing up to 468Wh of energy. The packs consist of high-density Panasonic cells, meaning that our designs remain sleek and light without any sacrifices to battery capacity.

    6.1 General Requirements NCM E-bikes use metal shells to cover the electric components, so we strongly advise against the use of excessive water to wash the shells and parts around them. Use a soft cloth with a neutral solution to wipe the dirt off the shells. Afterward, wipe everything dry with a clean soft cloth.
