Braking system

A ebike's brake system is primarily operated
using the brake lever on the handlebars.
If the left brake lever is pulled, the brake on the
•
front wheel is applied.
If the right brake lever is pulled, the brake on the
•
rear wheel is applied.
The brakes are used as an emergency stop
system and bring the bicycle to a halt quickly and
safely in the event of an emergency.
The brake is applied using the brake lever either
• with the brake lever and shift cable (mechanical
brake) or
• with the brake lever and hydraulic brake cable

(hydraulic brake).

The brake lever is connected with the brake via
a cable inside the cable housing.
