  • Page 18: Your First Ride

    STEALTH ELECTRIC BIKES 2013 OWNER’S MANUAL YOUR FIRST RIDE BATTERY BREAK IN For the first 2-3 cycles, avoid heavy and sudden acceleration in order to minimize the load placed on the battery cells. This “break in” will help to prolong the life of the battery pack and at the same time help the cells to operate at their full potential.
  • Page 19: Regenerative Braking

    WARNING: The pressure on the pedals must be released when shifting gears. Failure to do so may damage your transmission. For pedalling, the Bomber uses a 9-speed sequential gearbox. To shift gears, the left hand grip may be twisted forward for a lower gear (when climbing hills) and rearward for a taller gear (for higher speeds).

    STEALTH ELECTRIC BIKES 2013 OWNER’S MANUAL Fighter WARNING: The pressure on the pedals must be released when shifting gears. Failure to do so may damage your transmission. The Fighter is fitted with a 2-speed internally geared bottom bracket. To shift gears, kick the button found on the cranks to the right for high range and to the left for low range.

As you ride, you will see the Ah slowly rise at a speed relative to the Watts that you are using. The higher the Watts, the faster the Ah will rise.
  • Page 22: Riding Efficiently

    RIDING EFFICIENTLY Both the Stealth Bomber and Stealth Fighter have the versatility to take you to places that you might not usually go. Being a hybrid, Stealth owners have a lot of flexibility in how they manage their power consumption for any given ride through different combinations of the pedals and the throttle.
  • Page 23 STEALTH ELECTRIC BIKES 2013 OWNER’S MANUAL brake pads. In emergency braking situations however, always use the hydraulic brake system. Stop/starts are probably the fastest way to deplete your battery. Power consumption is at its highest when accelerating off the line. Pedalling while gently rolling the throttle on is definitely the key here. This can certainly be backed up by watching the Watts on the display climb, peak and then drop off again as the bike picks up speed.
