Safety

Helmets and Local Laws
Always wear a helmet when riding your eBike. Ensure that the helmet fits your head and is
securely tightened down. Before riding, read local laws and comply with all rules relating to
biking and eBiking in your area. If you attach a seat for children to the bike they must also be
wearing a properly fitted helmet at all times.
Pre-ride Inspection
Before each ride make sure to inspect your eBike to ensure there are no loose fasteners or
accessories. Make sure to specifically check that both the front and rear axles are secure. Also
make sure both the handlebars and the handlebar stem are not loose. Check the tire pressure
of both wheels before riding to ensure the tires are inflated to the recommended pressure
printed on the side of the tire walls. Pull the brake levers to make sure your brakes are working
properly and adjust if necessary.
Riding in wet conditions
This electric bicycle can stand up to light rain and small splashes, but is not designed to
withstand inclement weather, heavy showers, or submersion in water. ​ U se caution when
riding in wet conditions as it will take longer to use the brakes to slow down, and also
when turning as the tires may slip. The electrical components on the bike are not
waterproof, and water damage is not covered under warranty.
Riding at night
Riding at night comes with more risks than riding during the day due to decreased visibility so
riders are encouraged to exercise increased caution. Before riding at night make sure that
reflectors are installed on your eBike. For increased visibility also ensure the front headlight and
rear taillight are turned on and adjusted such that other people on the road can see them
clearly. Riders should wear bright colored clothing at night if possible.
Max weight
The max weight the bike can safely carry a total weight of 330 lbs.
If the rear rack is attached to the bike the max weight it can hold is 55 lbs.
Therefore if you have a payload that is 40 lbs the maximum rider weight is 290lbs.
Failure to adhere to these weight limits may result in damage to the bike, the rack, or
cause serious injury to the rider.
