Pedal Assistance

What is pedal assistance?

The bike is equipped with 9 levels of electronic pedal assistance.
As you pedal, the motor will assist you and enhance your pedaling effort.
This will allow you to pedal much further and faster but use much
less energy and effort. It is also a great feature when climbing
a hill, as the motor will help to make any climb easy.
Turning pedal assistance on and off
When you turn on the power to the display, the pedal assistance will
automatically be set to level 0. By using the 'PLUS' and 'MINUS' buttons,
you can increase or decrease the level of assistance. You can turn off the
assistance completely by pressing the 'MINUS' button until the level of
assistance is at level "0". This will allow you to use the lights and functions of
the display, but ride the bicycle without any pedal assistance from the motor.
Pedal assist levels 1-5 are meant to be used more on flat
roads or paths, the higher levels (5-9) are more powerful
and meant for hills, headwind, or heavy loads.
If you prefer to ride slowly, it would be more comfortable
for you to ride in a lower power level. If you prefer to ride
faster, then you should increase the power level.
Derailleur functions
Your bike is equipped with a Shimano 8 speed derailleur.
Please choose the proper gear to match the riding terrain.
The use of a proper gear along with pedal assist or conventional
power will enhance your riding experience
We recommend checking your derailleurs functions at least once a month
