  • Page 3 INTRODUCTION Thank you for purchasing a Converted System Summit conversion kit. We are confident you will enjoy the freedom riding electric brings. Bike/frame selection - The mid drive unit fits many different bike frames however some fit better than others and there are some which unfortunately won’t convert. Generally speaking a basic hard tail(no rear suspension) bike with a traditional tringle frame will be the easiest conversion.

    3. BIKE PREPARATION 3.3 Handlebars Some times it is easiest to remove everything off the handlebars before reinstalling in prefered order. The end setup of the handlebars comes down to personal preference, however you will no longer be running a front derailleur so the shifter can be completely removed. If your bike is set up with cable brakes*, it is advised to replace with the included levers which incorporate cut-out switches which cut motor power when the brake is operated.
