4.2 What you should know about pedal assistance

•

The powerful support will make it easier to reach higher velocity than you

are used to. Try the bike in a quiet environment with less traﬃ c to get used

to your new bike.

•

Getting up on your e-bike is diff erent than on a normal bike. Driving off will

be easier and go faster. Get used to riding your bike before driving it in a

busy environment. We recommend to use assistance mode 1 for taking off

with your bike.

The bike will not cause extra resistance when the pedal assistance is switched

off . This way you will always be able to use the bike as a normal bike.

•

The pedal assistance depends on the power delivered by the cyclist. When

more power is delivered, the pedal assistance will support more.

•

The pedal assistance has been legally limited to a speed of 25 km/h. This

means that when a speed of 25 km/h is reached, the pedal assistance will

slowly decrease to zero.

The radius of the bike depends on environmental circumstances. The most

important factors are: weight of the cyclist, speed, inclination, tire tension,

backwind, switching gears and breaking and outside temperature. At

extremely low temperatures the radius is infl uenced negatively. Keep this

in mind.

delivered by the cyclist. Do not take off to enthusiastically.
