A fews things to know about riding your new e-bike
1. Start slow
We know — fast is fun. But e-bikes take a bit of getting used to. It may be tempting to ramp your
e-bike up to the fastest setting right away, but we recommend taking it nice and easy the first
few rides. Start on the lowest assist setting and learn the feeling of pedal assistance.
2. Brake sooner
E-bikes are heavier than normal bikes, and they move faster. More power, more speed, and
more weight. Once you get moving, you'll need more time to react, so you should start slowing
down sooner on your e-bike than you would on a normal bike. When you're getting used to your
new e-bike, start braking with a lighter hand and a gradual pull of the brake levers. And never
grab just your front brake lever — brake with both front and rear evenly.
3. You're faster than you look
E-bikes look just like regular bikes, so drivers and pedestrians might not expect you to be riding
as fast as your e-bike allows. Ride with extra care and pay greater attention to your surround-
ings.
4. All bike rules still apply
While your new e-bike will bring you a new level of freedom and fun, you're still responsible for
knowing and following all the rules of the road, paths, and trails in your area. Have fun out there, but
with greater speed, there is greater responsibility!
