Before Your First Ride - Wisper TAILWIND User Manual

3. Before your
first Ride
Have you ever ridden an eBike? - Set off for your first ride with the assistance level on zero to avoid.
surprise accelerations. Make yourself familiar with the sensation of riding an eBike in an area free of
traffic and other obstacles.
The different settings of your eBike are controlled with the buttons on the handlebars - read the
instruction manual on how to use and control the different assistance settings.
Are you familiar with the brake system? - In the UK our bikes are delivered with the right hand lever
operating the front brake. In the EU the right hand lever will operate the rear brake. Wisper electric
bikes are supplied with modern hydraulic disc brakes which are more powerful than you may be
used to. Practice using the brakes before riding on public roads.
Do you know how to use the gears and what their function is? - learn how to change gears and
practice riding in different gears in area free of traffic. Do not pedal with excessive force whilst
attempting to shift gears.
Check that all nuts, bolts and fixings are properly tightened to the correct torque values which can be
found on page 14.
