GHOST EPAC
4.1

Brakes and brake assignment

Your EPAC has one or two disc brakes which are independent of one another.
The left-hand brake lever operates the front brake.
The right-hand brake lever operates the rear brake.
Please ride very defensively for as long as your braking system
has not been run in.
Run your brake in. The rule of thumb is: perform approximately 30 braking
operations from a moderate speed (approx. 25 km/h) until you come
to a standstill.
Avoid long downhill riding for as long as your braking system
has not been run in.
As soon as your braking system has been run in, the braking force at your
disposal is very strong. If you pull the brake lever too strongly, it is possible
that the wheels will lock.
If the front wheel blocks the EPAC may overturn.
4.2

Gears

Your EPAC has either a derailleur, a crankset with a chainring and a geared ring
with 9 or 10 individual cogs so that you have 9 or 10 gears at your disposal,
or a hub gear with 8 gears or a continuously variable NuVinci hub.
You have 10 gears at your disposal. The gear assembly provides you with the
optimum gear for every speed and makes it easier to climb hills, for example.
4.3

Frame and fork

Your EPAC has a rigid or sprung main frame with integrated suspension fork.
On some models the suspension of the fork can be almost completely blocked.
