• Brake Switch
The right-hand brake lever of cable-activated brakes contains a
switch that cuts off the power to the motor, and switches the motor
to generation mode as soon as the right-hand brake lever is pulled.
• Wiring Harness
The wiring harness links controller, brake switch, battery pack and
motor. It runs through the frame and is linked to the battery pack
via the docking station in the rear rack.

2.2 Assistance/Regeneration

The system has four levels of assistance. When the system is set to assistance, the electric motor
drives the rear wheel and assists you in your pedaling.
Additionally, the system has four levels of regeneration. When the system is set to regeneration,
the electric motor is used as a dynamo and generates electricity for charging the battery pack.
Going downhill, you can reduce your speed by regulating the amount level of regeneration as the
created resistance acts as a motor brake.
CAUTION. The re-generative braking mode should not be used as a substitute for use of brakes
to control speed or stop.
The tables below give an indication of the effort that is compensated in the different assistance and
regeneration levels. The real percentages of compensated effort depend on the software settings of
the bike.
