5 Getting ready to bike

5.1

Gathering first experience

It is recommended to gather first experience with the e-bike away
from roads with heavy traffic. Test the operating range of your
e-bike under different conditions before planning longer and more
challenging rides. Also try out the different assistance levels and
take some time to understand the gear hub.

When you first start using the e-bike it is recommended to
start in low gear and assistance level ECO or TOUR.
The motor output depends on the amount of your pedalling power
and the settings of the assistance level on the display. In general:
● Applying less pedaling power means lower assistance or
support.
● Applying a lot of pedaling power means higher assistance or
support.
As soon as you feel safe, you can participate in traffic with the e-bike
as with any other bicycle.

When you hit an object with your bike it can cause damage
to the front fork and the front wheel. Always be careful when
your ride against and over kerbstones. Adjust your speed.

When you ride over an object with your bike the object can
touch the steering shaft and cause damage to the steering

The operating range depends on many factors, such as:

shaft. Always be careful when you ride over kerbstones or
other objects and always take into account the relatively
small distance between the ground and the bottom part of the
steering shaft.
Be careful when touching the disc brakes after heavy use.
They can get very hot.
It is recommended that the rider uses a bicycle helmet.

Influences on the operating range

● Assistance level,
● Gear switching behavior,
● Bicycle tyres and tyre pressure,
● Age and condition of the e-bike battery,
● Route profile (inclines) and road or path conditions (road or
path surface),
● Head wind and ambient temperature,
● Weight of the e-bike, rider and equipment/luggage.
● For the same motor output of the electrical drive unit: The
less power or force you have to bring about to reach a certain
speed (e.g. through optimal use of the gears), the less energy
the electrical drive unit will consume, and the greater the
range of your e-bike battery.
