• Weather
• Tire pressure.
To maximise battery life, we recommend that you use the pedalling assistance sparingly, varying
the level according to travel conditions (e.g. low assistance for flat or downhill stretches, higher
assistance level for uphill stretches or with headwind).
Additional measures to gain travel distance:
• Check tire pressure often using a pressure gauge, for example once a week.
• Choose a good gear ratio before stopping, so that you can start with a ratio that requires less
push from the motor.
• Set the gear ratios similarly to the way you do with a regular muscle-powered cycle, not
choosing only the highest ones, which will lead to being dragged by the motor.
• Ride smoothly, avoiding unnecessary stops.
• Minimise luggage to minimise the weight the motor has to push.
• Keep the battery indoors in case of low temperatures or frost, mounting it on the pedelec only
when you start the ride.
• Do not leave the battery in full sunlight. In general, do not park the pedelec in full sunlight.
Check the battery charge status on the battery indicator on the display. Further details are
available in the manual provided by the pedal assist manufacturer.
Keep in mind that other road users may not hear the oncoming pedelec.
On bicycle lanes or mixed traffic lanes, to avoid accidents, ride with extreme
caution and attention.
The bike is equipped with very powerful brakes. In case of problems with
management of the motor, brake carefully as the braking action will win over
the motor action.
Given the high performance of the motor, the risk of falling, especially on
slippery road surfaces or terrain (wet, snow, gravel, mud etc.) is much higher
than normal, especially on curves.
Always wear clothing that makes you visible to other road users. Always use
a helmet. We also recommend other protections, such as gloves, knee pads
and elbow pads. Use appropriate clothing for your bicycle to prevent injuries
to you and others.
Always use extreme caution when riding your Nytro Dust. Although the full
suspension gives you maximum grip and rideability, jumps and high speeds
over rough terrain can lead to your bicycle breaking down, resulting in safety
hazards and injuries.
