INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

How to install the bicycle out of the box

1. Unpack the bicycle from the box and cut all the ties that held the bicycle together during
shipping.

2. Turn the front fork/suspension 180 degrees. If the fork cannot turn, loosen the screws holding
the handlebar stem and then turn the fork. Tighten the handlebar stem back after turning the
fork forward; such that the stem will protrude forward.

3. Install the handle bar onto the handlebar stem. An Allen key is supplied to install the handle
bar.

4. Remove the battery from the rack, so that it is easier to turn the bicycle upside down to install
the front wheel. To remove the battery, use the large keys insert them into the bottom key hole
and turn the key clockwise to release the latch holding the battery. While the key is turned,
gently slide the battery from the holder.

5. ! WARNING: Please make sure that the saddle and the handle bar are installed properly
before turning the bicycle upside down to install the front wheel. Ensure the weight of the bike
does not bend the rear mudguard.

6. Turn the bicycle upside down such that the fork is facing upward.

7. Check the pattern of the tire such that when installed they will match the direction of the rear
tires.

8. Install the Quick Release lever onto the front wheel. For the EG Milan, we suggest that you
install the Quick Release lever onto the opposite side to the Disk Brake Caliper.

9. Install the front wheel by placing the wheel between the forks. For the EG Milan: Please make
sure that the disk rotor slides in between the disk brake caliper. Loosen the brake caliper cable
using the supplied Allen key as necessary. For the EG Le Mans: Place the wheel past the front
v-brake. Lock in the axle by tightening the nut opposite to the quick release lever and then
locking in the quick release lever.

10. ! WARNING: Do NOT over tighten the quick release nut against the fork; for you will risk
bending this quick release.

11. Turn the bicycle back around on its wheels, and lower the kick-stand.

12. The rear LED reflector batteries are already installed, while the front LED light batteries are
supplied. To open the front LED light use a Philips head screw driver to slowly turn the lock on
the rear cover to access the battery compartment. Insert the supplied batteries in the direction
as indicated and replace the back cover.

13. Install the pedals to the bike. Each of the pedals has a letter indicating which side it needs to
be installed to. R=Right and L=Left. Install them using the provided wrench.

14. Install the white front reflector behind the front Fork / Suspension fork arc of your bike. Install
the front mudguard hanger onto the same screw.

15. Install the mudguard stays against the bracket provided on the fork/suspension. Place the
stays between the clip brackets and tighten the screw against the fork / suspension fork.

16. Place the small black plastic cover over the stem screw of the bike.

17. ! WARNING: Before riding the bicycle ensure the main Li-on battery is properly installed and
locked in before riding the bicycle. If the Battery is not firmly locked onto the rear rack, it may
slide off the rack and cause damage to the battery.

18. Insert the battery into the rear rack until a click can be heard. Ensure that the rails are properly
aligned below the battery. Ensure that the battery is locked in by lightly tugging on the battery
to ensure it will not slide out.

19. The EG Milan and the EG Le Mans have 2 separate keys. The bottom key is used to release
the battery and the top smaller key is to turn the electrical system of bike on or off. To turn “ON”
the bike’s electric system, turn the top key clockwise and then press the red “ON/OFF” button
on the meter located on the left side of the handlebar.
