Getting Started
4. Getting started - Safety check
Although your bike has been subjected to a final check during
assembly and by the dealer, the transport and the time might
have caused changes.
Therefore, before getting started the first time and later on before
every ride, you should consider some important things and check
the bike short.
1. Make yourself intensely familiar with the Pedelec and the
functioning of the electric drive, before the first ride in public
traffic.
2. Check the correct setting of the saddle and the handlebars
(see section 7.1. Saddle and handlebar/stem adjustment)
3. Check the correct function of the brakes
4. Check the air pressure and the profile depth of the tires
5. Check the lighting system for proper operation
6. Check the tightness of the bolts and the wheels
7. Check the minimum insertion of the seat post
Caution: Do not start when you in one of these points identify
deficiencies. A defective bike while driving can cause serious
accidents and endanger your live. If in doubt, please contact
your dealer or our technical hotline.
Your bike is claimed in everyday driving through extreme weather
and road bumps. Through this constant dynamic loads experienced
all parts of the bike material fatigue and wear. Therefore, examine
your bike regularly for wear of the components and other changes
such as scratches, cracks or discoloration. These symptoms may be
signs of damage and a future failure of the accessory. Bring your bike
to your dealer regularly comply the plan of inspection, so he can fix
or replace these parts.

Behavior in road traffic
5. Behavior in road traffic
Due to the electric auxiliary propulsion you reach high speeds
and accelerations much faster than you are used to with a
regular bike. Therefore, you should intensively familiarize
yourself with the Pedelec only on a traffic free road before you
go in public traffic. During driving of the road you should follow
these tips:
■ Always wear a bike helmet during riding
■ Make yourself familiar with the traffic rules and stick to the rules
■ Be ready to brake at any time and expect misconduct of others
■ Drive defensively and be considerate to other road users
■ Drive where it is always offered on the bike paths
■ Always keep your bike in a perfect condition
■ Use your bike only in accordance with its intended purpose
(see chapter 13."normal use")
■ Don´t use while driving a mobile phone and a headset
■ Be sure to observe the maximum weight of 145 kg of the bicycle.
(see chapter 11. Technical Data)
■ Please let check regular, according to the recommended service
intervals your Speed Pedelec by an authorized workshop

Once you have turned on the drive (See also Section 6.3. Display) and you start pedaling the engine will
support you as long as you pedal, up to a max. speed of 45 km/h
This limitation of the support, the B Speed moves within the legal framework of the Road Traffic Act and
is still considered as a normal bicycle. It is exempt from compulsory insurance and do not need a license.
Likewise, it is not compulsory to wear a helmet, although we strongly recommend it for your own safety.
The five (different) levels of support you can select according to the external circumstances (e.g. level four
(high level) on climbing uphill or headwind) or your personal preferences. Please note that a high level of
support also means a higher consumption of current and reduces the range of the system and the battery.
When you drive faster than 55 km/h, the automatic energy recovery (technical recuperation) is activated.
The motor operates as a generator and charges the battery again.
If you ride beyond 60 km/h (e.g. downhill) the system may enter auto-protection mode. In this condition the
system is still alive (e.g. display lights up, but the motor output is temporarily shut off, and will not
automatically restored.) The system will shut off when the bike stops.
To restore the system from auto-protection mode to normal operation, press the power key to power on
your bike.
The Biactron system (on B Speed) is designed to perform at vehicle speeds not exceeding 60 km/h.
Speed beyond 60 km/h may cause permanent damage to the system.
The Speed Pedelec is equipped with a torque sensor in the dropouts, which is
electronically controlled. This sensor accurately measures
the change in tension force of the chain at every step (left or right)
and informs the system about the force you exert during pedaling.
A computer in the control unit then calculates the values, with which
the additional thrust of the motor it is very sensitive and harmonious
controlled.
During pedaling, the torque and the pedal sensor measure very
sensitive and exactly the drivers input and enables the motor
controller to operate the additionally support of the Motor
The thrust itself can influence even on the five levels of support
(Turbo, High, Medium, Low, Ultra Low).
This makes the system very efficiently and economically, saves
power consumption and maximizing range.
The additional speed sensor controls the power of the electric
motor to zero once you have reached 45 km / h. From this and a
higher speed the Speed Pedelec works like a conventional bicycle.

But this also means that you have either to pedal or press
the TURBO button on the display bracket to retrieve
power of the electric motor.
This button functions as a starting and pushing aid to max.4
km/h it helps you to accelerate from a standstill. It was designed
as an aid when starting uphill or for the case that the wheel has
to be pushed.
6.2 Levels of support
The propulsion system provides five levels of support available.
Depending on topography, weather conditions and your own
feelings, you can choose the power of the engine by using the
PLUS (+) and MINUS (-) keys and the ~ (TURBO) button on the control
panel (see Section 6.4 display.).

When ~ (TURBO) button is pushed without pedaling,
“throttle” mode provides motor output for < 18 km/h at H; < 12 km/h at M; < 4 km/h at L.
6.3 Display/User interface
The Display (with user interface) is your gate to the electric propulsion system
(Image 1)
With the display you start and control the electric system.
Yo u ca n st a rt t he sy st em with or without inserting the E-KEY.
When the key pairing function is enabled, the bicycle has its own individually
programmed display. When enabling the key matching function in setting motor lock,
only the same ID of E-KEY will work with the bike. It is not possible to activate your
Pedelec with the E-KEY of another bike. There are two same E-KEY on a bike after
manufacturing.
Every press of a button will be confirmed with a short acoustic signal.
As soon as the E-KEY is inserted into its display, the system starts.
With the E-KEY already in its display while the system is off, you have two ways to
start it:
1. Push the power button
the system will make a check for the first 3 seconds - now the system is ready
or
2. You start pedaling the bike and trigger the automatic start sequence. A system
check is started for the first three seconds, after which the system supports you.

6.4 Battery
Your Speed Pedelec has a high quality lithium-ion battery of the newest
generation. For technical details, please refer to Chapter 11 Technical
data.
The status of the battery, you can always check on the LED on the
charging socket of the battery. Press the button at the charging
socket and the LED lights on either red, orange or green.
The battery is protected automatically from overheating,
overloading and deep discharge. That makes it, in practice very
easy and simple to handle.
Nevertheless, you should consider some important things in order
to maximize the life and performance of the battery.
Since the lithium ion battery has no memory effect, you can charge
it at any time, even if it is not completely discharged. In practice,
it has been shown that it is even better to charge it again after short
distances of a few kilometers.
Your battery has a lifetime of 500 charging cycle. One charging cycle
means a full charge of the battery (0-100% capacity). Partial loads
can be done more often.
When the battery for a long time (more than 2 months) is not used,
it should be recharged as a low self-discharge is normal. Store the
battery, if possible, in a dry, cool and dark place. The ideal storage
temperature is between 5-20 ° C.
Avoid exposing the battery to direct sunlight over a long time.
Temperatures over a longer period of more than 45 ° C or below
- 10 ° C can cause permanent damage.
In winter, you should never start with a cooled battery. The
capacity of a cold battery is significantly reduced and accordingly
with a lower range.
A battery which is exposed a long time to frost, should be gently
heated by the ambient temperature of a heated room, before
starting.
Caution! Never place the battery on the heater.
If you need to park the bike outside for a long time in the cold season,
remove the battery and store it in a heated room. Because the battery is
very easy to remove, this will be no problem.

7. The Bicycle
All other accessories of your Speed Pedelec are high quality, conventional
bicycle components whose handling and operation should be
explained here briefly. Important information regarding the
adjustment, operation and maintenance of the bike and its
accessories are summarized here.
You will also find further information in the accompanying user
manuals of each manufacturer.
7.1 Saddle and handlebar adjustment
The B comes in only one frame size. The adjustment to your
body size and their needs will be made on the saddle, stem and handlebar
adjustment, which normally do the authorized dealer.
In order to readjust by yourself or in the case of a driver change
the settings are briefly described in the following lines.
Caution: All work described require mechanic experience
and appropriate tools. Use to tighten the screws a torque
wrench and never exceed the maximum torque of the
screws. All the necessary tools and information to the
torques can be found in chapter 11. Technical Data.
Adjustment of the saddle height:
The optimal saddle height is if you touch the pedal with the heel
of your stretched leg, when sitting on the saddle (Image 30).
Or when you bring the ball of the foot to the center of the pedal,
your knee should be slightly bent (Image 31)
Loosen with a suitable allen key the seat clamp screw and move
the seat post with the saddle at the proper height. Align the saddle
with the frame using the saddle nose and the bottom bracket or
top tube as references.
Fasten the screw of the seat clamp again and check the correct
height of the saddle. Repeat the process if necessary until you find
the correct saddle height.
Image 30
Image 31
The Bicycle
34
The distance between saddle and handlebar (by pushing the saddle
forward or backward) and the saddle angle are adjusted
by the saddle clamping screws (Image 32) of the seat post.
The saddle should generally be positioned horizontally.
Saddle Clamping
Screw
Attention: please pay attention to the approved torques
when tightening the saddle clamp screws to the correct
torque (see chapter 11 Technical data).
Image 32
Caution: The saddle with the seat post may never be
installed over the minimum mark on the seat post. During
riding operation, the post might break or the frame might
be damaged.
Handlebar adjustment
The position of the handlebar depends on the Seat position you would
like to have on your bike. It is generally true that your seat position is
more sportive the further your upper body is bent forward. This leads to
better aerodynamic, but puts more stress on your arms, wrists and your
upper body and a worse comfort.
In order to optimally adjust the handlebars to your needs, the stem is
adjustable in the angle. (image 34)
This will achieve, if desired, more upright and relaxed riding position.
Your dealer will be happy to advise and install the most appropriate
stem for your needs and will adjust the handlebar position.
If you should like to change the position after some time, please do the
following:
Loosen with a suitable wrench the clamping screw of the angle
adjustment of the stem and adjust the angle of the stem according to
your wishes. (image 35)
Tighten the clamp screw of the stem firmly again and please make sure
to use the correct maximum torque of the screw (Chapter 11 max. 9,5
Nm) .
Please note that now the handlebars, the brake levers and the gear
shifter have changed their position.
Image 33
Image 34
Image 35
Caution: Check the tightness of the handlebar. In no
case it may be able to twist.
Would you change now the position of the brake levers and the
gear shifter, loosen the clamp screws and twist them according to
your wishes. Then tight the clamping screws again. (image 36)
Image 36
Caution: Don´t exceed the maximum torques.(6-8Nm)
7.2 Headset
In order to steer easily and safely, the fork´s bearing in the frame (headset)
must be of easy motion and without play.
During driving, dynamic loads caused by extremely unevenness
routes put a lot of stress on the headset and it is possible that it loosens.
Therefore, a regular check is indispensable.
Pull the front wheel brake with one hand and push the bike forward and
backward. If you notice a movement between headset and
frame, the headset has to be readjusted.
Headsets

Attention: The adjustment of the headset requires some
experience. It is the best the dealer should do this.
If you should make the adjustment by yourself, make the following steps:
1. Loose with an allen wrench, the lateral clamping screws at the stem,
where the stem is fixed on the fork stem.(Image 38)
2. Now you can adjust the headset play with the top screw of the
headset (see image 39), by turning the screw with a 6mm allen key
clockwise, until you don´t feel play anymore.(Image 39).
Image 38
Attention: The adjustment of the headset requires some
experience. It is the best the dealer should do this.
3. Rearrange stem and handlebar in the direction of travel and
retighten the clamping screws firmly.
4. Pay attention to the maximum torque of the screws, which may not
be exceeded under any circumstances.
5. Control the play again and repeat the process if necessary.
Image 39
If it’s not possible to adjust the headset, this may have many
reasons. In this case you should definitely contact an authorized
dealer.
The Bicycle
Caution: Finally, check the tightness of the stem. A loose stem is
dangerous and can lead to an accident.
You can check smooth running by lifting the front of your bike and letting the
handlebar swing to the left and right. The front wheel has to be able to move
freely and without stopping. If you feel slight stops in the movement, the
bearing is worn and the headset has to be replaced. This has to be done
quickly by a dealer.
36
Feel light grids, the tax rate are worn out and need replacing.
The let most immediately by the dealer perform.
7.3 Suspension fork
Your Pedelec is equipped with a high-quality suspension fork which
increases your comfort and the safe handling of the bike. The fork
is set at the factory and ready to run.
A lock out lever that sits on the right side of the fork crown, you can
lock your suspension fork (image 40). This locking mechanism
should only be used on smooth, flat roads. On bad roads, the spring
should function and the lock mechanism should always be open.
To keep your fork for a long time working, it should be regularly
maintained. Some basic maintenance tips you should heed. Clean
the smooth surface of the stand pipe of the fork after every ride
with a clean cloth and some water. Afterwards spray the tubes with
some lubricating spray or some hydraulic oil, so it can smooth
deflecting and the bearings remain always lubricated.
Image 40
Caution: You should never clean the fork either with a
steam cleaner or with harsh detergents. Always follow
the maintenance and care instructions on the
manufacturer's instructions supplied with the bike.
The Bicycle
37
7.4 Brakes
Your Pedelec is equipped with a high-quality hydraulic disc
brake. The disc brake is characterized by a very good braking action
even by moisture and other bad weather conditions. The brake is
very low maintenance.
The brake consists of a brake lever with a master cylinder, a hose
cable made of plastic and the brake caliper and the disc mounted
on the hub. The brake works with a special, non-toxic mineral oil.
The oil pressure created in the brake lever by operating it is
transmitted via hose cable to the brake cylinder and effect the
contact pressure of the brake pads at the brake disc.
Image 41
Attention:
New brake pads must be run in so that they can achieve their
optimal deceleration values. By braking at least 30 times from
approximately 30 km the brake pads will achieve their maximum
brake power.
Break control: The left hand break lever control rear wheel break
and right hand break control front wheel break.
Not properly run in brakes do not reach their optimal deceleration values and
prone to vibrations and loud squeal.
The brake pads and rotors must be regularly checked for wear.
If Disc and brake pads are worn, they will need to be replaced.
Changes in the brake performance with loosing brake power or you can push
the lever through to the handlebar without any braking effect, air could come
into the brake system and this must be removed by bleeding the brake. That
and the replacement of worn brake pads and discs should be done by an
authorized dealer.
Attention! Soiled brake pads and discs can reduce the effect of the brake
substantially. Prevent in any case, while cleaning the bike and lubricating the
chain that oil or other liquids can contaminate the brake pads and brake discs.
Contaminated brake pads cannot be cleaned and need to be replaced. You can
clean the disc with brake cleaner or warm water and a little detergent if
necessary.
For more information on brake, brake pad and brake disc and the wear limit of
them, read the operation manuals supplied by the manufacturer.
7.5 Drive and gearshift
38
The Bicycle
Your Pedelec is equipped with a high-quality 10-speed derailleur,
currently the most efficient power transfer on the bike. These gears
will help you to always use the optimal transmission (pedaling
cadence) independent of terrain (flat or hilly area) and independent
of weather (Tail or Headwind).
That means that you are able to pedal always with an optimal
cadence of 60-80 crank revolutions per minute. The complete
system (image 42) is composed of the bottom bracket, the crankset,
the rear derailleur, the chain, the gear shifter and the 10-speed
cassette. With the gear shifter you control the rear derailleur,
which ensures that the chain can move on the sprockets of the
freewheel and the translation changes.
Your dealer has checked your bike before the handover and
adjusted the shifter. Through the first mile under stress, however,
the shift cables could lengthen slightly and the shifter must be
readjusted.
With the adjustment screw of the shifting lever (image 43), you can
readjust the tension of the shift cable. With the two positioning
screws on the rear derailleur, you can adjust the lower (h screw)
and upper end stop (l-screw), to make sure, that the chain cannot
get between pinion and drop out or between pinion and spokes of
the rear wheel.
The chain should be cleaned and greased regularly (especially after
driving in the rain), so it runs as quietly as possible, the friction
losses are as low as possible, and the lifetime is maximized. Clean
the chain regularly with a clean cotton cloth and lubricate it
afterwards.
Some minutes after you have oiled the chain rub it with a cloth to
remove superfluous oil from the outer surface.
Image 42
Image 43
The precise adjustment of the derailleur is difficult and
should better be done by a mechanics. If you have any
problems with the adjustment of the shifter, please
contact your dealer.
39
The Bicycle
Since the chain is one of the wear parts on your bike, it should, if it is worn
to be replaced. A worn chain deteriorating the shifting characteristics, and
leads to increased wear on the chain wheel and on the sprockets of the
cassette.
The exact control of the chain should be carried out at the dealer,
who has the necessary tools to measure and replace it.
Caution: A poorly riveted or badly worn chain may break and
cause serious falls.
You will find more information in the enclosed operating manual of the chain.
The Bicycle
40
7.6 Wheels and tires
The wheels are extremely stressed parts of the bike that make contact
with the road, provide the propulsion and buffer the road bumps. Due
to this heavy use, they should be regularly monitored and reviewed.
All wheels are manufactured with great care and precision.
They consist of the hub (ball bearing hub in the front wheel and electric
motor in the rear), the high-quality 2 mm stainless steel spokes and
rims.
In unlikely cases of radial and axial offset or broken spokes, the wheels
should be repaired or re-centered immediately.
This should be done by an authorized dealer.
For removal and installation of the wheels due to a puncture or in the
case of transportation you take the following steps:
Disassembly of the rear wheel
■Shift the chain to the smallest sprocket on the free wheel
■Turn off the electric drive system and disconnect the motor connector
below the right chain stay of the frame
■Remove the screw on the mounting bracket (cable guide) below on
the chain stay(Image 44a+b)
■Loosen the axle nut of the motor with a 19 mm wrench
■Remove the screw of the locking washer (Image 45) on the left side of
the axle (drive direction) and remove the screw and washer
■Now pull the wheel out of the dropout, thereby pivot the rear
derailleur backwards

Tires
The tire provides grip and traction, and contributes significantly to the
smooth running and comfort by absorbing small shocks.
The size of the tire can be found on the tire sidewall printed specifically
in millimeters and inches. At B Speed plus and B Speed, the size 24 x
2.15 inches or 55 - 507 is mounted. That is, the tire has a diameter of
507 mm (24 inches) and a width of 55 mm (2.15 inches). Depending on
the air pressure, and width of the rim, the tire can vary in width around
2-3 mm.
The recommended operating pressure range is between 2.0 bar (55psi
load) and 4.0 bar (55 psi load)
Regularly check the correct tire pressure before every ride and pump
up, if necessary.
The bike is standard equipped with an inner tube with Schrader valve.
So you can check and inflate the tire at any gas station.
Image 47
Caution: above-or below never exceed this recommended
range. The tire and the tube can be damaged and this may
lead to sudden loss of air with significant risk of accident.
Regularly check the tires for cracks and control the tread depth. If cracks
have formed or a foreign object has damaged the fabric of the tire or the
tread depth is no longer sufficient, replace the tires for safety reasons.
If in doubt, ask your dealer. He will verify and if necessary, change the
tire.

In the case of a flat tire, you do the following:
You can use for tire mounting plastic tire lever.
1. As described above dismount the appropriate wheel like in the
instructions of this manual.
2. Deflate the tire and push a tire lever under the tire wire opposite
the valve and lever the tire over the rim flange.
3. Push the second tire lever in a distance of approx.. 10cm from the
first one between tire and rim and lever again.
4. Now, you can generally lever the tire over the whole circumference
of the wheel by moving the lever and the inner tube can be
removed.
5. Dip the disassembled and inflated tube in a water bath to discover
the leak on the rising air bubbles.
6. Repair the tube according to the instructions on the repair kit or if
necessary replace it.
7. Check the tire for sharp objects that could have caused the puncture
and remove them. If the fabric of the tire is damaged, replace it.
8. Start the mounting of the tube, start by inserting the valve into the
valve hole in the rim and inflate the tube with very little air pressure
until it is wrinkle-free.
9. Now mount the tube with no creases under the tires and deflate it
again.
10. Now , starting opposite the valve, lift the tire wall over the flange
of the rim and pull it deep into the rim and lever the rest of the tire
by hand over the rim edge. Use no tire levers, as this is a risk of
damaging the tube.
11. Now push up the valve, so that the edge of the tire reaches at the
valve area the edge of the rim.
12. Pull the valve and inflate the tube to the tire manufacturer
recommended tire pressure.

7.7 Luggage carriers
Your Speed Pedelec is equipped with a high quality, stable and durable
aluminum luggage rack. The rack is suitable for all standard panniers.
Please note, however, the maximum load capacity of the luggage rack
of 20 kg. With weights over 20 kg the luggage carrier may not be
loaded.
Image 50
Caution: Please ensure that you do not reach the
total permitted weight in the case of luggage transport
Attention: Please note that the extra weight changes the
handling of the bike and the braking distance is extended.
45
Transport of the bike
8. Transport of the Speed Pedelec
You can transport your Speed Pedelec easily by car or train. To
transport by cars, we recommend to use a bike rack for the trailer
hitch, which is specific designed for the e-bike transport and suitable
for larger loads. Which carriers comply with these requirements, you
can ask the retailer.
Not recommended is the transport on the car roof. The higher weight
and the specially shaped frame tubes make it very difficult to fasten
the bike securely. In addition, permissible maximum weight and to
tightly sized brackets and rails of the carrier limit secure
transportation.
You should definitely remove before transportation with a rear carrier
the battery, the display as well as other non-fixed accessories such as:
Air pump and luggage bags Additional protection should be given to
electrical contacts on the display holder and the battery connector on
the frame with for example a plastic bag to protect them from
moisture and rain. By the air stream, humidity can be pressed into the
electrical contacts.
If your car is big enough, the best is to transport it in the inside. There
it is optimally protected.
The transportation by air is almost impossible, unless you want to
transport the bike without the battery. The battery is classified as
hazardous by the airlines and will not be transported. If in individual
cases ask the airlines, under which circumstances the transport of the
battery may be possible. However, it can be quite expensive.
If you need further information, you will find it in this manual, see
chapter 6.4.4. Transport of the battery

Maintenance, care and storage
9. Maintenance, Care and Storage
Maintenance and care
Regular maintenance and care guarantee a longer lifespan of your
high-quality Pedelec.
You should carry out simple cleaning and care works yourself regularly
and let the dealer do the necessary inspections.
Never clean the Pedelec with a strong jet of water or a steam cleaner.
The high water pressure might squeeze water into the bearings, motor
and electronic contacts and will destroy these parts due to thin the
bearing grease, corrosion and short circuits.
Clean the bike with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Please make sure
that no electrical contact gets wet.
The contacts can be maintained and conserved from time to time with a
little care oil (e.g. 1Step Finish Line) preservation. Contact spray is too
aggressive and don´t preserve.
You should repair varnish damages at once. All parts liable to corrosion
should be maintained and preserved by appropriate means.
The chain should be lubricated regularly like all other movable
mechanical parts such as the joints of the rear derailleur.
Caution: During cleaning and lubrication, avoid oil and fat
on the brake pads and brake discs. The braking effect might
deteriorate and represent a serious risk
.
Always ensure that the tires are inflated within the manufacturer's
recommended operating pressure, which
can be found printed on the on the tire sidewall. He should
be by no means over-or under-steps.
The entire electrical system of your Pedelec as the motor, the
sensors, the wiring and the battery is maintenance-free. If you get
unexpected problems with the system, take note, that you have
to contact or technical hotline (see also Chapter 1 Introduction)
or an authorized dealer.
It´s important of using "original" components from the manufacturer
if they want to change any components on their bike. Or contact our
official dealer if they want to make any changes or replacement of the
components self changes is not recommended.
47
Maintenance, care and storage
Caution: Do not open the motor, the display or the battery.
It is dangerous and the guarantee expires immediately.
Storage
The mounting of the bike should always be in a dry, covered place to
minimize the effects of weather and avoid direct sunlight for long
periods.
If you do not drive in winter, you should consider the following tips:
Store it cleaned, lubricated and well preserved in a dry place and
cover perhaps additionally with a tarp. Conserve the electrical
contacts through some suitable care oil.
Winter storage in the garage is only partially recommended. By the
dissolved salt in the condensed water coming with the car in the
garage, the corrosion can be increased.
The battery should be stored separately and optimally at a
temperature of 10 ° to 15 ° Celsius in a dry place. Please fully charge
it before the first ride in the spring. After storage for more than two
months, it is advisable to recharge the battery (see chapter

Wear
14. Wear
Your Speed Pedelec as technical product consists of many components,
which are subject to normal wear due to their function. Therefore, all the
following components should be regularly checked and if necessary
replaced immediately:
1. Brake Discs and pads are claimed during each braking operation and worn
appropriately. Therefore, they must be periodically reviewed and if
necessary, be replaced immediately.
2. Tires and tubes are subject to a function-related wear and should be
checked regularly. Regularly check the air pressure and tread depth. The air
pressure should always be at the manufacturer's recommended operating
pressure, which is printed on the tire sidewall.
Is the profile of the tire no longer deep enough or the tire has cracked
sidewalls, it should be replaced immediately.
3. Rims and spokes are stressed at every braking or driving over an obstacle.
Regularly check the concentricity of the rim and the spoke tension. If the
wheel has a radial or axial offset, it should be readjusted immediately. In the
event of breakage of a spoke, the broken spoke should be immediately
replaced and the wheel has to be centered.
4. Chain, sprocket, chain wheels and derailleur rolls wear out normally at
every time. Regular cleaning and lubrication of these components can be
extended considerably their service life. They should, however, if they are
worn be replaced immediately.
5. Shifting and brake cables must be maintained regularly and replaced if
necessary. Especially the bike is often parked outdoor and exposed to the
weather.

17. FAQs:
How far can I travel with one battery charge?
This is dependent on the temperature, the topography of the
terrain, the technical condition of the total weight of the bicycle.
Tires with low air pressure or high weight or driving in hilly terrain,
reduce the range (see chapter 6.4.2.).
Must the battery be empty before I can charge it?
No, you can charge the battery at any time, even if it is only partially
discharged.
How can I protect the bike from theft?
