Any unapproved modication to the Me-Mover FIT 2.0 can make it unsafe and voids your warranty. A component that is not approved, or assembly that is not correct can put high stress on your Me-Mover FIT 2.0 or components. A frame,
fork, or component with modications could decrease your control and cause you to fall. Do not sand, drill, le, remove secondary retention devices, install incompatible forks, or make other modications. Before you add an accessory to your Me-Mover FIT 2.0 consult your dealer to conrm that it is compatible and safe.

HOW TO USE THE QUICK RELEASES
The Me-Mover FIT 2.0 has two quick releases. It is extremely important that these
quick releases are tightened securely before you use your Me-Mover FIT 2.0.
Front wheel quick release1 : used to secure the front wheel to the front fork. Steering column quick release2: used to adjust the height of the steering column. It
can be adjusted to suit a child or an adult.
To ensure the tightness of a quick release you need to:
1. Hold the clamp OPEN while you rotate the nut in a clockwise direction.
2. Rotate the nut until you cannot close the clamp anymore. Then release the nut slightly so you can JUST close the clamp.
3. To close the clamp push it rmly inwards.
WARNING!
Always ensure that the quick releases are securely tightened. If they come loose you must re-adjust the quick release to make it tighter. Never drive the Me-Mover FIT
2.0 without having tested that your quick releases are correctly mounted and secured.
WARNING!
To close the clamp you must use a fair amount of force, otherwise it may be too loose.

NOTE: When in open position, the adjustment screw needs to be adjusted so that closing

TO ASSEMBLE YOUR ME-MOVER FIT 2.0, FOLLOW THESE
STEPS:
1. Place the cardboard box on the oor and use this as an underlay during assembly.
2. Open the steering column quick release and pull out the inner steerer from the steering column. Pull the inner steerer out by 10cm. Tighten the quick release clamp
again so the inner steerer does not slide back down. Use a 5mm Hex Key to take out the end plug.
3. Mount the handlebar stem on the inner steerer and tighten the two screws using a 4mm hex key. Re-insert the end plug. Do not overtighten these screws beyond
5Nm.
WARNING!
Do not tighten the screws with more than 5Nm. 5Nm corresponds to a 20cm long wrench with a force of 2.5kg.

NOTE: The left brake cable loops under the stem from the left hand side. The right brake
cable loops under the stem from the right hand side. This ensures the cables are close to the frame; not interfering with the riders knees whilst riding.

6. Align the lock nut and adjustment screw and slide the cable into the groove. If necessary, pull the brake cable housing so more cable is exposed. Screw the lock nut and adjustment screw tight.
NOTE: Please take note of which cable operates the front and the rear brake when doing
this step. There may be local laws regulating how your brakes need to function.

WARNING!
The front brake will bring you to a sudden halt, so please use it cautiously. In wet or slippery conditions, and when carving around corners, please be very cautious with the front brake.
15. Brakes check: Please test the brakes are functioning properly.
Conduct a security test before riding. Test both the front and the rear brakes before getting on your Me-Mover FIT 2.0. Walk alongside your Me-Mover FIT 2.0 and try to brake with each brake individually. You should be able to stop the Me-Mover FIT 2.0 when in motion with each brake. The rear brake will bring you to a gradual halt.
WARNING!
Do not use the Me-Mover FIT 2.0 if the brakes do not work properly. If they are not working properly, please refer to the User Manual for instructions on how to adjust the brakes.
16. Mount the bottle holder (optional). Align the bottle holder with the xtures and
screw them in using a 4mm hex key.

QUICK FOLD INSTRUCTION
Folding
The Me-Mover FIT 2.0 can be folded in seconds to roll it along with you or for easy at-home storage.
1. Lower the steering column to the lowest position.
2. Remove the safety pin.

4. Gently lower the steering column. Mind your head while doing this.
WARNING!
Be careful with plastic covers of the transmission: they can crack if too much force is
put on them.

locked in place when folded.
6. To store the Me-Mover FIT 2.0, balance it upright on the transmission covers.

The Me-Mover FIT 2.0 oers a totally unique riding feel that requires only minutes to
learn. Follow these simple instructions to start riding your new Me-Mover FIT 2.0.
1. Wear a helmet.
2. Find an area without trac to practice in. Ensure that it is a straight, safe stretch with a at surface.
RIDING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING!
Do not try the Me-Mover FIT 2.0 in a crowded or high-trac area for the rst time.
instruction video
3. Adjust the handlebar height to a comfortable position before mounting the Me-Mover FIT 2.0. Release the steering column quick release clamp. This will allow you to slide the steering column up and down to your desired height.
Hold the clamp OPEN while you rotate the nut in a clockwise direction. Rotate the nut
until you cannot close the clamp anymore. At this point release the nut slightly so you can JUST close the clamp.
WARNING!
Always be sure that the quick release is fastened securely! For detailed instructions refer to “How To Use The Quick Releases” on page 6.
WARNING!
Do not heighten past the maximum mark. If the maximum mark on the inner steerer is visible you have heightened it too much. This will weaken the stability of the inner steerer and will risk injury and/or damage to your Me-Mover FIT 2.0.

Rotate counter
-clockwise
4. Make sure both pedals are in the bottom position.
5. Adjust the foot straps: loosen the foot strap by gently rotating the foot strap screw in a counterclockwise direction. Do not unscrew it entirely. Slide your foot onto the pedal until the ball of your foot is slightly ahead of the pedal axle. This will put less strain on your achilles tendon and calf muscle. Tighten the strap by rotating the foot strap screw in a clockwise direction. The strap
should t comfortably around your foot.
WARNING!
Positioning the ball of your feet behind the pedal axle can cause injury and/or cramp in your calf muscle over time. Make sure the straps are securely tightened.

6. Stand next to your Me-Mover FIT 2.0.
7. Grab the handlebar and hold ONE brake tight. Place one foot onto the pedal at a time.
For the purpose of stability, place your foot closest to the Me-Mover FIT 2.0 on the pedal
rst.
8. Keep holding ONE brake tight and when you have placed both of your feet on the pedals, lean gently to either side to nd your balance.
9. Lift one leg to the highest comfortable point
10. Release the brake. You will move slightly forward. At this point you should lift your other foot. Only concentrate on the lifting motion. Alternate lifting your feet as though
you are walking up a ight of stairs. Eventually you will lift your second foot before the rst
foot will reach the bottom of the pedal stroke. There is no need to forcibly push the pedal downwards because your body weight will automatically push the pedal down.
11. The higher the pedal rises, the lower the gear is. The position of the pedal stroke determines the gear.

WARNING!
Due to the very compact design and short wheel-base it is easy to do an unintended ‘wheelie’.
Always lean forwards with your arms exed when riding the Me-Mover FIT 2.0. Keep
your centre of gravity between the front wheel and the rear wheels at all times.

WARNING!
Although you can learn to ride the Me-Mover FIT 2.0 in minutes, do not ride on
challenging terrain or in high trac areas until you are practiced and have 100% control of the Me-Mover FIT 2.0. It is your own responsibility to practice
suciently on the Me-Mover FIT 2.0 before entering crowded areas. Always wear
protective gear, such as a helmet and protective pads. Never ride the Me-Mover FIT
